Anyway one minute into the third he decided to quit, which of course I wasn't happy about but I understand why he was frustrated and happily I'll take the win. The score was 74-33 at that point (and I wasn't exploting either btw, I had already hit 6 three's at that point).
yeh sorry bout quitting on ya jimbo, i dont do it often and when i do its cause im pissed off badlly...
nothing was gooing for me in that game, passes wouldnt drop, back violations u name it....but what really got to me was budinger, his shots where going in way to easy every bloody time and i just reached boiling point... u did play well and of course u wernt cheesing niy it makes u feel like ure getting cheesed on when shots are falling dat easy but not 4 u.. but in IMO its to easy to shoot in this league and its just suit some people more than others depending on players and users etc..
No I feel you man. If I was down that much I may quit as well - it would be very frustrating. At least you didn't "drop out" and pretend your side had accidentally disconnected like some members do.
Besides it happened in S2 as well when I versed J_Keefy I think, and I can understand why you wouldn't want to keep playing when you're down 40.
In regards to Budinger - you were leaving him wide open though. For the season he hadn't shot that well, only 10/30 on three pointers, but you gave him 3 wide open looks so he knocked down all of them. He does have an easy jump-shot on him though, with a nice release.
I saw your over-time game against the Pacers, how many overtimes did that go to?!
Dwight Howard with 63 points WTH!! :O
Looks like it'll be my high-octane offense against your half-court defensive slugging team
We'll have to wait a while though, looks like Ian and Michael haven't started their series yet.
Hmmmm Pacers toeing the PIP line there. 82 of 120, -FTs, 82 of 101. But minus FBP, 66 of 101, or do the FBP come off both totals?

Not quite sure where you get the idea that I'm a slow team Jimbo! I got a defensive team, but I rack up the points quick when I'm flowing. In fact you and I had the EXACT same amount of fastbreak points in our round 1 series'! While my teams ratings say otherwise, I have quite a good offensive team me thinks

Anyone around for a game?

Interesting question.
Maybe FBP should be discounted from both? Took me a while to get my head around whether it should be or not - but ultimately we are trying to see how many PIP are scored in the half-court (to measure how much people exploit).
So I guess the total point total should not have FBP or FT! In which case he would be 82/85 in the paint? WHAT!
Now I'm getting confused.
And I don't mean you're a slow team. I meant we have very different game-plans and you get your shot in the half-court set a lot more patiently than I
I'm not sure how Free Throws can be taken off the total fairly considering only a percentage of free throws comes from fouling in the paint. Towards the end of a game if you are behind on the scoreboard teams foul to stop the clock and send you to the line. You can get fouled on jumpshots. I don't think free throws should have anything to do with the formula for working out paint abuse. Also, all this subtracting x from a and then y from a+b might be a bit too much. Take the FBP off PIP and if that total is > 70% of the total score then they are over the limit.
Fair call Michael let's leave it at that.
Just played Ben and took a 57-47 lead going into half-time. He rallied back with some strong defense in the third and I got within 3 in the 4th but couldn't quite get ahead.
Well played. I have to say my biggest gripe is with your off-ball defense, almost exclusively used in the 2nd half. But a well-deserved win, major kudos for coming back after I took a double digit lead in the second quarter.
With me picking up the win the last game we played I guess it's only fitting you take this one, only days before we meet in the Western Conference Semi-Finals in S2.
I must admit I probably do use the offball a little more against you since it's typically alot of moves to get to the hoop, but I also tend to do it so I can bring the extra player over to help cover, in this case Josh Smith. Doubling him up alot since you went at least into his hands on most of your plays particularly in the last. Was a great game! I think I got out 41-31 in the 2nd, but you pegged me back and yeah, took a large lead! Things seemed to clog up a little and I found some space though in the 3rd which got me back in it and then we mostly traded buckets in the last few minutes.
Look forward to our series! Going to be tight, like all our games2 completely different styles, each equally hard to stop at times as was evident with our swings in that game today.
blazers v warriors still needs to be reversed so i get win..
