Ticket asks how do you remember?

'08 Ticket vs M&M or Swat

'07 Caps over rookie Hammer. The Alcindor rookie title's denied by an original league member who never made the playoffs before...A Picture of Dorian Gray for any Oscar Wilde readers.

'06 E-Team beats Panty to dodge a decade of play without a title. Anything's possible in Hoops Social since Zaza, Mike James, Webber, Matrix, Gasol, RIP raise the HS trophy with streamers falling.

'05 P4's title never in doubt over decimated Ticket. Better remembered for the P4 T-Mac and E-Team brown outs leading up to the Finals.

'04 Panty joins M&M and JRB in "titles" owned. Ticket benches Maggete after a nine in the match before the Finals who then blew up and would have changed the outcome of the three game series.

'03 JRB tops M&M before these savvy selection committee guys would go on hiatus to satisfy a seven year itch never scratched. Otherwise why would they return?

'02 Swat's victory over E-Team ultimately results from Jason Hart scratching the Big Dog's eye in practice.

'01 Triple Crown Winner Panty beats rookie P4 and pockets over $1,300 of $1,500 available before the Mighty Mexican whines for socialistic hand outs since delivered by the treasurer.

'00 M&M beats Ticket, who sweeps JRB in the first round. Has that happened since then?

'99 Ticket's win over DBS "just luck," says E-Team. Half of Ticket's roster shows longevity. Seven years later Grant Hill's on his way to the conference Finals against Finley, unless AI can upset the first seed Spurs beforehand. Kemp and Admiral are toast after this season. DBS lost Zo just before this series.

'98 M&M over E-Team with Polynice.
The former model who does it with mirrors, E-Team wins the title a decade later with Zaza.

Ticket says
Scouts of M&M and Swat speculate who they prefer to face Monday. E-Team is in awe of Swat's C-Note greatest back court in Hoop Social history, with an insignificant reputation mark having no bearing on his prediction of Swat being the team to beat.

Ticket acknowledges that Swat advantage, but also recognizes M&M's most under-rated non-all star Baron holding his fantasy own with any 50 guy on a given night. Even though M&M lost his second stud Dirk, Ticket finds the upside on J Rich and Dunleavy greater than Sheed, who enjoyed a near forty in RIP's absence and the diminished Jammy upon C But's comeback.

Ticket says Panty beat P4 in '00, M&M beat Ticket in '01, and Swat swept hi-scorer Ticket twic in the first round before losing to JRB in '98, so M&M beat E-Team in '97. Should Swat beat M&M this weekend, he'll become the first to overcome an underdog's long shot to pull that off twice.

Bryant has 15 technicals, and one more means an automatic one-game suspension.

P4-
So, in plain english, who is playing who for what, beginning tonight. Thank you!

Hoop Social said...

P4-JRB for $50. See unchanged lineups in NIT lineups post. In plain English:

Hoop Social said...

Ticket says
Swat 230-129 M&M+Baron,Camby

Swat's six year absence from a title shot's just about over.

In the $50 one game takes all NIT:
JRB 172-136 P4 + LBJ, the Davidson cheerleader.

The NIT champion is...JRB 172-158 P4's Vogue cover girl LBJ nearly matches her age 22. The German's opted to extend their season another match by failing to catch West's return from an injury in match 40. That's what a hearty competitor's supposed to do. As for the barely Hoop Social JRB, a losing season ends on a promising note. Look for that NBA draft fanatic to get his Hans-on-brough next year.

Swat 230-198 M&M. Swat seeks to go 3-1 vs Ticket in playoffs. M&M meets E-Team in a post season rivalry dating back to this league's inaugural season when M&M won the first of his two titles. All four playoff teams have now met and M&M's the last to fall from an unbeaten status between them. This fact dignifies the history of three title winners who in E-Team's case, won a title with Mike James,Zaza and Webber; in Swat's case, won a title by a poke in the Big Dog's eye, and in Ticket's case, won against a DBS coach who's only appeared in the playoffs once. Thanks for a swell return and a formidable history Mo.
