I don't recall a postseason in which the top seeds went in looking so vulnerable. The E Team and the Invaders enter with a combined four straight losses; the underdogs Swat and Nitecaps have won four straight between them.

The E Team faces the Nitecaps in a rematch of last year's first round, when the XMan got help from a DLee DNP en route to a title. What'll it be? Revenge? Or more of the Waterfront Cafe Curse?
No team has won three titles in the storied history of the league; Dave has a chance.

Another original, the Swat Team, must turn a three-match streak into five to get past the expansion Invaders, the only team in the field who won't be a repeat champion with a title.
Mark just got a little healthier with Granger and Nash back. Sean has been tough of late, but he may need some luck, too.

Here we go.

Tentatively...

LBJ, DLee, Monta, Aldridge, Lowry, Humphries

Two guys picked up in a supplemental a week and a half ago? Seriously? Is it possible to win a title that way?

Swat sez;

Argg, Rondo hurtin with various ailments effecting his play (0-2 in 30 minutes last game) but expected to play, Curry has sore elbow but expected to play, Devin Harris hammy's bothering him but expected to play, THE HORRA!

Harris, Curry, Durant, KLove, AlJeff, VC

What the fuck anyway?

Ticket likes Swat in the nuclear reactor #3 slot-the one that uses uranium recycled from nuclear weapons. That's straight from the (Jason) Hart. Invaders is my sentimental favorite simply because I don't want Swat or E-Team to catch up to my two titles, let alone Nitecaps, who after missing the playoffs in my first nine seasons, could win a league leading third title.This was the only year everyone competed.

Great. LBJ gets 43 but the ShitHawks can't even stay within shouting distance and South Beach Boy takes a seat early.

Meanwhile, overtime gives the XMan's Rose five extra minutes and a chance to catch up.

Bastards.
