Dalton can not be very happy with the way this match is going. The Dream Crushers are just flat out getting the job done this week. Having several weeks to prepare for the semi finals sure has paid off for the Dream Crushers. They have found a way to project 52 plays on the week. And for a team that averaged 20 points a play on the year. Overcoming 52 plays could be virtually impossible.

Matt is down 55 but has a chance to close that gap tonight. Matt has 5 going up against Nates 4. So far this match has gone a little bit like I projected. Matt has more plays and Nate has higher player average. This match is too early to predict on who will win and get to play in the championship next week.

To early in this match to really see were things are heading. Tonight Dalton has a chance to bring it back since he has 2 more plays then the Dream Crushers. If Dalton brings it back and ties or takes the lead tonight then this match could be just like all the rest for Dalton, come down to the bitter end. But if Ritter keeps the lead or some how pulls away and creates a larger lead then at that point Dalton can start getting scared.

WOW! What a start for Matt. He has to be pissed at his team after waiting a week to play and then they show up with a 7.8 player average. But we all know he will turn that around quickly. Nate on the other hand has to be on cloud 9. Projected to be behind by 5 or 6 plays. Nate figured he was a long shot to win. But after that Monday night, he has to have a different perspective on the match. ITS ON, is what Nate has to be thinking.

I found out this morning that stats don't stop accumulating once the regular season is over. The only stats that stopped are the PF and the PA and also the moves number.

What a match we had with Dalton and Danny! Danny never gave up and that made Sunday a lot of fun. I am sure after Thursday when Dalton was up 172 he thought he had won and was ready to start planning to play The Dream Crushers. But then Danny made a crazy comeback and gave Dalton all he could handle on Sunday. 

Match #1

#1 Ritter vs #4 Dalton

I try and think of what to tell Dalton on his match vs Ritter but  I believe Nick Nolte said it best in Blue Chips. ..... Alright boys, we got a job to do, we got a job. Now god damn it were not going out there to make a good show or just put up a good fight! Were going out there to beat the best god damn team in the country right now. Now let me tell you something boys, you may not know this but I know it,  I have been there beore! There is enough talent on Dalton's lineup right now to beat The Dream Crushers. Now boys, The Dream Crushers are sitting there in there locker rooms wondering what the hell were going to do. Well I will send a letter over to Ritter and tell them exactly what were going to do!!! Because, it's not what you do! IT'S HOW YOU DO IT!  Now were going to go nose to nose with them on both ends of the court and your going to play better then you ever dreamed of. Because god damn it, THAT'S WHAT I DEMAND! Alright, LETS GO!!!

Match #2

#2 Matt vs #6 Nathan

We have a great match on are hands with these two. Its a battle of higher plays vs higher player average. Matt all year has been able to out play his opponents by getting more plays and skillfully and strategically pulling out all stops to get the win. Nathan on the other hand has had a very solid team all year. He will use his acquisitions when need be. But his players have produced very highly for him and it has been hard for him to drop players at certain points of the year. But its PLAYOFF time and if you don't have 2 floaters then your not maxing out your plays. Nathan with 2 floaters this week though should only produce 42-44 plays, while Matt will have some were in the range of 46-48.

Baring some unforseen crazy turn of events. It appears Nathan has won his playoff round and moved onto the Semi Finals were he will be facing Matt. So here is a preview of your matchup with Matt next week.

6-8-8-5-8-5-8 = 48  using 6 acquisitions
6-6-8-4-8-3-8- = 43 using 7 acquisitions

So who is who you ask? Well Matt is the 48 and Nate is the 43. Nates player average has been better but Matt has alot more play projection then good ol Nate. So Nate will have to be very strategic next week vs Matt. If he has one ore even two guys sit out for rest then he could be screwed.

Danny has put together the best comeback we have ever seen!
After Thursday Danny had 324 to Daltons 496. That is a 172 point deficit.  Dalton can not be too happy about having to battle it out on Sunday. But this is something Dalton has had to do all year and he has come out on top most of the time.  I will personally be glued to this box score most the day. Playoffs do not get more exciting then this fellas! Well maybe if it was one of the next 2 rounds it would be more exciting. But you know what I mean! This is awesome lol.
