Match Comments

Pleased to have reached this round however looks a step too far. Can it be an all Bucknall final?

James (Albuquerque) Nov 16 - 10:29 PM

This is the deepest run for both teams in the Holyoke.

Allan (Quincy) Nov 16 - 10:42 PM

A rare meeting for two teams that met in 8 of their 14 previous matches in the now defunct Western Conference...

Allan (Quincy) Nov 16 - 10:43 PM

This will be difficult regardless

John (Sheboygan) Nov 20 - 8:51 AM

Notes
This shows a preview based on your Top 7 players. Your top 7 players (and your opponents) may not be playing. The effective overall and effective grades INCLUDE BOTH FIT and HOME COURT additions.

This is a basic prediction and does not mean you will win if you get the prediction checkmark. In fact, you will likely lose. This is a simple totaling of the checkmarks where we double the count for OH and MB since you have two of those on the floor versus the other positions.

We are interested in adding to this concept though like using a Top-14 where we double the weight for the starter but add the numbers for the backups as they will play in a session too. Thoughts or ideas?

ELO
For ELO, 145 Rating points are added to the home team's ELO rating to determine the chance of winning.
