Actually scratch that, I just chucked some coin on GSW so they better win.

Heavily in the Cavs' corner myself so hoping they can steal home court today. Reckon if the Cavs win one of these road games they'll win the whole thing, they are by far the best perimeter defensive team the Warriors have faced these playoffs (outside of Memphis prior to Tony Allen getting injured) and if James can fix his jumpshot which has been off this post-season, they wont stop him.

Lets be honest James can dominate anyone if he is in form, he is to big for the guards to cover, and too quick for the big guys. Its a team effort.

I get the feeling Cavs will win one of these first 2 away games, but GSW should be pumped up for this one.

Cavs may be one of the best perimeter defensive teams, but they are up against the best perimeter offensive teams, Curry can hit a shot from anywhere, all he needs is an inch.

I think the Cavs might actually let him drive by screens and hit mid-range jumpers or layups, they'll try and stop him from getting threes up, they'll live with him scoring 30+ from limited attempts from beyond the ark.

Thats true, but if they focus too much on limiting Curry beyond the ark, they may end up leaving Thompson open too much.

If either Curry or Thompson get firing from beyond the ark, Cavs will have some issues, but if both a hitting shots they will be tough to beat.

Bring Delly on to knock one of them down, that'll fix the problem

Jittery start by Kyrie, always a step behind Curry on defense, both teams looking nervous.

Irving needs to to focus, if he gets caught up in the nerves he will go to water and he wont get better until they get back to Clevland.

Kyrie trey!!

 

[MightyMark]

Kyrie trey!!

James coming out strong

 

[TheOz]

Cavs bigs on top early, should keep Thompson and Mozgov in as much as they can here.

 

[TheOz]

JR Smith, I love this man. Hoping he gets on one of his massive shooting streaks here. DELLY, assist for Bron for three!

 

[TheOz]

JR SWISH!!!!

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

I got the cavs +6.. Keep this up so I can throw it all on Freo and Fyfe going bananas tonight

 

[MightyMark]

Cavs defense is holding up, Splash Bros have only managed 2 3 point attempts between them

Down to 5, Cavs missing some decent looks and free throws.

This game will come down to the last term.

 

[TheOz]

SHUMP FOR THREE!!! Carn Cavs retake the lead.

 

[TheOz]

Delly has struggled on defense in this game.

 

[TheOz]

JR MUTHAFARKING SMITH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TheOz]

Will take an OT miracle here for Cleveland to pull this out. They can still win the series assuming Kyrie is not done again with injury, they choked today down the stretch.

They will be better for the experience though.

Its hard for a team like Clevland to play away on their first finals game. Crowd would have been hostile, and no doubt that would have got in the minds of some of the less experienced Clevland players.

Next week will be a good test though.

Hey guys, I am half way through my first Supercoach season against a league of swine who are currently in their 5th year in a row participating in that same league. Much to their disgust, I top the standings which has lead to a mini mutiny against me. We play on the rule set that we have a Waiver Wire & rolling lock out and when a player is released, he goes onto this waiver wire for 36 hours and whoever the highest person on the waiver wire who swaps for the upcoming FA, gets the player. At that point, the team who claimed said player then moves to the bottom of the "WW" -that is my understanding.

With the bye rounds coming up, I am trying to get the step up on my despicable opponents & my confusion comes at which transactions actually affect your placing on the "WW"

For Example.

1)Are players traded from 1 team to another team then affect where on the Waiver Wire?

2) Are players swapped / claimed which results in an immediate swap from Free Agency o(i.e. on gameday) & NOT claimed on any sort of waiver, affect your place in the "WW"?

3) So essentially i am asking, are players that are quite literally claimed when under "Waiver" status the only transactions which affect your place on the waiver Wire.

My situation is I currently have "Big Willy" Minson on my bench along with the injured Swallow, Rosa & Greenwood. Currently all Free Agents are able to be claimed immediately as Free Agents and I have just notice that I will only have 9players to play in next weeks Bye Round, compared to my upcoming opponents 12.

If I swap Willy Minson for Hill from WCE today as a Free Agent, will it affect my standing in the WW?

My reasoning for needing this clarified is that I think a lot of "weaker spined" opponents will delist quality players in an attempt to pick up a cheap win over the bye rounds & the bye weeks will be a great week to add some quality for nothing into my side

Probably a long winded way to ask this question, but the ramifications of the answer are extremely important in me maintaining my league leading status against these pitiful "opponents".

I thank you in advance....

I did ask the others in the league this question, but they are unwilling to help the leader of the pack, apparently

1. No
2. According to the rules as written, no, but I've not tested it.
3. Assuming 2 is correct, yes.

May be a silly question but how do you delete/deregister a team?
