The result had no impact on my match up, neither will the Euroleague basketball result do even though I have both Barcelona and Real Madrid to win and cover the 9.5, but so does my opponent to.

------------------

NBA question is settled, Lakers advances to the In season tournament semifinals in Vegas, while both LeBron James and Kevin Durant scored 31 points each, but Durant played a couple of minutes fewer than Lebron, and that brings the correct answer of the question to; Lakers win, and Durant outscores LeBron.

I'm still yet to score any point from this round 

That was such a dominating second half for the Bucks, that's surely set us for very nice match up vs the Indiana Pacers.

---------------------------

Maybe I'll tail you on the Phoenix Suns moneyline here, the Lakers have started the first quarter has the better side halfway in, so I'm looking for a better value or atleast a positive advantage +handicap advantage for even Odds.

I expected this game to be the lowest scoring one of the the knock out round, at least at half time, as I've got them on the Under for the first half, but that's a lost cause already.

Despite the being quite physical both teams playing some great defensive plays, I'm extremely surprised by the offensive effectiveness of both teams too, Milwaukee with quite of 3pts shot fall for them, Lillard 4/4 3PT, A.J. Green 3/3 of 3PT as well, the high scoring nature of this fixture is literally about the extremely great scoring percentage from both parties so far.

It was the night for the underdogs last night, could we be in for another doubleheaded stunners today too ?

The complex nature of in season tournament for its lose one lose all nature makes it a fairer game for the underdogs too, as they don't need to be good for a 7 games stretch all they need is just one good game and they advance, and we could all agree that both Pelicans and Indiana Pacers had a good night and the results in a 7 games contest would very much likely have been different still, regardless of them winning the first game on the road or home court.

Arsenal with that last minute victory from Declan Rice, who's fastly becoming the difference maker for the team when they deeply need to get a miracle, not many people would have score this coming, as just a very few of the answers were for Arsenal to win by a goal margin, and I'm very sure if the question were about how many goals Luton would score, none of the answers would have been 3 goals+

I missed the deadline for transfer and subtitution for this mid week, I guess it's probably because there have not been a midweek GW for quite a while, it is such an awful miss for me, because I have Matty Cash who is playing against Man City team have been scoring quite a lot these, I could have brought Mitoma in for him at least or try to attack the Arsenal's easier fixture against Luton. I hope this doesn't have much of a negative impact on my gameweek points.

Not much of time for my team to regroup properly after the weekend, they had show for another matchup starting today, the coach can only hope for the best out of this one honestly.

That said, that was some bold statement win by team Cryptofrka for the week whoops! I would have said that was some Burnley - Sheffield United scoreline but then, his opponent was relegation-esque team, could there be more to expect from them ? Or is it just some fluke ?

NOT go the Full Distance: 6

Game 1:  31, 25'
Game 2:  31, 29'

It is easier said now that Liverpool are struggling to keep a clean sheet, and Darwin Nunez is an absolute waste crosses and square plays, because I’m very sure TAA is often as much a set-piece taker as Trippier is, except from the opposing flank where Robertson comes in, and I would say TAA is a better attacking option than Trippier, of cause Trippier have the most points and will always rack in more bonus points due to the metrics used by FPL to awards Bonus points.

Getting a draw now would be a miracle for me, wouldn’t you agree, I really had my hunch on Bukayo Saka to score, but I just brushed it off and went for all no, since Saka haven’t being forthcoming lately, but I wouldn’t banked on Watkins for real and I thought he wouldn’t even make the match day squad, let alone playing all 95 minutes, and hoping for BTTS - No, between Man City and Tottenham today given how other results have went would literally be asking for too much, I however, can make do with a point here, if granted the miracle 🤞🏾

I went for Kelleher and I already had Tsimikas, I must say the first day in the office for the former is not so bad after all, he’s only conceded 3 goals against Fulham.

I can’t wait to see what the future holds for him 🌝🌝

EDIT:

I’m sure there is some weirdo TAA owners with either captaincy or triple captain chip played, FPL update will sure do it’s thing in a few hours.

FPL official site update is so shitty when comes to players update, especially with injuries and knocks, I could sworn Watkins wouldn’t play or start the game today but I left him on the starting line up and Hojlund as first choice substitution and that seems to be paying off already.

Yeah, expecting him to get relevant returns in prior weeks would have been ask for too much of him to be honest, in 5 of his team’s last 6 matches they’ve played against West Ham, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man United and Liverpool, with such fixture even any Man City defender might now have yielded a better return, and he was out injured in the first 3 of the last 6 matches mentioned, so I believe he’s a great set of fixture right ahead that could be making him worth the while and hassle.

I don't mean to take the efforts and resistance supposedly shown by the Clippers away from their win tonight, but the Wariors are becoming a more shitty team as they day goes by, they can effortlessly score 70 points in a row, but they can't defend those points being conceded back, so what's the point and they're becoming of the worse clutch team in my opinion, they've two of their last 4 or 5 games after leady by atleast 20 points, and more than 15 points into half way into 3rd or even the 4th Quarter, you really can't win a championship when you're that awful defensively, and Steve Kerr needs to figure out  not just a bench unit that can only function with Draymond, Curry or Klay on the floor, he needs a unit that either hold it down and get going without any of these guys on the floor!

My biggest flex for the game week is that I sold Veltman for Ben Mee, while taking a point hit, and it’s already paid off, because even with an injury plagued squad, Veltman can’t get a slot in the starting line up. Although too bad that Watkins like wouldn’t be playing and my first substitute can only come off the bench.

I couldn't agree more with you, The 76ers gave Celtics a good run for their money, and It was quite an interesting game to see with the level of competion showed by the 76ers, they were all over the place and exchnaging 3's with Celtics , and some times they just exchange layup or keep trade basket trading by any other means, at some point I doubted if it was indeed Beverley, Melton and Morris, even moreso Mo bamba with those 3 deep 3s and all.

It would have been very much merited if the 76ers had won the game.

Neither Joel Embiid nor Tyrese Maxey could make the roster today, the 76ers starting five are Tobias Harris, Pat Bev, Morris Snr, Paul Reed and  Melton, I really don't know how they can handle the Boston Celtics at the TD Garden withou their best duo, this could easily be a blowout win for Celtics, except they get complacent and undermined the 76ers, if not this game should be over before the end of the 3rd Quarter, imo.

No one ever knows especially If they're getting to find out via FPL website, it's often just a fluke and players usually plays in most case scenario whenever there is "75% chance of playing" tag on the player, but in the case of 50%, according to FPL site it's a muscle injury and has 50% chance of playing, I believe this is something a bit more than usual and Watkins just might not play, even though it's not a serious one and only misses this GW.

Despite knowing that Monza haven't lost a game at home this season, I was still expecting Juventus coming in as though they own the place and dominate the game in its entirety, but Monza weren't just going to settle for a loss, as they've just equalized against Juventus to have the game at one goal apiece, and that pretty much seem like all Juventus would have to settle for since they couldn't bury the game earlier on.


EDIT:

What an epic ending to the game, Juventus were still able to get all 3 points at the end of the day, and Monza parity barely lasted for 3 minutes.
