PREMIER LEAGUE



#4<a title='Ruddy's Cavaliers (Peter Rudd)' href='http://games.espn.go.com/fba/clubhouse?leagueId=23530&teamId=20&seasonId=2013' target='_top' style='outline-width: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #000000; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px; background-color: #d0d0d0;]Ruddy's Cavaliers[/url](Ruddy) 1487 defeated #1<a title='Jasmine's Mob (Jasmine Johnson)' href='http://games.espn.go.com/fba/clubhouse?leagueId=23530&teamId=5&seasonId=2013' target='_top' style='outline-width: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #000000; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px; background-color: #d0d0d0;]Jasmine's Mob[/url](Jasmine) 1342
Wow, what an upset. I did publicly rate Ruddy as a top 2 side before the season began, but who would have thought Jasmine would not make the grand final, especially the way her team performed all season long. Unfortunately injuries hit hard at the wrong time, and the Mob could not keep up with Ruddy's rampaging Cavaliers, extending his current win streak to 7 games! Top scorers for Ruddy were Durant (226/4), Lillard (202/4) and Iguodala (178/4); and for Jasmine, it was JR Smith, of all people leading the way (189/4), supported by Paul (152/3) and MGasol (146/3). So, with Jasmine being defending champ, we will have a new champion this season.






#3<a title='Team HEAVER! (Dave Tong)' href='http://games.espn.go.com/fba/clubhouse?leagueId=23530&teamId=13&seasonId=2013' target='_top' style='outline-width: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #000000; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px; background-color: #d0d0d0;]Team HEAVER 1666 vs#2<a title='Kings of Karlos (Sean Minetti)' href='http://games.espn.go.com/fba/clubhouse?leagueId=23530&teamId=10&seasonId=2013' target='_top' style='outline-width: 0px; font-size: 12px; color: #000000; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px; background-color: #d0d0d0;]Kings of Karlos[/url](Karlos) 1240
Both of these guys have been extremely consistent high performers over all 3 seasons thus far, with both finishing in the top 3 in all 3 seasons. But neither had won through to a grand final yet, let alone won the Chip, so this was a huge game to give one of them that chance this season. And it was Heaver who has taken that chance and finally has his shot at the chip in a 50-50 game. Karlos pointed out today, that this loss has continued his horror run in the finals, where he has not won one single final in the 3 seasons. Best scorers this week for HEAVER were Bryant (270/4), Horford (212/4) and Hickson (182/4) and Lowry (171/4); while the best for Karlos were KWalker (171/4), Curry (168/4) and DWilliams (167/3) - who were also the onlycenturionsfor him this week.






Other games of note:
Dabombers d Owen 1470 - 1270
Maggots d Fez 1660 - 960









DIVISION 1:



#1 Didn't Draft Durant (Doh)(1783) def #4 Team Stowie(1350)



<p style='text-align: justify;]In a comprehensive victory by over 400 points it is the number one ranked team, the guys who didn't draft Durant who move into the championship game. They have been the team to beat all season and deserve their shot at the championship. It was some of the season trade ins who led the way this week, notably Jennings(239)&amp;hellip;.(you can thank me for that trade, although I can't complain as I received Parker). Other leading lights were Horford 212 who could come back and haunt the dunkanauts next week. Thad Young (203) was a great pick up off waivers while any mention of leading scorers needs to include Lebron(198) who was still a little quiet by his standards.

<p style='text-align: justify;]Team Stowie would have been a little disappointed not to make it a closer contest but he has had a great season and will be looking to go a couple of games better next year. Ellis(198) has performed well all year while Iggy(178) and Teague(166) made solid contributions this week.


<p style='text-align: justify;]Good luck to Didn't Draft Durant(Doh) in next weeks championship playoff.



#3 Mildura Dunkanauts (1524)def #2 The Sausage Arm Butchers (1430)


<p style='text-align: justify;]The Dunkanauts return to form has come at exactly the right time after a little form slump towards the end of the season. Next week's championship game proves to be a ripper with Durant vs James, Horford vs Griffin and Jennings vs Lawson. I can't pick a winner as both teams have been standouts from the start.

<p style='text-align: justify;]For the dunkanauts it was Durant(226), Lawson(211) and a surprising standout week from JR Smith(189) who were the main players to get the win for Mildura.

<p style='text-align: justify;]A great season by the Sausage Arms after a few injuries could have easily derailed them early was brought back on track by some handy trades. Lillard(202), Aldridge(171) were the top scorers with Lowry and Irving also contributing.


<p style='text-align: justify;]Good luck to Mildura Dunkanauts in next weeks championship playoff.
