Padang is the only n00b team to back their shit up. But their claim on the conference will be truly tested in the next few games when they take on Chiang Mai and Manila in back to back games. After that, if they go 2-0, NO one will be able to say the conference isn't theirs.
But until then... they'd better be careful they don't eat turf.
Im betting on Manilla to take it. We just played them hard and they still managed to pull out the win. I think the current top eight will be the playoff teams Im just not sure how things are going to balance themselves out.
From a personal point of view the Bucks just held the two best teams in the division to a combined 2 point win so im looking forward to the rest of the season. Of course I dont think who wins zeta will matter as I think Stucknut are destined to be promoted this year if only to create tension with Winona about who the farm team is.
Its the depth thats so important to them. If you watch the first three quarters of our game with Manilla youd never think they were going to win. Then the fourth quarter comes and the fact that theyre solid from top to bottom kicks in and they win it. Its good roster management and unless you can match it no amount of gameplanning can overcome it.
