TOP SEVEN STUDS, ROUND OF 16
| OWNER | ROUND | SELECTION | PLAYER | TEAM | SEED | GAME3_SCORE | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Jake | 5 | 50 | Kerry Blackshear Jr. | Virginia Tech Hokies | 4 | 39 |
| 2 | Shawn | 2 | 12 | Tre Jones | Duke Blue Devils | 1 | 35 |
| 3 | Jake | 3 | 30 | Carsen Edwards | Purdue Boilermakers | 3 | 35 |
| 4 | Luke | 5 | 44 | Ryan Cline | Purdue Boilermakers | 3 | 34 |
| 5 | Shawn | 1 | 9 | Grant Williams | Tennessee Volunteers | 2 | 33 |
| 6 | James | 1 | 2 | Brandon Clarke | Gonzaga Bulldogs | 1 | 32 |
| 7 | Stu | 2 | 13 | Jarrett Culver | Texas Tech Red Raiders | 3 | 32 |
Jake was close to getting another of his players to advance, but VT lost to Duke because Tre Jones finally showed up, hitting 5 or 6 threes, I am not going to look it up. An overtime game where both teams almost reached 100 accounts for the Purdue and Tennessee studs, including an unexpected performance from some white kid named Ryan Cline, who of course belongs to Luke. Luke also got one last big game from another white guard, as Pritchard played all 40 minutes for the Fighting Ducks. Brandon Clarke continues to prove a worthy #2 overall pick, and continues to be on James' doomed team.
TOP SEVEN DUDS, ROUND OF 16
| OWNER | ROUND | SELECTION | PLAYER | TEAM | SEED | GAME3_SCORE | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Alison | 4 | 34 | Zavier Simpson | Michigan Wolverines | 2 | 0 |
| 2 | Bob | 8 | 78 | Braxton Key | Virginia Cavaliers | 1 | 0 |
| 3 | Gavin | 7 | 61 | Nassir Little | North Carolina Tar Heels | 1 | 5 |
| 4 | Dan | 5 | 46 | Jon Teske | Michigan Wolverines | 2 | 11 |
| 5 | Bob | 3 | 23 | Nick Ward | Michigan State Spartans | 2 | 12 |
| 6 | Gavin | 8 | 80 | Garrison Brooks | North Carolina Tar Heels | 1 | 12 |
| 7 | Dan | 3 | 26 | Kyle Guy | Virginia Cavaliers | 1 | 13 |
Simpson went 0-fer against Tech, and Key played but didn't accumulate any stats against Oregon. Little apparently was in poor health, and of course this is always described as "the flu", but I would bet he and others on the team had norovirus because some were reported to have vomiting.
Cool. Meanwhile, Kyle Guy appears on the dud list again. This bitch set an ACC record for 3PT percentage this year (43%), and from the second half against Gardner-Webb to halftime against the Ducks, he had missed his last 16 3's.Roy just said that Cam Johnson is currently throwing up in the locker room.— Craig (@carolinamarch) March 30, 2019
Last-pick Jake is still in the lead! He gets another game out of Purdue's Edwards, who has now equaled Jake teammate Ja Morant with 117 fantasy points, both ranking just 2 points below Oregon/Luke's Pritchard for the highest scoring player thus far. Jake's other remaining player is Michigan State's Winston. If both lose in the Elite 8, Jake will gain another, let's say, 40 points, and his total will stop around 666 points. That's if both teams lose. If Purdue and MSU meet in the final, he'd get up around 740 points. So who can overtake him?
Alison has three remaining players, from Gonzaga, Michigan State, and Kentucky. All could reach the Final Four. Her players are averaging 15-20 points per game. So yeah, she could beat Jake. Shit, math. Uhhh, best case scenario is KY(20+20+20)+ZAGS(20+20+20)+MSU(20+20) for a total of 160 on top of her current 540 is 700. She's a contender.
Luke has Reid from Kentucky who seems like a real jerk, Cam Reddish, who didn't play in the last game due to some kind of injury, and Cline from Purdue, who's averages 17 per game when you remove his aberration against Tennessee. Well, all three could make the Final Four, but the Reddish injury is concerning. Perhaps Luke is a PRETENDER and not a CONTENDER? Luke, I am truly sorry for what I just typed. It was out of line.
Gav keeps chugging along with 30+ points per game from Zion, who by the fucking way, could tone it down a bit with his celebrations. Every goddamn hoop Duke scores is like a game winner for Zion, clapping and yelling and whatnot. Why? Because he's the best player in the tournament and loves to win and is passionate? Lame. Gav is down to one other man, Gonzaga's Norvell Jr, averaging about 20, as the only Zion teammate. Duke and Gonzaga can't both be in the championship. So Gav's max effort would be 30+30+30+20+20=130 added to his current 500 = 630.
With the same four players he still has, Stu went from 380 to 463.5 in one round. PJ Washington actually played for Kentucky! So if he keeps playing on his bad foot and Kentucky and Texas Tech keep winning and meet in the championship, he could get about 80 points per round times 3 rounds and gain about 240 points, totaling about 700 points. Stu could beat Jake or Alison!
Chris has one man left, Goins from MSU.
Dan has 2 UVA players and the Gonzaga PG left. They could meet in the final. If we're looking for a 700 total for a winning owner, I need 270 points from my guys. 270/(6 games from 3 players) = 45. Each of my guys only needs to score 45 points per game on their way to the title matchup. My God, I was the pretender all along. Again, Luke, I am so sorry!
Shawn and James, still bad.
Bob has 4 players left but two are from Virginia and we just saw how my math played out for a guy with two Cavaliers left. Not great, Bob!
Remember that? They were truly Mad Men. I guess. I watched some episodes here and there but couldn't get into it.
Here is the plot of every owned player:
