Playoff Prediction 2 (Harrison Southwick)

Round 1

6 Hastings vs. 11 Sellers
52-31

This one is extremely obvious, Sellers is statistically the worst team in the league. Although Hastings has simmered down from their supernova start to the year, they are still luke-warm and should easily defeat the silent assassin, Alex Sellers.

10 Willson vs. 7 KK
43-39

Listen to me, both these teams are pretty rotten. HOWEVER, Team Willson has an X-factor, The Waffle House (Matt Lagar Jafar). The Waffle House is going to be open all day Friday and expect a huge game from him. One other thing that leads me to believe that KK will lose is that this teams best player will be canceled out by the worst player to touch the rec court, Alex Castrollano. Good lord this guy is terrible at basketball. Like so bad.

8 McNamara vs. 9 Booth
52-46

All year McNamara has hovered between the 6-8 seedings, this is hugely due to the fact that no one on this team ever shows up. Borsque & Co is often without the Borsque and left with the Co. When Borsque shows up to the game on Friday it will be a Bo on Borsque duel. The denser of the two is bound to prevail.

Elite 8

4 Townsend vs. 5 Manzi
55-44

After watching these two teams face off in the last game of the season the crowd was left begging for more. Thanks to Townsend, Team Manzi dropped from the 3 to 5 seed and was forced to play Townsend again in their first playoff game. Oh, the drama. Kyle Plausse has proved that he can wolly-wop anyone he so chooses, he promised me he would hit Team Manzi with the works and he did just that in the last regular season game. One would assume that this game would be much closer but it has come to our attention that Samuel Boudreau will be missing this game to travel to the magical land of Delaware, for shame Samuel, for shame.

3 Southwick vs. 6 Hastings
72-58

If this game is anything like the first time these two teams faced off then Southwick will be tasting the sweet sweet nectars of a rump whooping. It is clear that Team Southwick is so good at basketball it's crazy. As long as Jack Barry plays like he normally does and Sammy "Lovecraft" Eggiman maintains his triple double stats, then Southwick will have zero problems.

2 Jarboe vs. 10 Willson
51-38

After the Waffle House being open for a consecutive 48 hours, its employees will be all tuckered out and ready to quit. Meanwhile, the most hated player in the league, Mr. Chandler, will be all revved up and ready to rumble after his short meerkat hibernation. Expect this game to be a blowout, after all, it is a 2 seed versus 10 matchup. Chatters around the league predict that if Chandler equips his going out Topper before the big game then he could, in fact, break the 43 point league history high.

1 Strauss vs. 8 McNamara
45-38

Although Borsque is the Earth's mightiest hero, I don't believe he has the power to single-handedly take down the most annoying team to play in the league. Strauss for some reason is good and it really angers everyone. Strauss may not have the most star power in the league but they get it done.

Final Four

3 Southwick vs. 2 Jarboe
45-42

I envision this game being as close as it was the first time. I personally have never been more angry as I was when that snarky little meerkat hit a game winning three against my fantastic team. I can assure you that will never happen again. Simon Chandler is the complete opposite of a threat, its laughable. While Jarboe has been solid all year and is arguably the best defensive team in the league, they will without a doubt fall short to the sweet delicious power of Team Southwick.

4 Townsend vs. 1 Strauss
52-47

I have two words for you, Kyle and Plausse. The real deal is going to have to pick up a massive workload with the league's best/worst player, Hankus the Tankus being gone. Hank is going to North Carolina to check out the Duke basketball team. They have been blowing up his phone, knocking at his door, and delivering sweet baskets of edible arrangements in hopes of signing the young superstar. Ha, kidding. Seriously though Strauss is going down. They are overrated.

Championship

3 Southwick vs. 4 Townsend
66-64 OT

This will be the best game of the year. There is no question about it. After trash talking each other's teams all season, Southwick and Townsend will duel it out one more time for all the marbles. History will repeat itself. Southwick will win. Expect me to go down with some sort of outlandish injury as well. Jack Barry will cancel out with Kyle Plausse, Zach Millet will cancel out with Nate Townsend. That leaves us with two players, Lovecraft and the Hank. Fire versus Ice. Good versus evil. Light versus dark. Most importantly, talent over garbage. Pack the stadium for this Sunday night duel in two weeks. After you watch Southwick win you can watch team leader, me, recover from my injury and run up a check in the All-Star Game.
