Note that there is a very quick turnaround for round 2 & 3 games on Feb 11th. I'll have to get creative as how to pick winners for each round. Stay tuned.

That was harder than I thought. I few of those were toss ups

Lou vs Phee in Round 1
Stewie vs Aaliyah Edwards in Round 1

How does Stewie and Phee not get byes like Arike and Loyd and have to play UConn Alums?

I am participating. I don’t know. I think guards can usually beat posts at 1-on-1.

Seems odd to me as well, but maybe it peaks fan interest? I wouldn't mind seeing Lloyd against Maybrey.

Random guess on the bye, but maybe they did this for optics, considering they started the league? No idea regarding the UConn alum match ups.

UConn and the Indiana Fever were the losers as far as the draw is concerned imo. The Fever are staring at 0-3. And we got a couple of UConn versus UConn match ups to guarantee elimination for some huskies.

The league has almost no interest from fans and player or players they are interested in need to play. NC is clearly the best player and one of the most popular in the womens game so she needs to be out there as much as possible. It really is a shame they let the same negative garbage they have in the WNBA filter over to the new league. I was really hoping it would be basketball without the BS.

Sorry, but who is NC? And can you clarify what you mean by negative garbage filtering into Unrivaled? Asking to better understand your perspective here.

Anyone watching?? I love it! All 5 Owls have advanced

Edwards blanked Stewie to move on

 

[GoUconn7961]

Good Lord Aaliyah Edwards!! Wow

The 1 on 1 is a lot of fun, more so than 5 on 5 or even 3 on 3 games!
