Is the Gap Closing?

By |June 6, 2014|Default|0 Comments

Back in my college days before I tore my knee ligaments, I played pick-up basketball at the UCLA gym, which had 3 open courts. Within these 3 courts came unspoken rules. The best players would play on the first court. When I say best, I mean that they were legitimately solid. These weren’t your typical scrubs that would play once in a while. These players were all above 6’5″ with some of them being good enough to walk on as a bench-dweller on the actual college team. The 2nd court featured players that were decent, but not good enough to play on the first court. The third court featured everyone else that didn’t have freakishly athletic bodies or a Larry Bird-esque shot. Yet even though the talent wasn’t particularly great, we all had our fun, competing against each other in a relatively even playing field. One particular day, the first two courts were backlogged with players, causing a trickling down of players into the third court.

Remember how confusing the MLG bracket explanation was?
Remember the really confusing double championship bracket I talked about on MIOM? We’re reverting back to a normal double elim bracket.
