spladle08 1,098 Report post Posted May 20, 2018 Tony Ramos vs. Daton FixI really like Fix here but it might be the homer in me. I think he learned that Ramos really guns for those "close wins" in the first match, I think he will open it up here and win in 2 Nahshon Garrett vs. Nico MegaludisGive me Nico, I think he is our best option on the world stage here. I won't be surprised if he loses 1 but Garrett just has 0 defense and I think Nico won't get into those 16-15 matches Jaydin Eierman vs. Logan Stieber I have no clue but Steiber has not looked good, he is more than capable of beating Eirman but will he? Give me Logie in 3. Jason Chamberlain vs. Frank MolinaroSolely based on the Frank Molinaro wont go away theory, and Chamberlin has fallen short so often, give me the Tank in 2 Isaiah Martinez vs. Nazar KulchytskyyI think Martinez is just better here, will be surprised if he drops one, but they should be tight matches, IMAR in 2 Alex Dieringer vs. Zahid ValenciaZahid is great but I have to think Ringer is better, he has been my pick to make the team all year, I think he dominates maybe not techs but Ringer in 2 Richard Perry vs. Nick ReenanPerry in 2, he's only losing to DT Hayden Zillmer vs. Deron WinnWhen the odds came out Winn was my big darkhorse, I got him in 2 Austin Schafer vs. Kyven GadsonSchafer had a great open, but i think Gadsen beats him to get a shot at getting teched by Snydman Adam Coon vs. Anthony NelsonCoon in 2. Great couple wins by Nelson, but he relies a lot on being big, and Coon is equal to that, I think its fairly undramatic. 1 de4856 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Housebuye 2,420 Report post Posted May 20, 2018 Fix - wouldn’t bet on it but he looked amazing and I’m tired of Ramos’s style. Also the match babe Gilman would be way more compelling with Fix. Garrett - Nico looked amazing yesterday but Garrett is like 6-0 lifetime against him Eierman - not confident at all here. Stieber when he is on is arguably the best in the world. Evan Henderson pushed him though. I like eierman a lot although a Stieber vs McKenna final x is interesting Molinaro - he has a big lead career wise vs chamberlain. Last time was a fluke. Props to chamberlain but Molinaro takes this one. IMAR - Nazar is very good from the undertook though. Not a good style matchup for IMAR. Zahid because I like him. Betting wise this would never be where I put my money but in picked Zahid in every major math for the last 5 years besides vs Taylor at midlands. I’m almost always right with him. Perry, but damn nc state is doing well in freestyle right now. Pulling for an upset. Neither makes the team anyways. Zillmer - no idea though. Weak class. Neither is making the team. Gadsen - I don’t think it’s close. Props to Schafer for winning the us open but he isn’t our second best guy. Coon - not totally sure on this one. Excited for this matchup. If tony wins, gable gets a true third match with coon, so I’ll be happy with either outcome. Just want them to open up a bit. If someone wins on the shot clock point I’ll be annoyed. Coon has a better shot vs Gwiz I think but still picking Gwiz. Can’t wait. Going through this made me realize that I’m not confident in a single pick. Literally all of my picks could be wrong. Love it. 1 ArianaGrande reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Housebuye 2,420 Report post Posted May 20, 2018 OP I like your picks too. I’m supposed to hang out with my girlfriend’s friend and her boyfriend at brunch today. I may be sneaking off to “crap†for an hour or two. I’m an idiot and scheduled an out of town vacation over this weekend without checking the dates. Haven’t missed anything yet but of course the one thing I can’t get out of is during the finals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBar1977 4,496 Report post Posted May 20, 2018 They didn't want to let Molinaro win on criteria, so they put him on the clock 2x to Chamberlain 1x and basically set Chamberlain up to win. Cool stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool stuff. Molinaro's style always costs him a couple of shot clock points. He's hated by referees around the world-happens almost every time he wrestles.
