Soon.<\/p>\n

I could never get my head wrapped around any tabletop basketball game, until PLAAY Games came out with Highlight Maker Hoops in 2022.\u00a0 It’s a quick-play basket ball game, akin to their Express series of games, which are scaled down versions of their full-play games.<\/p>\n

From right out of the box I was able to play a couple of games, eventually replaying the Warriors-Celtics 2022 Finals series, where the Warriors won in 6 games, I think.\u00a0 For some reason I don’t think I documented that series on this site.<\/p>\n

Earlier last week I played a game using their fictional basketball league, BLAM (Basketball League of America), which I have renamed the NBL (National Basketball League).\u00a0 The Chicago Express defeated the visiting New York Guard 118-103.<\/p>\n

PLAAY has released a full-play version of Highlight Maker Hoops called Prime Time.\u00a0 It arrived yesterday and I plan to continue the NBL season with the new expansion.<\/p>\n

On tap for tonight: the Cleveland Nets visit the Boston Commons.<\/p>\n

I should do what I’ve seen other tabletop gamers have done, use AI to create logos for my fictional sports teams.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
