I think Singh, Odulio and Gervelis are good enough to play the line 1 spot but maybe that is just my opinion. I think if you are going to stack why not put your best team at line 2. Oberto and Cocoroan are good players but not tough enough to take on the Lakes line 2. I wonder if they had swapped with Odulio/Singh what would have happened, but everything is easy to rethink on Monday, huh?<BR/><BR/>I don't like to stack because it leaves you open to the 2nd guessing by yourself and by all your players, I have definitely done it before and probably will in the future. I think it only makes sense when you are missing players otherwise if you are manufacturing wins each week it will eventually catch up to you at some point when someone has a deep roster.Cary Bazan aka Lucky Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876564249848425083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-87757198663368972372008-04-21T13:33:00.000-05:002008-04-21T13:33:00.000-05:00Cary,Balan and Richardson played line 1 doubles ag...Cary,<BR/>Balan and Richardson played line 1 doubles against Garland and won easily.

No Runda, Tran, Balan or Do and they still won without too much difficulty, they look stronger than I thought at first glance. They are scary deep like Somabut's crew.
