It's astonishing how you guys simply doubt that you can play people from other seeds... It happens, and it happens often. Maybe for you it might not be noticeable or it might not even happen too often because you're in a lower seed. You're probably used to shooting and hitting 15/25 3's every game and having the same done to you.
However when you're in the 2nd, and 1st seed, hell even the 3rd seed, you get matched up vs people who shoot the lights out on contested shots, and outrebound your bigs even though like there is no tomorrow. Ofcourse if you take the same shots, you get negative results because you aren't playing on easy mode and they are.
I've had my mic on multiple times and people have complained about playing me because I was a much higher seed.
Of course there will be the occasional troll on here that says "ohh well maybe you just suck." The fact that I, and the other players on here that are in the top seeds, beat the kids who zig zag and abuse mechanics all while on baby mode shows we don't. If anyone tried the bs they do in the 5th seed while actually being in the 2nd or 1st seed, they would get blown out like there is no tomorrow. Especially considering most of them do get blown out regardless of what seed they are in.
