I'm still working on my Java Diamond Problem. 

Here is the current state of the diamond

![http://prntscr.com/2i9l9y](https://i.stack.imgur.com/jviIa.png)

I'm thinking the problem is the `for` loop right here,
all I need is for those spaces to be printed and then I'm finished.

Can anyone see any obvious reasons why the `for` loop I labeled with the problem isn't being entered or running?

```
//Bottom half of the diamond

    int middleSpaces = sides + 2;
    int downPreSpaces = 1;
    int dRows = sides + 1;

    for (int x = 1; x <= dRows; x++) {
        if (x >= dRows) {
            for (int z = 1; z <= sides + 1; z++) {
                System.out.print(" ");
            }
            System.out.print("v");
        }

        if (x != dRows) {

            for(int y = 1; y <= x; y++) {
                System.out.print(" ");
            }

            System.out.print("\\");

        //PROBLEM IS HERE

            for (int e = middleSpaces - 2; e <= 0; e += 2) {
                System.out.print(" ");
            }

            System.out.print("/\n");
        }

```
