Team Standings
[table id=24 /]
Game1 – Black at Green (“Father and Son Edition”)
Takeaways:
-
Not often do you see a father and son competing against each other. Soundbites from Rio before his game with Macky, “No Mercy!” He wasn’t lying because Team Black finally gets their first win of the season! On the expense of a Pat injury though 🙁 Get well with that ankle sprain Pat!
-
I think Richard, Rick and Mike were the difference makers with Ian breaking out with 18 points. Good team effort on this night so it paid off.

Game2 – Carolina at Purple (“Old Bloodz vs Young Bloodz Edition”)
Takeaways:
- Another OT thriller for the Purple squad but this time losing out on the veteran Carolina team. A little biased you may say but this was an up and down game with multiple lead changes. The Kevin and Dee show kept Carolina close and ultimately winning in OT. Chris A hit a big left corner three to hush the naysayers and Dee had the block of the year! He must have had R. Kelly’s “I believe I can fly” track on heavy rotation. Charlie pulled out a flu game performance with his 11 pts. Carolina was huffin and puffin without Allan and Alejandro for sure.
- Team Purple was happy to get Richard back and he was gang-busters all night dropping shots from midrange to 3 pointers to drives to the hoop. Complete game but just fell short. The bucket exchange leading up to overtime was bananas.
- Santi attacked the paint with his 12. Jose continues to hit big late game shots and also put the lock down on Charles on the last play forcing overtime.

Game3 – Red at Gold (“Chef Afan with the shot boi!”)
Takeaways:
-
Highest score in a game, in the history of the league was posted on this night! Give it up for Afan for dropping 48 on the Gold squad that I thought had a chance to finally give this team their first lost
-
Ervin was dropping cross overs left and right, while the Murphy-Joel connection converted on multiple 3pointers
-
Red team continues to set the shooting bar high, you must pick them up at half court because you never know they might pull up on you at half.
-
Myro was cold for the night but that didn’t matter because someone needed to hose down the office of Saleem-Saddique because it was on fire! Afan hit 10 3s while Hamza finished with 5.
-
Kanav’s best game so far with high efficiency of going 6 for 9
- Don’t be shocked, but the game is evolving …. Team Red went 16 for 57 3 pointers. Yes that’s 57 attempted 3 pointers, 3ball is the new dunk!
This is what it feels like when you’re playing this Red team
