Team Nook extended their league winning streak to 25 wins with a comfortable 110-87 victory in game 1 of the finals. England NT duo Georgas (37) and Kanjilal (29) combined for 66 points on 63% shooting which Arsenal 98 were unable to cope with. Colla led the way for Bergkamp’s men with 22 points on 10-15 shooting from the PG spot while Vanderstam contributed a solid 16 points, 9 rebounds in 22mins off the bench.
While game 1 was dominated by Nook, game 2 shapes up to be more exciting with Arsenal 98 heading back home, with a bigger enthusiasm advantage and Henningsen likely in better game shape as he recovers from his injury.
2 injuries for CWA Fury in game 2 proved costly as they lost a decisive game 3 98-90 against Bournemouth Drunkers. Quigley had 35 points for CWA, but it wasn’t enough for the short handed team. CWA Fury have been relegated.
