Soaring Eagles- 88s 113-100
Soaring Eagles managed to save couple of starters for important cup game with Pszczyna Team, and still grab a win against one of two weakest teams in red conference. 88s were leading at half time by 5, and were only down by 1 after third quarter, but they weren't able to keep up with the Eagles in last part of the game.
player of the game: P.Morgan 27 points in just 15 shots, and 22 rebounds. Was game's highest scorer and rebounder, and he gets a nod for the player of the game even despite poor free throw shooting, only 8.5 rating, and not a great defensive display on Daowei.
Scarborough- Keyes 62-84
Was supposed to be a game of the night, but it was over at halftime. Keyes came out of the locker room ready for a tough game, and they looked very surprised after seeing a tactic that opponents used in this game. After couple of minutes in a shock, they came to a conclusion that it would be a sin not to use it, and pulled away. Through 3 quarters of action they built 28 point lead and then just chilled for the rest of a game.
Player of the game: noone. really, noone stood out and the game was never close so there were no crucial plays that could decide man of the match.
The Syndicate- Ottawa Lightning 80-68
After a sale of their leader Stian Alm, Ottawa players wanted to prove that they can still win some games. Turns out they can't. Were they sending a message to a manager that maybe it is time to stop sitting in a bank and swimming in money and spend some on the team? But it looks like Kevi is content with 5th spot that his team is sitting at, and with no real competition behind them (time to wake up 88s, Haylors and We are Legends) they should be able to retain this position without additional spending.
Player of the game: Patient tactic chose Hengli to carry whole team on his back and he decided that the best way to do that is to take 42 shots. And he did. Result: 46 points and MoM award.
Sherbrookers- Haylors 110-96
Extra effort, home court advantage, and still a loss. haylors are one of the candidates for relegation. Meanwhile teams from blue conference show their superiority over read conference (only Keyes, Pszczyna, Soul Crashers did not acknowledge the fact).
Player of the game: Kalcovas.
Double- double with 27 points and 13 rebounds. All around very efficient performance with shots made both from the paint, and three-point range.
Cerebreal- Webfoots 91-72
Despite selling their highest paid player, Cerebreal still put up impressive ratings and were able to grab an away win against webfoots. Is there a team in this league capable of stopping them? They won last 4 with an average difference of 27 points. Webfoots could still have some hope after decent first half and leading just by 6, but terrible performance in third quarter stopped them from getting to a close finish.
Player of the game:
After losing great shooting guard, Barthel decided to do some more scoring and less passing. he got 45 points, 4 assists, 6 rebounds, and only 1 turnover, that he made up by getting 3 steals.
Montreal Visoders- We Are Legends 92-77
Definetelly didnt see that one coming. We are Legends looked like a favourites, but terrible ball movement, and still forcing passes by playing push the ball turned a must win into a blowout loss. Dont be mistaken by the final result. It wasnt even that close. Montreal was good enough to save Legends from furious fans and they let them win 4th quarter by 15 points making boxscore look a bit more respectable.
Player of the game: Naud
He scored 30 points, while still sharing the ball with his teammates. over 50% shooting is rare for a shooting guard that takes that many shots, that's why he deserves MVP award for this one.
