It's the best part of the season. PO and RL games are underway.
Crowd at Stationary Village were nerveous when Tachenko lead 44-42 on the halftime, 3rd quarter was nothing but great defensive intensity for Booshers, 91-71. A. Sigorraga who was 2 asts away from completing a triple double was asking "who's next" right after the game.
Well, Hawks are next. They beat talented guys from Cleveland and managed to make their way to conferance finals for 2 consecutive seasons, 114-102. German's 36 pts wasn't enough for Cleveland.
Steppers @ Gavno was another game decided on 3rd quarter. Mina finished the season with 34 pts, but Mays' injury at the very beginning of the game spoiled their plans, 99-79.
Unlike other homecourt teams Illuison didn't TIE (PO Normal) the game. Dominant performance throughout the game except 4th quarter means a ticket for the conferance finals for them, 94-73.
Home teams made a good start to RL games. Magic leads the series 1-0 after an easy 111-85 win over Knicks. Ketikidis didn't start for Magic but Luna again did a tremendous job on the offensive end.
Bangers was another winner of the night. Beavers and company executed coach's game plan very well and they beat Rip City although they TIE'd. TIE'ing at a RL game looked risky at first but it turned out to be a smart move for the Bangers.
Player of the day was T. Paakkolanvaara of the Knicks. (I know I know they have lost) 48 pts (6/11 behind 3 pt line), 6 rbds and 5 asts.
