Another positive post after an impressive result against Estonia!
I must admit when I first logged in at around 4pm and saw Estonia had crunched, I thought that would be our season over but the lads dug deep and we've managed to maintain our 100% record. Defence key to the win, in particular, the three big men who kept their main focal point of attack relatively quiet. Impressive percentage from the free throw line too, especially at U21 level, shows how important making them FT's really is..
MVP's
3 points: Clint Franks with an excellent performance at both ends of the court. 23 points and 10 rebounds secured him a double-double. He looked after the ball well and was a menace in defence claiming 2 steals and 1 block.
2 points: Ad Cassell defended their monster big man extremely well considering the salary difference. He swatted away four attempts and also picked up 12 points.
1 point: This was between Halley and Ledezma but the latter takes it for his impressive defence against Estonia's top scorer this season. He limited his opponent to 5 points and a 22% FG, intimidating him with three blocks. He also grabbed 9 important rebounds and shot well from the free-throw line.
Israel up next.. don't expect masses, but who knows..
Also, before I finish, congratulations to the senior team and Bergkamp for their excellent win over Argentina! Great result and that means both teams have 100% records heading into Gameweek 4
