Fishbowl East Season Four MVPs Week 10 Part Two
Rampaging Marmots vs. JW City Bulls 95 - 109
This probably should have been mentioned as one of the games of the round. This overtime thriller had everything, lead changes, dramatic plays, huge comebacks and a blowout finish. Early the Marmots dominated taking a comfortable 50-38 halftime lead, but when they relaxed the Bulls came out strong in the second half. Kent and Vulcan were men possessed and while everthing they tried didn't work they had a hand in almost every play down the strech. 1 minute to go JW is up. Clune hits a 3 for a 1 point lead. Yuen of JW scores again JW by 1 31 seconds to go. Rice misses then fouls. Vulcan goes to the free throw line with the pressure on and misses one. Timeout Marmots. They draw the perfect play, 19, 18, 17, 16...3, 2, 1, Clune Shoots...siren, Clune Scores, a buzzerbeater to tie it up. Sadly there was little excitement in the OT as JW totally dominated.
3 Liang Wai Yuen JW City Bulls 27 PTS 13 REB and one really huge basket to get the Bulls to the OT.
2 Dan Gardner Rampaging Marmots 20 PTs 23 REB 10 AST. A triple double and a double double double he did everything he could but the lack of a bench left him exhausted in the overtime.
1 Joel Vulcan JW City Bulls 24 PTS 7 AST. Great game but must watch the turnovers,in this game every possession was gold.
Chelsea Seagulls vs. SASTROOPERS 45 - 81
This was supposed to be the match of the round but instead it was total embarassment for the Seagulls. Two starters out injured and one in poor game shape was always going to be an issue. But excuses are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink. The fact is the Seagulls simply were beaten in every position and had the worst shooting night that can ever remember as the SAS outside defence left the Seagull starting PG, SG and SF a combined 1/34 for the match! Wow!
3 Ky Smeltz SASTROOPERS 13 PTS 25 REB 14.0 rating. Ky had an off night and was probably line ball with Alfas Konfeldas for the 3 points but the massive rebounds were essential as the Seagulls actually controlled the boards and Bustos had a stinker.
2 Alfas Konfeldas SASTROOPERS 17 PTS 7 AST 7 REB. Not often Ky finds decent guards on his team but this season's group has people in Smeltzland talking championship.
1 Róbert Kožlej SASTROOPERS Forget the stats, kept Ðuričko and his wondrous JS to 0/17 for the match. Incredible!
Slam ! vs. Da Fat Boy Slim 64 - 119
Da Fat Boy Slim have actually been in semi-tank mode this season so this shows how important a dominant big man is in this league. They threw the ball inside to Duffill and he scored at will. I want to give him all 6 MVP points.
3 Kye Duffill Da Fat Boy Slim 46 PTS 30 REB 20/29 FGS 17.0 rating. Probably the best single performance from anyone including Smeltz this season.
2 Ralph Rendon Da Fat Boy Slim 26 PTS 7 REB 6 AST. Someone had to throw Duff Duff the ball.
1 Hunter Hawthorn Da Fat Boy Slim. Grabbed the rebound Duff Duff missed. Still sounds like he should be in a cheap vampire movie or gay porn to me.
