Business in the Front (1st half), Party in the Back(2nd half)!
Canada 96 Jamaica 76 (45467)

Well the title says it all. The first half we owned, the second half we were out to lunch or rather partying it up it seems with the lovely ladies of Brasil. Overall, a nice safe win against another team that felt the need to use more enthusiasm.

A great team effort. Five players in double digit scoring and everybody got on the score sheet except for reserve guard Pavliuk.

Highlights:
-another fantastic game shape week.. we will keep needing them, as we play tough Uruguay(eventhough they used more enth against Chile) and eventually Argentina.

-17 offensive rebounds (7 of them to Stupendous Stephen Hall)

-6-6 foul shots.. although no NT coach should really rejoice at only forcing 7 fouls all game

-9 steals

-34 to 15 opening quarter that had the crowd assuming free pizza for sure.

Low lights:
-17 fouls
-4-16 from three point land

Men of the Match (for us atleast)
1)Stephen Hall - Again in beast mode with 20 pts, 15 rebs and a game high +28. (3 points)

2)Aaron Madiar - Mr. Everything has really stepped up lately, in what may be his 'last hurrah' season on the NT. 16 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, +25. (2 points)

3)Alex Cockayne - 17 points, 6 assists. (1 point)

Big week.. Please watch minutes again, you guys have been amazing to me .. Uruguay is dangerous, can't let our guard down. As they say...."Who's got NEXT?"

Uruguay vs Canada NT ..

As per usual our guys are fighting hard. They used more enthusiasm, guessed a gdp right.. we played it safe.. They were up by about 17 in the first quarter.. we now have finished the 3rd quarter up by 3.. Can we finish it off? Amazing fight either way.. Let's see what we are made of

5 point lead, we fouled out their pf stud caballero.. lets hope that is for the better. their bench guy is good too. come on gentlemen!!

Keep up the fight.. we are f.... g canaucks!!!

Pretty interesting game I must admit :D

No, it won't be easy, but I think, if I remember correctly they were a bit careless with their enthusiasm earlier but I may be mistaken..

WE have great community support(game shape wise), good people to bounce ideas .. and most of all I'd like to give a shout to my most loyal helper and sometimes my BB conscience Coach Manzel . Thanks for all his support. Others have been appreciated at points in this season too.. I hope I haven't forgotten.. Statsman, Hippo Hacker, Fwinns, Lab RAt and others with lesser roles. It's been much appreciated.


Who's got NEXT?

Thank you for the shoutout I love helping out!

Next game vs Mexico :

1) Their bad game shape. This week they have 4 players with respectable game shape and 2 players with average game shape. This gives us an advantage because of the way of our game shape has been.

2) Enthusiasm. They’ve played normal in the past 2 out of 3 games. This is gives us an edge.

I’ll give my input on Friday or Saturday when game shape is updated I will also analyze in depth, Mexico’s previous games!

Congrats on another victory and the qualification to the semis! Next week game will determine if you end up 1st or 2nd, and whether you play the US or Brasil in the semis :)

Thank you very much. Today we won because of our enthusiasm. We've banked a lot of it. Argentina will be very difficult. All hands on deck this week. The next 2-3 games we need our best players and as many players as possible in excellent game shape. Especially our old veterans.. vets are so key and even better on high game shape.

Anyone with ideas, please bb mail them to me, I'd love any feedback. We have been great this year.. let's keep doing this ..

Who's got next?

Great W MC!

You're having a great run, don't stop now :D
