Match of the Round

Bainsynators plebs vs. Eggplantpopolopolous 104 - 98

With the 8-2 Eggplant’s going in favourite it looks to be a very hard night for the Plebs which may see them drop to 9th with a heavy loss. The Plebs stunned the Eggplants early jumping to a quick 8-0 lead in the opening minutes. The Plebs continued to rampage to a 25-10 over the highly fancied Eggplant’s although it has been said that the Eggplants had some poor minute management recently. Gniewosz ‘Snotman’ Sznajder led the game with 13 points. Despite the best efforts of Eggplant manager ChuckyFE to spur his team on to rape the Plebs in the second, the Plebs seemed to be in good form tieing the quarter 22-22, and taking a 47 - 32 lead into the second half. 'Snotman' continued to dial in from all over the court leading all-comers with 19. No other players were close to equalling that effort in the first half.

Eggplant's again in the 3rd were unable to make any headway into the Plebs lead. The Plebs managed to take the 3rd quarter aswell in a tight 28-26 scoreline. Leaving the Plebs with what appeared a game winning 17 point lead to take into the last. Snotman drained another 6 to take his tally to 25 points for the night. Igotz Arranz arrived in the game in the third, leading his side with 16 points from a handy 8-13 shooting. However in the 4th as time wore on the lead began to tumble. In the first six minutes the Eggplants cut the lead to an achievable 11 points, thanks to more beautiful play from Arranz, who at that point accumulated 26 points. The injury to Plebs center Xavier Suelves began to look as if the Eggplant's would roll through their weaker opponents in the last. But showing great resilience the Plebs held on for a narrow 6 point win. The win gained the Plebs 2 positions on the ladder, but also may have cost the sharks #1 draft pick.

3 votes - Bainsynators Plebs - Gniewosz Sznajder - 29 points 5 rebounds 7 assists 3 steals 2 blocks

A bit of everything for 'Snotman' in this game, but mostly scoring. He dropped 13 in the first quarter which really seperated the two teams for the good part of 3 quarters. Shooting just over 50% for his points he held down the Pleb fort till his teammates reinforced him in the last couple of quarters. Sznajder was also pivotal in shutting down the Eggplant barometer 'Pissonyou' for only 4-14 shooting.

2 votes - Eggplantpopolopolous - Igotz Arranz - 33 points 17 rebounds

An impressive 2 quarter performance by Igotz really brought his side within striking distance late in the last. He scored 20 more points that the second highest scorer on his team which just shows how valuable he was for the Eggplant's. He wasn't missing much from the floor with 15-22 shooting.

1 vote - Bainsynators Plebs - Igor Zakharov - 15 points 9 assists 3 steals

Igor was the one giving Sznajder all his good looks in the first half and can be credited with another 18 of his teams points from his 9 assists. Add 3 steals and you have a good night for the Russian

Mangoloids vs. amos rogues 118 - 16

No real point to report on this game as once again the Guppy leader was AWOL. 102 point loss is what they deserved and gave the Mangoloids 5th on the ladder and a successful season.

Fair enough

Home Axis vs. Whompas Donkeys 91 – 75

This was a big game for Homw Axis as it could see them if they won big enough to take the minor championship. Similarly for the Donkeys who could steal 5th with a win. Home Axis started strong winning the first quarter 27 - 20. Paco Garrido again led the Axis as he has so many times this season with 10 points off 5-6 shooting in the first quarter. Dewey Bowers was of course leading the Donkeys scoring with 11. The second quarter was a much closer affair with Home Axis extending their lead by only 2, leading 48 - 39 at the half. Melchor Manzanera took control of the Axis charge in the second with 15 points and 13 rebounds for the half. Dewey continued to score with 20 points for the Donkeys.

Another solid quarter for Home Axis saw them carry a 14 point lead into the last. Manzanera continued to work hard with 21 points and 16 rebounds with a quarter to go. While Bowers continued to drop points with 27 although he was quite inefficient with 12-35 shooting. Home Axis closed out the game for the 16 point win, with Manzanera scoring 33 points and grabbing 19 rebounds, while Bowers had a game high 39 points.

3 votes – Home Axis - Melchor Manzanera – 33 points 19 rebounds

Melchor is a new face on the block and makes an instant impact with an outstanding 15-21 for his 33 points and with the double double he was clearly the best Axis player on the night.

2 votes – Whompas Donkeys – Dewey Bowers – 39 points 4 assists

Dewey did as he always does, scoring massive points with 39, which is more than half his teams points. Although he was inefficient with 17-45, when you score over half your teams points your pretty valuable.

1 vote – Home Axis - Philipp Gartmayer – 18 points 24 rebounds

Gartmayer was handy with a double double 18 points 24 rebounds which is close to worthy of 3 votes in any game but not this one.
