Game Summary
Green Dot was still fuming over their loss from last week when they tipped off vs Self Check. After a good start to the game at 8-5, the Ballers ran off a 17-0 run over the next seven minutes with a barrage of three pointers, defense and rebounding. They cruised into halftime with a 15 point lead and never let Self Check get it back under 10 the rest of the way. A dominating defensive performance in a 51-40 victory.
Headlines
TCOB - Taking care of business - that was more like it! Not only did the defense suffocate the Self Check squad into personal squabbles, walk offs and other sorts of frustration, but the Ballers also hit their free throws tonight! 4-4 from the line is low volume but high percentage! Just a strong wire to wire performance for the win.
Balanced attack leads the way (again) - Seven out of nine Ballers registered 5 or more points, with Cam Wade leading the way at 11. The Green Dot crew continues to receive contributions up and down the roster, with all players being a threat.
Deleted scenes - "He called it!" - An unfortunate technical malfunction prevented the first five minutes of the second half from being caught on tape, but during that time, Baller PG Chris Larson featured in a humorous play. He attempted three pointer from the wing that missed, but bounced right back to him, so he decided to adjust his shot and try again....only this time he overcompensated with the power, but ended up banking in the three point try. Upon launch and realizing the mis-alignment, he called "GLASS" and when the shot went in - he received acknowledgement from all parties that he did indeed call the bank shot. hahaha
MVP
Cam Wade - Leading scorer, but also turned in a great shooting performance, a week after struggling from the field. Also had the final two baskets to put the game away at the end.
