Asian League Playoffs!

Eagles DC (100) v. Jackson Arms (66)
In this first round meeting, Eagles DC were to meet an up and coming Jackson Arms squad, only if they were there!? Jackson Arms were missing firepower, John showed up but he could only do so much. He scored 30p and pulled down 10rebs, and although his running mate Kevin, showed up late, scored 18pts & 5rebs. Eagles DC jumped on the Jackson team early, with a man advantage the first half of the first quarter, the moved ahead 29-17! With Drew reigning 3's (9 3pters) and Quez's double-double (23p 13r), the EDC won every qtr to go on to a 100-66 victory! On to the next round...

They held a small lead over the Knights before pulling away with the game in the fourth qtr! Ty, of the Knights, did all that he could by scoring 23pts and grabbing 7rebs! Aside from Ty's strong game, there wasn't much else the Knights could muster. Ray added 6pts and 7rebs.

PayProTec (72) v. Eagles DC (47)
The Eagles DC squad was in for a fight versus PayProTec. EDC played a competitive game for one half and just ran out of gas in the second. Rob led the way with 17pts and 8rebs and Arj had 10pts but not much else. PayProTec broke the game open with a 27-12 3rd quarter on their way to a very dominant 72-47 victory!

Jumpmen (79) v. Rangers (62)
In this second round battle, the Rangers came in versus Jumpmen who were still on a high from their first round battle...and it showed! They jumped out to a 35-24 halftime lead. A lead they would not relinquish. Dwight lead the way with 27p 5r 5a and James had a big 15pt/15reb game. The Rangers had Tay (23p - 5 3pters) and Nick (16pts) and not much else. The lack of rebounding lead to a number of put backs by the Jumpmen ultimately leading to the demise of the Rangers.

The Fam (60) v. Beast (45)
Beast came into the game as the #1 overall seed in D2, but The Fam played like they were! The Fam jumped out to a 23-8 1st qtr lead on their way to a 60-45 dominant victory over the top seeded Beast! James Soy lead the way for The Fam with 24pts on on 7-18 shooting from beyond the 3pt line. Jason Tejano came through with 14pts to bring The Fam to the championship game versus the winner of our next game. A rough shooting night from Jason and London didn't help (2-8 fgs each). Nick lead the way with 13pts. Thank you to the Beast for playing this season!

Putties (54) v. Strokers (55) OT

Clif showed up at the end of the second qtr but still ended up being the second high scorer with 10pts in the second half. As their shooting went cold, the Strokers got hot! They outscored the Putties 37-24 in the second half and OT!  Led by Lloyd's 14pts & 9rebs and Ronnie's 11pt second half the Strokers narrowly defeated the Putties.

Open 6'3 - Week 2 - recaps

The Yay (84) v. Balls Out (55)
Wanting to return to the championship game, Balls Out has to go through teams like The Yay, and that's not that easy! The Yay came out strong! They the lead and never let it go. They won every quarter, the final score was 84-55! DeAngelo scored 29p and grabbed 5rebs, while Isaiah had 27. Balls Out had a rough shooting game. Greg Tang was one of the bright spots, scoring 16p and 5rebs. Brent chipped in 11p (before cutting out early).

Primetime (68) v. Rock Center (63)
Captain Corey Carlson promised that his team would be formidable, maybe this was the team he was talking about! Joe Scott led the team with 17pts, while Tyrone Dickerson 16p and 9rebs. The team had balanced scoring throughout. If they continue this they could be in for a great season! Rock Center trailed by a single point going into the final quarter. The scoring of Kevin (21p) and Ant H. (20p) kept them in the game. Maybe the lack of a bench lead to their demise...

Cream of the Crop (37) v. Bay Area Kings (33)
This was an ugly, defensive game but Cream of the Crop came out on top! Captain of the Crop, Milo Ohta hit 8 of 11 (73%) of his free throws to give his team the victory! Arj Santos came through with 12pts and 5rebs. Bay Area Kings had a rough day shooting the ball! Turner (6p 6r) and Buckner (5p 6r) were the only highlights for the Bay Area Kings on this day. Hopefully they can turn it around or else this will be a long season...

5 Star Ballers (68) v. Don't Call it Frisco (69)
The defending champs took the guys from Don't Call It Frisco a little too easy and it bit them in the butt! 5 Star Ballers were leading throughout the entire contest but Frisco never gave up hope. In this one mans humble opinion...thinks 5 Star kind of took their foot off the gas pedal and Frisco took advantage! Malik was on! His 21pts and 7rebs paced his team and Zo added 16pts. Frisco was lead by Jalson's 13pts and 8rebs, and Kai was big posting 14pts and 9rebs! This game was too close for comfort!

May 3rd - ASIAN CHAMPIONSHIP and Week 3 for some Open teams

OPEN 6'3 and under - Week 1

Open 6'3
Week One

The Yay (62) v. Primetime (47)
The Yay started off this season on a mission! They broke open an 11-10 first quarter lead with a 24pt 2nd quarter then cruised all the way to the end beating Primetime by 15pts! The Yay was lead in scoring by Deandre with 23p 9r and by Jacob's floor game (4p 6r 9a). Primetime countered with Joe's 15p 6r and Tyrone's 11p 7r. They're, shorthanded, efforts were not enough to overcome that 2nd quarter! Next week, team captain promised that he'll have a full squad next week! Let's hope so...because the competition is for real!'

FULL GAME FOOTAGE: The Yay looking like they looking focused on the prize!

.
Cream of the Crop (52) v. Rangers (54)
This season brings the Rangers to the Open 6'3 division! The former champions of the Asian 6'3 division didn't have everyone in the fold this week. They were missing their starting backcourt so they needed some contributions from unlikely sources like Jay Hicks (16p 6r) and Clif (11p 5a). Their contributions were just enough to hold off a late surge from Cream of the Crop, 54-52! John's 13pt and Arj's 10pt 2nd half were just short of the victory! If Cream of the Crop can get to the games on time, they will be a force!

FULL GAME FOOTAGE: Rangers fitting right looking good in the OPEN!

.
5 Star Ballers (70) v. Bay Area Kings (45)
The Bay Area Kings wanted to know the level of competition in this league so who better to face than the champions from last season...5 Star Ballers! They were in for a rude awakening! 5 Star Ballers came out strong and built a 20pt lead after the first quarter which allowed them to cruise to a 70-45 victory! Zo lead the way for 5 Star with  15p 5r 7a 3s 2b and Duney 13p 8r. The Bay Area Kings didn't know what hit them! They were down at the half 43-19! They made a little bit of a run in the 3rd period to cut the lead to 15pts but that was as close as they'd get! Williams led the team with 12p and Buckner had 11p. In the end, the saying goes like this...
"Be careful what you ask for...you might just get it!"

FULL GAME FOOTAGE: 5 Star Ballers showing why they're the defending CHAMPS!

.
Don't Call It Frisco (62) v. Balls Out (67)
Balls Out returns for another season after coming oh so close to a championship in the previous. Big Brent led the way for BO with 21&5 and the speedy Jordan tossed in 15pts! It was a close game throughout, but Balls Out never lost the lead. Don't Call it Frisco did make it close. Cutting the lead to 3 with 3:00 to play. Sharpshooters, Cole (18pts) and Drew (16p 10r) did all that they could to keep the game tight! But their lack of a bench was their downfall! If they could get their players to the game and get the constant scoring from their shooters...Don't Call it Frisco will be a team to be reckoned with.

FULL GAME FOOTAGE: Balls Out finish the game the way they know how!

D2 - Round ONE!

Playoff - First Round
.
The Fam (60) v. Dubs (50)
The first round of the playoffs begins with The Fam versus the Dubs in this 4-5 matchup! Late season pickup of James Soy has brought huge dividends to The Fam squad. His 32p and a solid 10p & 10r effort by Jason Tejano has The Fam looking forward to next week as the face Beast! The Dubs have had an up and down season. A double-double from Jayson Dizon wasn't enough to bring the Dubs a victory! His running mate Yves had 13p as they fall in defeat to The Fam by 10! Looking for the Dubs to make some noise next season!

FULL GAME FOOTAGE: The Fam coming together just in time!
.
Strokers (61) v. Team Royalty (49)
After a strong start, the depleted Strokers team cruised along to a 61-49 victory over Team Royalty. The Strokers had only five players (because of Coachella) but they were enough. Good shooting and timely passing were two of the reasons they'll move on to the next round to face the Putties! Team Royalty put up a good fight with Ian's strong game (20p 10r) and Wayne contributing 11p 5r. Team Royalty needs to put forth that same effort next season! Thanks fellas!

FULL GAME FOOTAGE: Coachella couldn't even stop the Strokers!
