The Yay pull off the CHAMPIONSHIP!
2nd Round Playoff and Championship
(1)The Yay (47) v. (7)Cream of the Crop (42)
The second round of the playoffs began with (1) The Yay taking on upset minded (7) Cream of the Crop. The pace of the game favored The Crop, slow and steady. It was an evenly played first half w/ The Yay leading 25-21 at the intermission. Jon Hall did all he could, scoring game highs in points (25) and rebounds (21)! That was not enough as the Crop lacked that second scorer to put them over the top! The Yay on the other hand did have balanced scoring led by D'Angelo's 18p 12r 5s performance. A combination of Isaiah's 13p and Trevor Dunbar's 7 assists were just enough to put The Yay into the championship game with a 47-44 victory!

(3)Balls Out (67) v. (4)Primetime (52)
The second semifinal game pitted #3 seeded Balls Out versus #4 Primetime. Balls Out would be at full strength while Primetime would be missing their leading scorer, Mark McMahon and it showed! Primetime was only able to muster 13pts (5-26 19% from the field) in the entire first half! While Balls Out only shot 40% from the field in the first half it was more than enough to take a commanding 26-13 lead at the break. Balls Out was led by Greg Tang who had a season high 26p (7-12 from long range) and Kris continues his good shooting with 15p (5-9 from the field). Primetime's Joe tried to pick up the slack with a strong second half scoring 25 of his 26pts. Primetime also got contributions from Joachim and Ray who both chipped in with 10pts each to make the final score respectable. The final score was Balls Out 67-52! On to the 'ship!

The finals brought together (1)The Yay versus (3)Balls Out. MVP D'Angelo saved his best for last, almost single-handily dispatching Balls Out! Scoring 33pts and grabbing 12rebs (both game highs)! The Yay shot 53.4% from the field and 7-21 (33% from 3pt range). Balls Out, on the other hand shot a paltry 15-44 (34%) from the field and 14-26 (53.8%) from the free throw line. Kris and Jordan led the way for Balls Out with 10pts each. The day belonged to The Yay! As they cruised to a championship, 66-49! Today was a good YAY!

Week 6 Recaps
Open - 1st Round of Playoffs
(1)The Yay (66) v. (8)Bay Area Kings (52)
The playoffs begin with the #1 seeded The Yay taking on #8 Bay Area Kings. On paper this looks like a total blowout, but you can't measure a teams heart! The Kings came out fierce! Matching The Yay shot for shot in the first half. Only trailing 32-30 at the half behind 21pts from Travis and 11pts from Pellom. This game was won in the third quarter where The Yay went on a 22-6 scoring run! Led throughout the game by D'Angelo (36p 9r 1a 3s), The Yay never looked back after their run and cruised to a 66-52 victory!

(5)Rangers (63) v. (4)Primetime (76)
The 4/5 matchup had two familiar foes going up against one another as (4)Primetime took on (5)Rangers. The Rangers gave it their all as they didn't even know if they would have enough to field a team!? They had 5 players exactly, but would they have enough energy to beat Primetime? The Rangers trailed throughout the game, at halftime the game was still in doubt with Primetime holding a 35-30 advantage. The Rangers were led by Nick, who had 30p 7r 6a, and Doug's 13p 9r 3a 4s. Alas, it wasn't enough to beat Primetime! Mark had 18p 9r and Jokeem chipped in 18p 5r to bring their team a step closer to a championship!

(3)Balls Out (90) v. (6)Don't Call it Frisco (57)
A season high for points is what Balls Out had to serve up to a depleted Don't Call it Frisco squad. Balls Out had everything clicking! A season high in scoring from Kris' 21pts to Jordan's 20p & 6r. The middle quarters is where this game was decided. Balls Out outscored Don't/Frisco 50-19 (16-0 in the second quarter alone) in the second and third quarters respectively. Don't/Frisco knew they had to do something with their depleted squad so they tried to beat them from behind the arc, but it didn't work out like they planned. They were just 12-48 (25%) from long range. Clayton's 22p and Larry's 13p & 12r were not enough as Balls Out were just too dominant! Balls Out hoping that this leads them to another 'ship!

(2)Rock Center (46) v. (7)Cream/Crop (48)
We saved the best game for last! As #2 seeded Rock Center takes on the veteran #7 seed Cream of the Crop. This was a very close contest with both teams having the lead at some point in the second half. This came down to the final seconds! With Rock Center leading by two 46-44, Tye (4p 4r 5a) gets fouled, shooting two with 13.6 seconds left in regulation. He uncharacteristically misses both shots! Rock Center has been on a scoring drought since Vince's bucket with left in the quarter! Cream of the Crop calls timeout. They draw up a play where Arj (4p 3r) drives to the right and gets fouled with 5.8 left. He makes the first and misses the second shot. The rebound gets tipped to Derrick (9pts) who calmly sinks a 3 with seconds left to give Crop a 2pt lead! Instead of going for the tie Rock Center goes for the win and the attempt bounces off the rim to the left! A heartbreaking loss!
