Week 6 Results

Strauss vs Dzwonek
48-36
The early game was exciting for the first half, but as team Strauss started to gain confidence they were able to pull away from team Dzwonek. The two teams were tied at the half and this looked like it could be a close game to the end. Sadly Stevie who's quite a streaky shooter couldn't hit his shots in the 2nd half and Strauss was able to pick up their fourth win in a row. Despite team Dzwonek losing there is certainly hope throughout the league that team Strauss is there for the taking. They didn't look nearly as threatening as they do with Whitby healthy.

Jarboe vs Mcnamara
48-43
Despite only have 6 players for almost all of the game, team Jarboe was able to get their season back on track with a vital win against team Mcnamara. Chandler led the way with 19 points and was able to help team Jarboe keep a 5 to 10 point lead the whole game. Curtis and company started making a run at the end of the game, but it came up short despite Dummont hitting two huge corner threes. Most of Mcnamara's success came from exposing the lack of height on team Jarboe by finding their combination of bigs down low. Make of it what you will but my favorite stat of the season holds true with Mcnamara now being 0-4 without Castro and 2-0 with him. 

teDuits vs Kelly
58-53
The train keeps rolling for team teDuits who are still undefeated improving to 6-0. Team Kelly without Sammy was no match for the stacked team teDuits. Bradley led the way with an impressive 28 point performance, but the news circling after the game was that Colin couldn't get it done without Brad on the floor. We've been aware of the Colin's limited offensive game and it hasn't hurt them too much yet, but it's very possible that it will hurt them when playoffs come around. Despite team teDuits being outstanding so far they are known for being choke artists come playoff time. Team Kelly did well to stay with teDuits and this loss is nothing to be ashamed of. We also heard Josh was causing big issues for team teDuits so maybe that is something they can exploit going forward.

Cianci vs Anzivino
40-38
If you were just watching the start of this game you may think team Cianci would've blown Anzivino out of the water. This however was not the case. Cianci went up 21-8 to start the game, but than failed to score for the rest of the half and let Anzivino back into it. Team Cianci, being quite small couldn't find a way to deal with both Zach and Ivan and with 2 minutes left the Cianci lead was down to 4 points. A big bucket by Ivan brought them within 2 and the ball with only 8 seconds left. After a timeout by Anzivino all eyes went to Will to see what he'd pull out of the bag, but it wasn't Will who got the ball. Ivan took the last shot and it missed by a few inches. Will put up 18 points, but that wasn't enough to beat a surprising team Cianci.

Boanventura vs Donaruma
50-40
Another tight game to start was blown open by the end by the better team. This looked like it could go either way for much of the first half, but the talent of team Bonaventura was too much for Donaruma to handle in the end. Derek once again put up a good display on offense scoring 17 points, but I think more credit should go to the monster himself Ryan Bernard. Coming into the season, I don't think anyone thought Ryan would score even a single bucket, but now he's an important leader for team Bono.
