Fishbowl East Season Five Round Ten MVPs Part Two
Northcote Slammers vs. Chumunga 104 - 89
CUM has spent $4,000,000 recently on new players so they would dominate right? Wrong, they are still planning for the future and while these MVPs will be dominators one day, for now they are just good. Northcotes late season purchases are much more modest but a $70,000 PG is probably more useful than trainees. It was really cool to see CUM throw the FCP but I bet they wish the Slammers didn't have their new PG.
3 Pier Giorgio Masetti Northcote Slammers 18 PTS 11 REB. He shot well (7/10) and also added a deuce of each of assists, steals and blocks while often facing CUM's best player Sultan.
2 Selçuk Sultan Chumunga. His team lost. His opponent was MVP. He shot 4/13. Total 9 points. "C-Cat, Yoda has lost his mind." So how does he get 2 MVP points? Well he was the game high rebounder. He also had 8 steals as a PF! Serious, nearly a triple double with steals as the third. Impresses me!
1 Narcís Guraya Northcote Slammers. I love guys that can make an all around contribution. While Doherty scored more and wanted the last point, NG had 13 PTS 8 REB 9 AST was +2.5 in ratings and had the best +/- in the match.
Billy Hoyles Boys vs. Slam ! 104 - 83
ABBL vs maybe relegator, a slaughter right? Wrong! BHB are still wracked by injuries and Slam ! are preparing to try and avoid relegation in division II so it wasn't a 50 point blowout. However BHB did take control early, shot the ball well and had a classic game from their star Mikey Bergman .
3 Mikey Bergman Billy Hoyles Boys 36 PTS 18.0 rating. Everyone in the league except abigfishy considers him the best SG in the league and this is the sort of performance that shows why. Unstoppable.
2 Alejandro Ascariz Slam ! 30 PTS 17 REB. Slam ! usually likes big men with wages of $350,000 or $180,000 so the must be pleased that such a "cheap" player can perform so well.
1 Mai Chongzheng Billy Hoyles Boys 14 PTS 7 AST 7 REB 4 STE. Outstanding all around contribution from the classy SF.
JW City Bulls vs. Chelsea Seagulls 99 - 90
Chelsea knew this would be difficult. The game was very close throughout with Chelsea having small leads for most of the game up until 6 minutes to go when they had a 5 point lead. With 1:39 to go Chelsea were still up 1 and what followed was the most pathetic and disgusting display of incompetence that the coach wanted to sack all of them. All the Seagulls did for the last minute was foul JW and miss shot after shot. JW well deserved the win, his players are not gutless chokers.
3 Liang Wai Yuen JW City Bulls 25 PTS 21 REB. But that wasn't the main thing, he took former NT player and division II MVP candidate Sherwin, pulled his pants down and spanked him. 1/7 for 3 points in 44 minutes. Sherwin was very close to being listed for $1 after this.
2 Joel Vulcan JW City Bulls 16 PTS 7 AST 7 REB. Long time team hero Vulcan came up big under pressure in the closing minutes of the game when things were down to the wire making free throws and guarding all three missed 3 pointers in the last half a minute.
1 Rober Forbes Chelsea Seagulls 26 PTS. High scored for the game but totally vanished at crunch time like the rest of his spineless team.
