It’s that time again.
June. The NBA playoffs are
reaching a crescendo. Lebron went out of
his mind dropping 45 on the old-heads up in Beantown forcing a game 7 back in
South Beach tomorrow night – with K.D. and the boys layin’ in the cut back in
OKC looking untouchable. It’s hot and
Death Row b-ball is on and poppin.’
Game one saw The Phenom (26 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists
and 3 steals) lead the Runnin’ Rebels past Sky-High 50 – 40. The Rebels opened on a 10 – 0 run triggered
by swarming D by Scoop (8 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist, 5 steals and 1 block)
and the General (9 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 5 steals and 1 block). Sky-High made adjustments but looked out of
sync all game long. Young Frost was ejected after receiving a double-technical
foul at the 5:55 mark of the 1st half, further depleting an already
under-manned squad.
But, Billy-Ho held them down with (17 points, 5 rebounds, 4
assists, 1 steal and 1 block) – Grown Man Ballin.’ SunChild (4 points, 12
rebounds, 1 assist, 6 steals, and 2 blocks) brought the high-level intensity we’ve
come to expect from him. Runny Ray, Ali
and Lil’ Chris combined for (16 points, 19 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 steals and 1
block) in a gritty performance that,
even in the loss, put everyone on notice that if you want the chip, you’ll have
to go through Sky-High and oh, by the way; Breaing News: E-Smoove is back from a temporary
hiatus. Watch out for Sky-High.
Game 2 featured the Regulators and the Funky Technicians. The Technicians got off to an 11-2 run lead
by Heart-N-Soul (13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 5 steals), Bucktown (10
points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 2 blocks); Pitt Bull went hard for
(12 points, 9 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block) and Nasty Nas snatched boards and
took names (6 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 blocks) bringing the fear factor to
the paint.
But, too much Regulators, led by B-dot (22 points, 13
rebounds, 2 assist and 1 steal), a career day from Freezy (18 points, 10
assists, and 3 steals) and a double/double from the Bigg Dogg (10 points, 11
rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block).
A less than stellar showing from Silk Money (8 points, 7 rebounds, 2
assists and 2 steals), not the gaudy numbers we usually get from him – a true
baller; and only a matter of time before he gets untracked. Regulators win 61-53.
Congratulations to the co-players of the week. B-dot’s numbers for the two games this week:
(35 points, 34 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals). And of course, the Phenom: (65 points, 23
rebounds, 4 assists and 5 steals); that’s whoa!
Now that’s bringin the heat. Next
week - 6 games – and I promise your b-game will not get it done; bring it. It’s that time again.
Also, shout out to the new refs: Big Bank, The Diesel and Lil’ Magic. My peers; My family. Let’s demonstrate to the world the
possibilities of Man. Much respect!
Mr. Blue
