Sign of the Twine: Mid-Week Special, Day 12

B-ballers,


What’s good? The will to win is nothing without the will to prepare. The first place Runnin Rebels (9-2) closed out their regular season with a 59-43 dismantling of fourth placed Sky High (3-8). Team Runnin Rebels won 7 of their first 9 games, and will take a two game winning streak into this year’s postseason. They’ll be chasing the chip as the number one seed.

On this final day of the regular season, several performance stood out: Heart-N-Soul (26 points, 7 rebounds, 5 feeds and 4 thefts), The Phenom (22 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals), Lil’ Bison (17 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists). But it was the postseason form of Bucktown that brought the rec yard to its feet.

Today’s 67-59 Funky Technicians (7-5) victory, over team Regulators (4-8), was a testament to what Bucktown is capable of when he’s not in foul trouble. The Brooklynite has tallied 37 points, 20 rebounds, 2 assists, 4 steals and 4 blocks in the final two games of this regular season, concluding his regular season as the undisputed Player of the Week. That’s what’s up!

As for this upcoming postseason: If you ain’t coming to win, you gets no glory from this pen! Let the playoffs begin!!
