(1) SPAGHETTI RAMEN vs (5) NYC GRITTY COMMITTEE
D3 WN Playoffs (Semifinals) – Tuesday, June 13, 7pm at Fashion HS
| Team Notes | Team | Score | Team | Team Notes |
| Last season was the first in 4 seasons that SPAGHETTI RAMEN was not in the title game. This bona fide dynasty is looking to fix that blemish with a return trip this season. (G) Leuis Ng with yet another MVP-caliber season leads the way with (F) Matt Auerbach sitting shotgun. Ramen is very much the team to beat. |  SPR 6-1 |
58-52 |
 NGC 4-4 |
NYC GRITTY COMMITTEE has one strength that may give them the advantage over SPR, and that’s (C) Victor Chia’s size. SPR has no real match-up but they do a good job of making opponents play their tempo. Gritty won’t thrive in an uptempo game, they need to slow down and let (G) James Choi orchestrate, but will SPR let them? |
| Key Player: Leuis Ng
When it’s all said and done, Ng may finish as TDL’s most decorated all-time player. Not only as he picked up numerous MVPs, he’s become one of the most clutch players in the league, across all divisions. This makes SPR very tough to beat. |
 Pos: G19.3 ppg 6.6 rpg 5.3 apg |
 Pos: G 14.2 ppg 4 apg 2.8 spg |
Key Player: Teddy Oh
If Gritty can get the same kind of output from Oh as they got in Game 1 (18 pts, 6 ast), then they may have a chance. Oh has been one D3’s most exciting rookies, so another break out game here, and we might have found a new NGC star. |
(2) TEAM BINY vs (3) NY DYNASTY
D3 WN Playoffs (Semifinals) – Tuesday, June 13, 8:15pm at Fashion HS
| Team Notes | Team | Score | Team | Team Notes |
| TEAM BINY has tons of veteran talent, and they’ve all been here before. Their only goal is to win a championship. Rookie (G) Will Zhou has been a great spark plug off the bench, and his ability to attack the basket along with their established vets, could give DYN fits on the defensive end. |  BIN 5-2 |
58-55 |
DYN 6-2 |
Defending champs NY DYNASTY squeaked by a tough SNB, which exposed possible weaknesses in their offense. But with (G) Caleb Lui and (C) Dan Tak on D, this is one of the toughest teams to score on. This should be another ugly one, but both semifinal games are looking to be great match-ups. |
| Key Player: Eden Chuang
After playing mostly a defensive role as 6th man in last seasons’s DYN championship team, Chuang has returned to BIN with vintage play. He’s been one of the best players off the dribble this season and he’ll give DYN’s Lui all he can handle. |
Pos: G 13.8 ppg 5 rpg 2.8 spg |
 Pos: G 22.3 ppg 5.9 rpg 2.9 apg |
Key Player: David Chu
The veteran scorer’s 22.3 ppg was second in D3 this season. His ability to shoot the three and make FTs make him an efficient scorer, but even tougher is how relentlessly his team will try to get him the ball. The shots never stop coming. |
(1) DON’T EVER PLAY YOURSELF vs (5) SKILLSHARE
D2 WN Playoffs (Semifinals) – Tuesday, June 13, 9:30pm at Fashion HS
| Team Notes | Team | Score | Team | Team Notes |
| DON’T EVER PLAY YOURSELF has come a long way, from last to first in just 4 seasons. Rookie (G) Emery Clark has given them the guard depth they needed to pair with (G) Kali Pearson. DPY always had plenty of forwards and size in the paint. Now they just have to keep the momentum going for a title run. |  DPY 6-1 |
52-48 |
 SKL 5-3 |
SKILLSHARE should have been a contender all season, but absences from key players hurt in crucial games. Still, as they proved in their 1st rd win over HAR, they are tough to beat with a full roster. And that’s the catch here, SKL is expecting a number of missing players in this one. But they will no doubt bring everything they have for it. |
| Key Player: Tyler McFarlane
The versatile McFarlane has had a consistent season with solid #s. He is adept at getting in for offensive rebounds and getting out on the break. That’s where he can hurt you most, is finishing in the paint, and drawing fouls in the process. |
Pos: F 12.4 ppg 6.6 apg 1.6 spg |
 Pos: F 18 ppg 6.6 rpg 2.8 apg |
Key Player: Scott Sullivan
Sullivan came through with a big game (2o pts, 9 reb) just as expected in Rd I. And he’s gonna need to play even bigger against DPY’s massive front line. If SKL is going to be short handed, Sullivan will be carrying a very heavy load. |
