TDL Spring 2016 Week 3 Results

NYK Spartans (0-3) 47
NY Dynasty (1-1) 74
Wed (4/27) 6:45pm at MLK HS Boxscore
Player of the Game: G. James (DYN) 22 pts, 2 reb

RECAP: The Spartans came in short-handed and never seemed to get on track despite keeping it close at halftime. Dynasty caught fire, however, in the 3rd quarter, scoring 29 points, their most in a period so far this season. And it was pretty much downhill from there. (F) Jin Hong paced the Spartans with 14 pts, 12 reb.

Guard Me Maybe (2-1) 46
That 70s Team (0-3) 51
Wed (4/27) 7:45pm at MLK HS Boxscore
Player of the Game: M. Petrovic (70S) 12 pts, 5 reb

RECAP: What was expected to be a shootout, turned into a defensive battle of speed vs brawn. And brawn just edged out speed as this game neared playoff intensity. Neither team shot well in what was an ugly game for both, but (F) Matija Petrovic made the big shots down the stretch to help his team eke out this win. 

Boomtown (1-1) 52
Free Agents (2-1) 61
Wed (4/27) 8:45pm at MLK HS Boxscore
Player of the Game: A. Aiyar (FAS) 18 pts, 3 ast

RECAP: The Agents got off to a fast start as new adds (G) Alok Aiyar and (F) Tyson Harnett seemed to fit in seamlessly with their style of play. But, as to be expected, Boomtown fought back into it in the middle quarters led by some nice finishes by (G) Keith Markovich, and (F) Nate Jones’ typical effort. It just wouldn’t be enough as Aiyar led his team with 18 pts to hold off BOO.

Sal Team 6 (2-1) 52
Tim Nubina (1-3) 44
Wed (4/27) 9:45pm at MLK HS Boxscore
Player of the Game: P. McClelland (SAL) 14 pts, 4 reb

RECAP: After a strong showing in their Week 1 win over MWW, Tim Nubina has now dropped two straight. This one to perennial contender Sal Team 6, which used their typical balanced scoring and tough defense to turn TIM’s reliance on the 3-pt shot into a weakness. TIM shot just 7-34 from behind the arc, a season-low. (F) Perun Kovacevic paced Nubina with 14 pts, 12 reb.
