Week 1 Day 2
Team Simms vs “STB” Nuff Said
In a testy game that featured two techs and a flagrant, Nuff Said walked away with
the win 79-66. The game was very competitive through most of the first half, but the
momentum shifted when Dee Harrison picked up a tech near the end of the half reacting to
a questionable charge call. Even with all the hubbub, the biggest stat of the night had to be
Nuff Said (1-1) spending eight minutes without House or Grismore on the floor in the first
half, but the team only losing those minutes by one point. That rest may have been the
difference, as over the next eighteen minutes, Nuff Said brought around a twelve-point
swing to give them a ten-point lead at the end of the third.
Danuel House dominated today’s game, putting up 26 points and six rebounds while
also playing some of the best defense on the floor. Arab Ace added another 14 points to the
mix, while D’Mond Grismore helped out with eight and seven, including some huge dunks
late in the fourth quarter to put away the game. After losing in a sloppy game against
Competitive Choice on Sunday, Coach Ryno got his team in line and ready to face another
very talented opponent. Their next game will come with a tough matchup against ISS JUS
USS (0-1) on Sunday at 3:50.
Team Simms (1-1) was the Simmons show tonight, as Jonathan put up 31 points and
eight rebounds to keep his team in the game. Dee Harrison had 16 with three assists and
four steals, but his quick trigger on the three took away too many opportunities for his
team throughout the game. They held the lead through most of the first half due to their
dominant rebounding against a larger Nuff Said squad, but as the lead mounted against
them, their effort on the glass waned. Team Simms will need more help from their
peripheral players in their next game, The Organization (1-0) on Sunday at 5:00.
