WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I'm sorry, I'll compose myself.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Ok I'm good. Here's the box score:
(12679)Holy crap. I did not expect that AT ALL. Our eternal starting guard Panjaitan went down after 13 minutes. We even TIE'd! We were down 10-2 only 2 minutes into the game, so it looked like it was going to go as I expected. They were up 41-32 early in the 2nd when we went on a 14-0 run to take a 5 point lead. And somehow the lead was 8 at the half! We maintained the lead, still up 10 after 3 quarters.
We were still up 96-81 with 5:27 to play, and that's when our boys started to choke it away. In less than 3 minutes it was down to 102-100. An Austrian jumpshot with 13 seconds to go gave the Austrians their first lead in forever, 107-106. But with 1 second left, Ulf Hauer and his awesome passing skills (I'm thrilled that I started him) found Bedenham on the baseline for the jumper and the win!
MVP's were SG Len Stevens for coming off the bench after Panjaitan went down to lead the team with 23 points, and our big men Val Montana (22 pts, 14 rebs) and Jonathan Bedenham (20 pts, 22 rebs) after being matched up against Austrian Centers with 100-200k salaries.
Good win everyone, keep up the good work!
