Spring 2009: A1 League Champs: Write It Off
Write It Off Claims the BRICK with an undefated 13-0 Season
Write It Off 81 Air Jortan 70
It's PStone's world, and here at C.A.C., we're all just living in it. Finally, after two whole seasons toiling away, without an MVP award to show for it, he made a statement in this playoff run to lead Write It Off to the A1 crown. In this post-season, Chris Brown wishes he could be PStone, as the MAN averaged 29+ ppg, 20+ rpg and nearly 7 assists. That's just, that's just absurd ladies and gentleman, the man earned this MVP award fair and square, there can be no arguements!!
Undefeated, 13-0, think about that! An absurd feat that obviously took a special team to do it. The Finals MVP wasn't on his own out there. Mytro, a steal in the third round, will surely go in the top 11 next season. Good thing Macho was able to get it done with this squad while he could, no way, unless another Mytro shows up, that this could happen again. The Bouncer is just unstopable when he puts his mind to it and had another great outing in the finals. I'm excited to see how he handles the pressure of being a first round pick next season and not being able to rely on a guy like PStone to have his back every week.
And then there is T'N'Tosti. The man who has led the A1 in 3 point % since we started tracking it online had his lowest output, in terms of points per game, what he does best, since the Fall of 2006. Didn't matter, as he willingly took a backseat to Mytro and PStone, and it resulted in his fifth A1 championship. Any team he plays on just has a great chance to win, and this is his second in a row.
The Macho Man just puts together winners. He got a great season out of himself and Covert, doing all the little things that turn into wins, 13 of them in a row. I mean Macho's last two teams are a combined 25-1. No way he can stop now, he's GOT to come back next season and captain!!
Oh right, there was actually a game played last night, now that I'm done slobbering all over the greatness that was Write It Off. They played it out in typical fashion, let Air Jortan hang around in the first half before placing their foot on the throat. It just took a 15-4 run to start the second half to expand the lead and all of a sudden, 2 minutes later, they were up 20 and never looking back. Timely 3s (10-28) and a renewed energy on defense really put Air Jortan in a hole they could never climb out of. The shots that were falling in the first half for Super Mario and Kaif betrayed them in the second frame and the sputtering offense was never able to keep up. And don't be fooled by the modest statline I dropped in, it was way worse than that considering 5 of my points came in the last minute of the game. Another disappointing playoff finals loss (1-6!!) and it hurts most because no one wants to let O'Cal down. He IS C.A.C. basketball, and the Summer season is when HE wins the Brick damn it all!!
Congrats to the 13-0 undefeated A1 Champs - Write It Off!
