Gilmores First Half Shooting Wins the Game
Bone Thugs-N-Duron Harmony 66 Happie Gilmores 82
Often when a game gets chippy, the intensity of a close contest is a contributing factor. Tonight, something else spurred 7 first half fouls between two players, including a technical.
However, the game play was a little different. Happie Gilmores had their game rolling early and often, thanks to spectacular shooting from Schuyler DePauw, partnered with strong interior post play. Schuyler finished with 34 points and 13 rebounds, with much of his damage coming in the first half. With only four players, the whole team made major contributions, with Kurker spaceing the floor, Trant recording five steals and eight assists, and Bloom doing a bit of everything, with 17 points, 10 rebounds, and a couple of assists to go with the games only recorded block.
Bone Thugs didn't have it tonight. They struggled to get much rolling in the first half, with star player Davin Rozowski citing having not played in three weeks. However, the team played much better in the second half, with Nick Dion finally starting to hit some shots after a 1-11 showing from 3-point range in the first half. Dion finished 5/19 from distance in the game, to go with 6 rebounds. Tyler Hess played a solid game, with 15 points, 6 rebounds, and four assists. Kevin Rodis provided a lot of early offense, hitting his first few jumpers to get the ball rolling, and also contributed 7 rebounds. Jamie Druker attacked the basket throughout the game, resulting in 8 free throw attempts, but also a hard fall and collision with the wall in the second half.
All in all, both teams played hard. Gilmores put the ball in its Happie place, and BTNDH were mostly bone dry from deep, and that made the difference in the game.
Shout outs to David Bloom from HG - filling out the roster for me, and also hitting big and contested buckets after tough shots (ya had some airballs, David) -
and also shout out to Nick Dion. Tonight it wasn't rolling in the first half. But you kept shooting until you found your ryhthm in half two. And that, might just be a category of the Kobe System?
