MVP Votes (Round 2)


Game 1: Vios Violationers v TeamAkuma (55372912)

The classic inside v outside game with the game close, tight until the third. TeamAkuma shutting out the Div II debutants by limiting them to a mere 8 points in the 4th while piling on 23 to win by 20.

3 votes: C. Abimbola (SG) 29 pts (5/9 3FG%), 5 reb, 4 asts 15.0 rating
2 votes: R. Sibley (C) 26 pts, 15 reb 13.0 rating
1 vote: K. Smeltz (C) 12 pts, 20 reb 14.5 rating (got 1 vote despite 5 TOs on account of opponent)


Game 2: Western Titans v Geelong Vipers (55372910)

A tight player-on-player contest which saw both teams struggle to score. In fact, neither team could manufacture a 20 point quarter throughout the game. In the end though, the Titans’ defense tightened up and they earned a 15 point win against the venomous Vipers.

3 votes: U. Samdup (C) 17 pts, 26 reb (6OR) 15.0 rating
2 votes: B. Filho (PF) 19 pts, 8 reb 16.0 rating
1 vote: M. Gaggini (SG) 12 pts, 10 reb 15.0 rating


Game 3: Los Coolfreakz El’ Ninios v Home Axis (55372907)

This game seemed over at 3 quarter time but a woeful 5 point quarter by Home Axis in the final term made the Coolfreakz look good.

3 votes: M. Monroy (PF) 20 pts, 16 reb 11.0 rating
2 votes: F. Medina Esquivel (C) 11 pts, 18 reb 11.5 rating
1 vote: W. Xinxuan (SG) 6 pts, 6 reb, 3 asts, 3 stls 11.5 rating


Game 4: JW City Bulls v Whompas Donkeys (55372911)

A great contest between two strong teams didn’t disappoint. However, the Donkeys went inside with Vino and Santana and Santana met a wall named Dayneko. The $120k PF was the difference as the Bulls won by 14 points.

3 votes: A. Dayneko (PF) 28 pts, 16 reb 16.0 rating
2 votes: F. Vino (C) 18 pts, 14 reb 14.0 rating
1 vote: A. Armstrong (SF) 14 pts, 8 reb (7/10 FG%) 11.5 rating


Game 5: Moorditj Magick v Baxter Bogans (55372908)

Two tankers collided in this one. However, several of the Bogans were still knocking back pints at the Tavern when the team bus left. Despite knocking back a few himself (although he managed to get on the bus in time), Tesone came to play. He and Magick big man, Duvancic, had a fierce battle in the paint. However, while the big men went at it, Magick Captain, Marcello “Hot Rod” Rodriguez took advantage of having no direct opponent, piling on 43 points and hitting 7 from downtown. The Magick with a 47 point win.

3 votes: J. Tesone (PF) 40 pts, 23 reb (9OR) 15.5 rating
2 votes: L. Duvancic (PF) 22 pts, 22 reb 14.5 rating
1 vote: M. Rodriguez (SG) 43 pts, 10 asts, 4 reb 16.0 rating


Game 6: Shepparton shooters v UWA Panthers (55372909)

It could be argues that neither team got their defensive tactics right in this one. As a result it was a tight affair for three quarters before the shooters, 6 points down going into the final quarter, erupted in the final term and outscoring a shocked Panther outfit 33-12 to run out winners by 15 points.

3 votes: S. Tragter (PG) 23 pts (8/23 FG%), 4 reb, 4 asts 11.5 rating
2 votes: N. Ratliff (PG) 26 pts (10/18 FG%), 4 asts 8.5 rating (against much better opponent)
1 vote: L. Jiankai (SG) 28 pts, 5 reb, 5 asts 10.5 rating

technically that round two game had PG guarding C and C guarding PG hadnt changed defence assignments yet so Ratliff played against awful defense

Ok, Brooksy. will have another look when I've got time.

Apart from your response it's clear that the Fishbowl is clearly suffering from a lack of interest at the moment. Shame.

Having said that you did pick up seven balls. That tells you a lot of people are reading and appreciating what you have done even if they aren't posting.

I love it Matty and I will try my best to help out too!! This is what makes the pl worth while for me!!

Cheers, Ezy.

@ Yoda...how do you know 'exactly' that I received 7 balls? Don't the balls in all posts get automatically updated to the present?

MVP Votes (Round 3)


Game 1: Home Axis v Baxter Bogans (55372913)

Well, the Bogans managed to leave the bar and board the bus this week. Despite the slow offense of Home Axis, the Bogans were too hard to stop inside with Tesone and Harrower just too good. Sure, Monroy did admirably against Harrower and Jesic helped out from the point but this game was decided in the paint. The Bogans eeking out an 8 point win.

3 votes: J. Tesone (BAX) (C) 26 pts, 19 rbs in 39 min 15.0 rating
2 votes: S. Harrower (BAX) (PF) 21 pts, 10 rbs, 3asts, 3 blks 13.0 rating
1 vote: I. Jesic (HA) (PG) 23 pts, 8 asts, 6 rbds 12.5 rating

Special mention to Monroy who had 20 pts, 15 rbs (8OR) in 48 mins. Only 5 Tos cost him the vote.



Game 2: Los Coolfreakz El’ Ninios v shepparton shooters (55372914)

While the Coolfreakz have an evenly balanced team they were no match for the shooters who won every quarter and keeping the Coolfreakz to single digit scores in two of the four quarters. The two big men, V-thrush and X-Factor were once again unstoppable combining for 51 of the 84 points scored by the shooters. A comfortable 37 point win for Ezy’s lot.

3 votes: X. Weipeng (SHE) (C) 25 pts, 19 rbs 14.5 rating
2 votes: J. Viojan (SHE) (PF) 26 pts, 19 rbs (8OR) 15.0 rating (but 6 TOs!)
1 vote: A. Dougan (LOS) (SF) 15 pts, 4 rbs 9.0 rating



Game 3: Vios Violationers v Geelong Vipers (55372917)

The Vipers with another sound win, this time over the Violationers. The Vipers won every quarter to cruise to a 29 point win. Should be a great contest between the Vipers and the Donkeys next Friday.

3 votes: H. Bertens (GEE) (PG) 29 pts, 8 asts 16.5 rating
2 votes: R. Sibley (VIO) (C) 18 pts (7/14 FG%), 10 rbs 14.0 rating
1 vote: J. Norman (GEE) (SG) 18 pts 14.0 rating (had a weaker opponent so only gets the 1)

Special mention: there were a few contributors who could have picked up votes. S. Brkljac and Fernandez combined to stop the Vios’s big man, Sibley; and the Vipers’s SF, Diez de Escoron was perfect from the field and had a solid 10 pts and 10 rbs for 29 minutes)



Game 4: Whompas Donkeys v TeamAkuma (55372918)

Game of the round this encounter. Both teams went inside and despite another great game from the legend that is Smeltz, the Donkeys, through Vino and Santana held firm winning by 12 points.

3 votes: K. Smeltz (TA) (C) 30 pts (13/21 FG%), 11 rbs 16.0 rating
2 votes: F. Vino (WHO) (C) 19 pts (8/17 FG%), 13 rbs (4OR) 13.5 rating
1 vote: C. Abimbola (TA) (SG) 21 pts (10/23FG%) 16.5 rating



Game 5: Moorditj Magick v Western Titans (55372915)

Well, the Titan juggernaut rolled on and remains undefeated after sweeping aside the Magick. The scoreline (97-82) flattered the Magick who only managed to regain some credibility in the final quarter. The 15 point win means the Titans remain undefeated in the East.

3 votes: R. B. Filho (WES) (PF) 23 pts, 17 rbs (5OR) and 5 asts 17.0 rating
2 votes: U. Samdup (WES) (C) 21 pts (10/16FG%), 8 rbs 15.0 rating
1 vote: J. Dogan (MGK) (SG) 34 pts, 7 rbs, 4 asts 15.0 rating



Game 6: JW City Bulls v UWA Panthers (55372916)

A painful encounter that saw the Bulls repeatedly drive their horns into a very un-sexy Panther outfit. Outgunned in all positions, this turned ugly quick as the Bulls remained atop of the ladder in the East with a 64 point win.

3 votes: J. Vulcan (JW) (PG) 30 pts (12/18 FG% and 2/3 3FG%) and 5 steals 16.0 rating
2 votes: A. Dayneko (JW) (PF) 19 pts, 16 rbs (7OR) in 27 mins 18.5 rating (inferior opponent)
1 vote: A. Pogliaghi (JW) (C) 11 pts, 12 rbs in 28 mins 16.0 rating

Round 4 results coming soon...

MVP Votes (Round4)



PART A


Game 1: Home Axis v Shepparton shooters (55372919)

Home Axis tried hard to stop the shooter juggernaut, particularly Viojan and Weipeng who have done so much damage this season. It didn’t happen. A 30 point second quarter broke the Axis’ back and despite winning the fourth, the shooters were too strong winning by 18 points.

3 votes: J. Viojan (SHE) 26 pts, 16 rb, 5 asts, 3 blks 14.5 rating
2 votes: X. Weipeng (SHE) 18 pts, 23 rb (8OR) 13.0 rating
1 vote: F. Medina Esquivel (HAX) 16 pts, 15 rb 15.0 rating


Game 2: Los Coolfreakz El’ Ninios v JW City Bulls (55372921)

Well, Mr Alvarez tried to slow the unbeatable Bulls down with a Patient offense but failed badly. Nothing was going to stop the Bulls claiming their fourth straight win to remain atop of the ladder in the East. An ugly game that saw the Coolfreakz held to single digit scores in three of the four quarters as they were hammered by 57 points.

3 votes: A. Dayneko (JW) 20 pts, 12 reb in 23 minutes! 19.0 rating
2 votes: A. Pogliaghi (JW) 14 pts, 12 rb (6OR) 17.0 rating
1 vote: J. Corica (JW) 14 pts, 3 rb, 3 asts 16.5 rating

NOTE: I know 23 minutes isn’t probably long enough on court to warrant getting votes but that performance was too good not to.


Game 3: Geelong Vipers v Whompas Donkeys (55372924)

The Vipers went to sleep in the third and lost the game there and then as the Donkeys outscored them 32-14. The Donkeys went inside and Vino, once again, didn’t disappoint. Despite Bertens shooting well for the Vipers, the Donkeys were too strong winning by 18 (the difference in the third).

3 votes: F. Vino (WHO) 27 pts, 12 rbs, 4 asts 15.0 rating
2 votes: H. Bertens (GEE) 36 pts, 4 rb 16.0 rating
1 vote: I. Santana (WHO) 10 pts, 13 rbs, 5 asts 14.0 rating (only just gets the 1 vote over Norman)
