Game Thoughts: TBT Thoughts, guest contributor.
1. Best Game of the Day:
WoCo Showtime vs Best Virginia. Despite being down 14 points with 5 minutes left in the 4th, WoCo Showtime amazingly cut down the lead to 1 point. There was a lot of buzz around WoCo Showtime and Fletcher Magee, pre-TBT 2021, regarding a potential upset and they were incredibly close to pulling it off.
2. Biggest Surprise of the Day:
Ending of D2 v Bleed Virginia game. Based on the chemistry and talent on both of these rosters, I expected this to be a neck and neck game until the elam ending shot (which it was for most of the game) but D2 pulled away in the last 5 minutes of the game.
3. Moment Worth Remembering:
Team 23’s resurgence. One of TBT’s OGs, Team 23, is back to being one of the top teams in TBT, which shows that with a talented roster, GM Mike Illiano will always deliver.
4. What player earned his trip to the E&J Brandy Lounge?:
Shaun Willet. Gave an amazing performance from both sides of the floor.
5. One big thing looking ahead?:
Team 23 v Herd That matchup. Herd That GM, Ot Elmore, did a solid job of bringing back Jacorey and adding overseas studs in Derek Cooke and James Kelly but Team 23 also has plenty of G League/Overseas talent, roster depth, and a GM with over 6 years of TBT experience.
