Commish's Playoff mini-recaps up for 2/25 & 3/4

2/25 @ Potrero Hill (SF)
(rest of 2/25 recaps here)


#14 Lions 64, #6 Ole Dirty Bastards 28 (boxscore)
  • No Kelvin Yip, Jimmy Chen, and Ryan Dang for ODB, no chance.
  • 12-2 first quarter lead which stretched to 22-5 by the Lions and it was over. Jon McClain had 10 of his 23 in the first, including 3 rebounds and 3 assists. He finished 9-for-11 from the field and sat out the 4th quarter.
My notes: As we joked, this was probably the first time the entire team showed up - not that surprising based on everyone's schedules and whatnot...a bit of an off game for Eric as he shot 36% (4-11)...with his jumper not falling, Simon contributed in other ways with his game-high 5 dimes and 9 boards and adding 2 steals to boot...Rob put up an all-around line w/ 9 points on 100% FG (4-4), 5 reb., 3 dimes, 3 stl and 3 blocks...Lic also had a solid game (as usual) w/ 12 pts (63% FG, 6-8), 4 boards and 2 assists.

3/4 @ Ira Jinkins (OAK)

#14 Lions 82, #10 Big Gamerz 74 (boxscore)
  • 24-9 1st quarter by Lions, thanks to Jon McClain's 12 points.
  • The Lions led 45-23 at halftime as Eric Fernandez and Derrick Camerino joined the Lions' bucketfest. Fernandez had his best career game.
  • Kelii Woosley led a Big Gamerz comeback with 13 points in the 4th. The Lions gave up 15 points in the onslaught, but held on with decent shooting in the 4th.
  • McClain ended with 35 points. He was a force throughout.
My notes: Lic and Jason racked up a "DNP" for this game...Derrick brought his trademark "instant O" w/ 15 pts. on a blistering 70% FG (7-10), while also chipping in 3 boards, 2 assists, 2 steals and a block...the story here was Eric and Jon's lights-out performances. Eric went 5-9 (56%) from 3-pt. land en route to 21 points, 8 boards and 2 dimes. Jon went BANANAS- going 14-21 overall and 4-6 from 3 (an identical 67% for both). He also added 8 reb., 2 assists and 3 steals for good measure.
