4-April 12, 2008
Game
9- 7th Place Game
Cherry,
Bekaert & Holland 94 – Holiday Inn Portsmouth 80
In the toilet-bowl
game, CB&H were finally able to get into the win column. Being
down by 6, they caught fire in the second half, and cruised to an
easy victory against the winless Holiday Inn Portsmouth team.
Cherry,
Bakaert & Hollan
Charron Fisher
27pts, 7rebs
For the 2nd
game in a row Fisher showed his nice scoring touch, although he
did struggle to shoot the ball from long distance, and did not look
too keen on giving it up to his teammates.
Jajuan
Smith 17pts, 10rebs, 7assists, 3steals
Once again showing
his ability to contribute in all aspects of the game, due to numerous
team injuries he was forced to play almost the whole way, yet he
showed no trouble of doing so.
Derrick
Low 12pts, 6rebs, 5assists
Showed some
glimpses of the game that we have seen from him throughout his career
at Washington St. Unfortunately it may be a case of too little too
late for Low, who has struggled throughout the week, and may find
himself left out of the Orlando Predraft Camp.
Holiday
Inn Portsmouth
Will Thomas
21pts, 5rebs
A nice final
performance to cap of a decent week. Thomas, with his nice length
shows a good ability of finishing around the basket with some decent
moves.
Demetric Bennett
11pts, 9rebs, 3assists
Very steady
player, that rarely goes out of his element to force anything. He
has a very quick 1st step and has shown a nice ability to knock
down shots.
Game
10- 5th Place Game
Sales
System 97 – Norfolk Sports Club 93
A very exciting
game that went back and forth throughout, it was only appropriate
that it ended in overtime. Sales System looked more aggressive in
the extra period, attacking the hoop, and eventually coming out
with a win.
Sales
System
Jiri Hubalek
17pts, 6rebs
Once again showed
his nice touch from the outside, but little of anything else, as
all of his field goals came from beyond the arc. He did have 6 rebounds,
but did not show the activity from the first day where he was a
monster on the offensive glass.
Justin
Hawkins 20pts, 5rebs
A nice combination
of size and skill, he was able to put together a couple nice games
after a very shaky start. Has a decent looking shot, but is much
more comfortable getting his points inside the arc
Ramel
Bradley 14pts, 8rebs, 4assists
Had a bad shooting
day, going 2-12 from the field, but once again showed that he is
very aggressive as he finished 11-12 from the foul line.
Norfolk
Sports Club
Chris
Lofton 25pts, 6rebs
Continued his
hot shooting from the previous day, connecting on a number of highly
contested shots and while shooting of the dribble.
Jonathan
Wallace 7pts, 8assists
Didn’t
really find his groove all week, but finished off with a decent
performance. He is a very unselfish player that shows nice creativity
distributing the ball.
Game
11- 3rd Place Game
K&D
Round’s Landscaping 82 – Norfolk Naval Shipyard 81
Another very
closely contested game that went down the wire, K&D were able
to overcome their terrible shooting night by getting to the line
and shooting a good percentage.
K&D
Round’s Landscaping
Kentrell
Gransberry 13pts, 14rebs, 5stls, 2blocks
Coming on strongly
to finish the week, Gransberry showed that he can do a lot more
than just score, even get into the passing lanes and disrupt the
other teams offense. He showed how tough he can be to match up with
when he makes up his mind by going for an impressive 9 offensive
rebounds.
Mike
Green 16pts, 5rebs
Decent scoring
game for Green, he didn’t shoot the ball particularly well,
but was able to get to the line and finish 6-6 from the stripe.
He only had one assist, which is definitely a concern for a PG that
played 25 minutes.
Folarin
Campbell 13pts, 6rebs, 5assists
Continues to
play well, showing off his smooth jumper and ability to shoot from
long range. He is able to use his strong body and nice leaping ability
to finish well around the hoop.
Norfolk
Naval Shipyard
Deron
Washington 21pts, 5rebs, 2blocks
Showed that
he can play through injury, and ended up putting together a nice
game. He connected on 4-5 from long range, showing that he is able
to do more than just be a one dimensional high flyer on the break.
Gary
Forbes 5pts, 13assists,
Seems like he
took this game as an opportunity to prove everyone wrong about the
selfish label that he has received. Did not look to shoot very much,
and was completely focused on setting teammates up, only downside
is that he finished with five turnovers.
Tidewater
Sealants 103 – Portsmouth Sports Club 80
The Tidewater
Sealants team showed signs of being very good from day one because
of their willingness and ability to share the ball. In this one,
they were simply too much for the Portsmouth Sports Club, putting
the game out of contention very early on.
Tide
Water Sealants
Jamar
Butler 18pts, 5assists
For the 2nd
game in a row, caught fire very quickly, and because of his hot
shooting, his team was able to put the game away very early.
Shaun
Pruitt 18pts, 12rebs
Has been one
of the bigger disappointments this week, but was finally able to
put one game together that was half decent. From day one he showed
that he was out of shape, calling for a sub about 2 minutes into
the first game, which immediately showed that he was not ready to
play.
Josh
Duncan 15pts, 9rebs, 3assists
Exactly what
we came to expect from the steady Duncan. Is it any question that
he was on the championship team?
Portsmouth
Sports Club
Reggie
Williams 22pts, 3assists
Put on another
scoring display, even more impressive was the fact that he did it
in only 21 minutes of play. Going 3-5 from three in this game, and
8-13 for the tournament, he finished the week shooting the highest
percentage in camp from long range.
Kyle
Hines 16pts, 7rebs, 3blocks
The ever active
Hines continued to put up nice numbers across all categories, and
was even more impressive with his shooting efficiency, finishing
8-9 from the field in this game.
