Proboscis Monkeys

They though they would wun, but.. they were wrong.

First cuarter, Pedjan and Valex2 crushed Hot Sauce and Steve Nash, scoring 25 for 16 points, leading by 9 points in 12 minutes. Our blockers made a great job in the zone, 12 blocks for only 2 monky's blocks.

Second cuarter, we couldn't stop theirs friends.., the refs, 14 free throws for Monkis, meanwhile we only did 0, people started to get angry with them. Pedja's 12 weren't enough to win the cuarter, because  Steve Nash did 21, ending the parcial 34-30 for Monkis.

Third cuarter. we started it 5's up, but that was going to be our best cuarter, 19-32.  24 points between valex2 and pejda, plus 8 lebron's, for less than 10 between hot sauce and steve nash, and only 3 free throws difference between us. But ous team work worked, 14 assists, the double.

Fourth cuarter, we almost had the match in our hands, but they didn't want to give away a easy loss, so they fighted until the end.but we deserved that win, Trabuco added to Pedja an valex2 in the last cuarter, and we scored 23 points, for 28's monkie. So we got the win! we have wun a top team

Remarkable performances:

Lykan Valex2 38 points

Toni Kung Fu Panda 12 blocks, 9 rebounds.

First Win

Agains a old friend in Iberic 2, Deportivo Palofumeke (paxi,& luismi murcia). At first it seemed a close match with two similar teams. But we was still without TRabuco, we was going to suffer to score points.

1ºQ, Just with Valex2 we managed to be on the match with his 10 points, 17-14, but we had talked about Palofumeke short roster, so we were waiting for a great improvement in our performance.

2ºQ It confirmed our thinking, 30-12, 16's valex2 lead us this cuarter, allowing palofuke to score just 12 points. His men were staring to fell tired, and we would take advantage the second half, to make a big gap.

3ºQ and 4ºQ, very seemed cuarters, Palofume only managed to score between two 3 points, so the match was a piece of cake, and we could watch a gorgeous performance by valex2 with 22 points in the third cuarter, and  30 in the fourth. It was a good matc for Monkey and Salgado as well, cos the finished the match close to do a double figures, in steals and assists.

Valex2 endind the match with 78 points in 32mins, for only 14's Pedja and 11's Lebron, this season the t-shirt most sold is going to be Valex2's one. Now he is on seven position at top league scorers


Magic 119 - Palofumeke 29

As we had thought before we should take advantadge his short roster, but now it was time to prepare the next match agains Oxford.

First Lion's Match

After a new face for a new age in basketmaniacs we are playing at Lion's Conference, too many good teams so it won't be easy win matches frecuently.

Our first match was against latest IBeric 1 champions, so we could say, it was suach a Champion's Match, latest iberic 1 vs latest iberic 2,( by the way i play in both teams).

First Q started with an awful scorer for us.. 9-35, so it seemed a bad night, Pedja and Valex2 our best offensive men, didn't have theirs day, so Lebron did a great performance in that first cuarter, meanwhile Chiba and Navarro... seemed to be played agains childs..

Second one, we scored more points but unfortunatly the did so as wel.. another bad day at the office for our scorers, we trusted Lebron.. the only solution. plus Carroll added himself to the party with chiba and navarro.. 43 points for Arzobspado. No fair...

Third cuarter... Pedja onle 3 points... he was rusty... a lot of time thinking in other team and now he had his head in other place, cos we haven't say that he was supposed to leave the team this year, but finaly he didn't.

Fourt and last one, thank god, the match was ending, our fist match a big loose... it seemed to be a hard season for us. but we had a breath of hope, we saw the light when valex2 scored 9 points, almost 10, so we thought that with the new algos this season valex2 should be our main scorer., in addition we called an old familiar face for ours supporters, Lykan Trabuco, he was on the way.

Magic 60 - 161 Arzobispado

Losing head

After our first lost two days ago, we played again cobra's at home, another toug match. <in the first cuarter it seemed a usual match finishing 10-13 for them, but in the second cuarter al defense was awfull... receivng 32 points! and scoring only 15 so, the match was like a big up hill for us, Planet and Red scored in that cuartet as they wanted, 16 and 14 points each one.

In the half we tried to correct some mistaks whichk we had made, but people started to think in another lost, we had lost our "invictus" feeling, and now we feel vulnerable, like never before we had felt this season.

The third cuarter was the confirmation, finishing 14-23, another lost was on the way,giving 13 free points the same that we had managed to scored, it got back impossible.

People started to leave the stadium even before the last cuarter started, which finished 23-32, nothing to do against Cobra's, that lost relegate us to the second position on the table, and it will forced us to play in play offs against Cobra's we are looking forward for that match,cos it was a shameful lost, that we will never forget.

Fnal result: 62-101

First Lost

We knew it.... later o sooner it would arrive.. so here it is our first lost. In fact we lost against the current leader of the league and only for 3 points.

We dind't start so bad.. 19-13 for us in the first quarter, our steals were worthy for that gap, but in the second cuarter, it was more equality.. 16-22 for them, despite the great quarter that pedja did, but, we did a lot of fauls which allow deportivo scored 14 points from free throw. Anyway at the half the match was tied and with chances for any team.

Third cuarter, another one for us, 21-15, awesome pedja with 17 points 5 over 9 in three point shoots, just 6 fouls, our biggest problem this season, we do too much fouls.It seemed a day like the other day but, in the last cuarter DEportivo  played a fantastic basketbal, finishing 24-33 so they have wun the mantch, it is not easy to score 33 points to the best defensive player in the league, actualy we didt too many fouls again 13 points from free throws, further more derek socred 15 points. We didn't soo many steals like before cuarters, and they took a ot rebounds as well, so the match finished 80-83. We were still the leaders! so no worries so far...

League First Round

Well last friday finished the fist round of the league, our balance is very good: 15 matches played, 15 wins- 1678 points scored - 716 points received. In conclusion we are the best defense of the league in this first round, and the fourth attack in the league (by the way.. just wait for TRM)

We have seven players in the tops, ValeX2 589 points, Pedja 548 poinds, third and fourth in scored points
, Kunf Fu Panda 145 rebounds seventh position, Salgado Alatar 106 assists, 10th position, Salgado Alatar and Master Tigress 90 and 95 steals 8th and 9th, and Sagitario 48 blocks 5th.

The playr with more minutes is Pedja with 21 per matcha, in the other hand we have Satan with 13 minutes like the player with less minutes, we are a team with a lot of rotations, because we played with a high defense intensity,so we need that all our players fresh.. Now is time to rest for the away round, but we hope keep working hard to manage finish the league with a big 0 on our loses square.

Last first round match: Savoy Five 60 - 123 Gijón Magic

Other win in World BM league, we keep fighting for the first position agains grold quo, but the final fight will be next thursday, at Gold Quo vs. Gijon Magin do not miss it! Coming back to the match, we played a good scorer match, althoug we neglect the defend in the last two cuarters... the scored more than 10 points, but we scored more than 35 points each cuarter.
Even it was another match whre TRM could score more than 10 points, he is growing up altought he hadn't a good porcentages.. . But the key was in Valex2 (87%) and Pedja (62%), eachone with 52 points, they do not never want to score less than the other. The steals were very important as well, becouse we did 29, which gave us more chances to shoot. Monkey and Tigress our two perimeter aralgora's, played a very good game too, between they two they did 13 steals - 20 assists - 15 rebounds, diggity! Definetly we keep being the best defefense in World BM League, and the second Attack.
