Game 123 - vs. Sub!
(20-34)
Where has the offense gone? For the second straight game the O offensive juggernaut that started the season has been put to sleep. The game began with a bang with the Os looking like they got their shooting ability back. They jumped out to an early lead and played some solid defense going into halftime with a 15-14 lead.
Then a lid was put on the Os’ basket. The Os struggled through what is quite possibly their longest scoring drought in a game. Still playing decent defense kept the score respectable but not scoring any points drained the energy from the team and the decidedly pro-O crowd.
As the teams of yesteryear always have done the O fought on and played hard through the difficulties. Even taking time to show off some advanced skills with 360 layup attempts and brutal shot blocking. Some strategic timeouts toward the end of the game allowed the Os to (barely) avoid setting a team record for fewest points in a half.
Ophy voting was interesting. Mr. Avocado would have had a good shot for a win, but his campaign was short-circuited by his missing the postgame festivities. With 2 votes, Duggo made a solid showing with his birthday argument and Charmaine did well with the “last game of the year” argument. Even Sasha received a vote (with the goal of making Roster Guard not the only sole back-to-back winner). However, E-Bomb took home the Ophy by "using his head" during the game.
