5pm Teddy Bears vs Picachoo 6pm Atl Outkasts vs Max-Out 7pm Supreme Court vs Lifetime
Game to watch will be, Atl Outkasts vs Max-Out. With Bo Noung and Tony
Akins going head to head for the first time, we will see if Bo can do his thang against the Atl Outkasts! Last season
these teams were 1-1 against each other, with the Outkasts eliminating Max-Out in the final four. Max-Out has yet to prove
they are an elite team. Can they do this season? We will certainly find out soon!
A sluggish and sloppy game by both teams all game. Both teams seemed like they never played organize
ball before. But the Rat Pack lead by #3 Mani Saddig (20 points) in scoring and #1 Narayana Gowde (10 rebounds), who
dominated in the paint, pulled out an ugly win.
This Hungover team will be the sleeper team to win the championship. With their quick guards and excellent
shooters, this Korean team will go under the radar, but will be a force to deal with.
The
Showstoppers did seem intimidated by Atif Sajid and Tony Akins early in this game, with #23 Dulla scoring at will in the first
10 minutes of the game. But Atl Outkasts regrouped and shut down their offensive attack. The dominated the rest of the game
and looked very good in the second half. It seems the chemistry with Tony Akins was very good also. This teams looks scary
for the rest of the league go up against.

League Championship Game
- The Atl Outkasts advanced to the championship game with a dominating performance over #2 seed Max-Out. The Outkasts were
hitting on all cylinders and were unguardable. Great team passing and inside/outside scoring proved to be too much for Max-out
to handle. While the #1 seed Teddy Bears as expected beat Picachoo to move into the championship game looking for another
trophy this year.
The championship game between the Outkasts and Teddy Bears may have been the best game of entire
season. The Outkasts have been riding momentum for the last two weeks by just exploding on offense especially from the 3-point
line. And that didn't change in the championship game. The Oukast made as a team 17 (3 point) field goals, lead by #1
Mighty Mouse with 8 three's in the game. But the Teddy Bears kept it close all game despite the Outkasts strong offensive
performance. As as champions do, they made clutch baskets down the stretch. The game came down to .26 seconds left and the
Outkasts had possession with two time outs remaining (Outkasts lead 81- 80) and threw pass into traffic that caused a turnover.
The Teddy Bears scored on the next possession and took the lead 82-81. And that was the ball game with the Outkast missing
the last shot. So the Teddy Bears win another championship! Well done guys, we will see you next season. We want to thank
all the teams for a fun league, and hope to improve on next season. So keep practicing, maybe someone will take out the mighty
Teddy Bears!

League MVP
#22 Billy Kim Teddy Bears
Billy has proved that he is now the top player
in Atlanta asian basketball. With his versatile offensive game, excellent rebounder and defender, Billy is well deserving
of this award.
Playoff Week - Atl Outkasts advance to play Max-Out in the leagues Final Four games, by beating Supreme Court 92 -75. The
Outkasts were hitting on all cylinders with their "A" game, especially #12 Atif Sajid, scoring 32 points, 11 rebounds, &
dishing 5 assists. Both teams scored lots of points, but the Atl Outkasts just had too many shooters for Supreme Court to
handle. Max-Out beat the Atl Outkasts by 1 point in an ealier matchup this season in overtime. This should be a good rematch.
Picachoo with the only 1 win managed finally to get a crucial win and also advance by beating J-Crew by 1 in overtime.
Picachoo is usually turnover proned, and almost gave away another game near the end. But Meng Xiong missed free throw gave
Picachoo an opportunity to advance to play the Teddy Bears on Sunday! But Picachoo looks to be a major underdog to the mighty
Teddy Bears. This game shouldn't be close, but we will see if Picachoo can pull an upset to make it to the championship
game. See on Easter Sunday for the championship game!

to 2-2 with a grind out victory over Picachoo who is still looking for their first win. Picachoo lost the last two games by
a combined margin of 6 points. Keep playing hard guys and you will get one soon. The game of the day was Max-Out vs Atl Outkasts.
Max-Out edged Atl Outkast by 2 in overtime. Outkast lead by 11 in the second half, but lead by Sam Chan & Bo Noung, they
overcame the defecit and squeaked out a victory in overtime. Good games this week, see yah next week!
