Recap
I heard this game went into double OT and was a Grinder”s classic……not because of the execution, but in true Grinders fashion, no one tried to actually win the game. Hi-Liter was missing their captain and boy it showed. No organization whatsoever. Stye-Eye was missing Toddy “F”n” Nixon who, if there, would have won the game on a jumper at the buzzer at least 3 times (all in Gersitz”s face).
Pauly J. tried to lose the game in regulation, turning it over when he didn”t even need to pass it. The turnover led to a breakout and a “First Ballot Hall of Famer” Eric Boerdner bank shot to tie it at the buzzer (Nixon would have hit the 3 to win, just sayin”). The game went into overtime where I heard, again, no one wanted to win. Each team exchanged bricks and turnovers (Nixon would”ve dropped 12 in the extra frame, just sayin”). Onto double overtime! A classic game like this could only be ended in classic fashion…..one basket……total. My god! Gersitz hit a “J” with a minute left and that was it. Hi-Liter didn”t get Pink Eyed by the Stye-Eyes.
