WESTMINSTER, CO: Week 9 Preview | Last Week of the Regular Season

We take a look at each match-up in the final week of the regular season.

The Gladiators vs. The Great Unknown

We start off the last week of regular season games with a good matchup in the Gladiators vs. The Great Unknown. The Gladiators head into this game with a 6-3 record while the Great Unknown linger at 4-5. This is a must win game for both teams, with crucial playoff positioning on the line. The Gladiators are a very streaky team and a lot of their success depends on how well they shoot on that given night. The Great Unknown either plays like one of the best teams in the league or one of the worst. You never know which team shows up. This game should be a close and exciting one to watch.

The Bad Boys vs. Impact Basketball

The Bad Boys were unable to get the win they were looking for last week against The Gladiators. They will look to pull the upset against one of the leagues best teams in Impact Basketball. Impact Basketball will go into this game much like they do every week… as favorites. They’re a star-studded team that will look to put this game away early. If The Bad Boys want to have any chance, it will be on the defensive end where they make their move. With a win, The Bad Boys could turn their whole season around in this single game. But that’s certainly a task that’s much easier said than done against a team like Impact Basketball.

Ignite Athletics vs. Hard Work

Hard Work looks to put the finishing touches on an undefeated regular season as they face a struggling team in Ignite Athletics. Ignite Athletics started the season off strong but have lost some player throughout the way and have recently hit a speed bump. Hard Work’s 3-point shooting has been a game changer for them and if they are hitting, the game could get ugly quick. Ignite Athletics is a gritty team though, and a lot of their scoring stems from the defensive end. Hard Work will be favorites in this matchup, but Ignite Athletics certainly has the talent to make a game of this.

We Goin Sizzler vs. Man Bear Pig

This matchup could easily be the game of the night. Two very evenly matched teams headline this game, which is sure to be a good one. We Goin Sizzler has been nothing but impressive all season and are showing no signs of letting up. Man Bear Pig struggled early in the year but seems to have found their groove. Both teams have similar play styles and can beat you in a variety of ways. Expect this game to be a close one, possibly coming down to who has the ball last.

Slam Drunk vs. Hoopsters

Coming off a last second win, Slam Drunk looks to gain momentum heading into the playoffs. In their way, is a talented, yet, unproven Hoopsters team. The Hoopsters have shown glimpses of greatness, but have yet to put together a whole game where they played their best basketball. Slam Drunk is a veteran team and will be favorites in this game but Hoopsters have a great chance to make a name for themselves this season. Expect this game to be filled with 3 pointers and to be high scoring. It certainly should be an exciting game to watch.

Get Buckets vs. We Goin Sizzler

Get Buckets is still looking to find their first win, but have improved greatly over the course of the season. We can’t expect them to beat a team like We Goin Sizzler but they have shown they can at least compete now. We Goin Sizzler will look to put Get Buckets away early, but fatigue could be a major factor having to play in the back to back. Don’t expect Hoopsters to win, but also don’t be surprised if Get Buckets make a game of this.
