ATLANTA, GA: Preview Week 7 | Are you built for this?
Mike Turner is built for this
Free Agents vs. Gawd Squad 7pm
This is my “BBQ” chicken game of the night. I feel sorry for what Gawd Squad is about to do to the Free Agents Team. If Mike “I Wear Running Shoes” McCarthy shoots as he did last week 10-22 from 3pt range, which is an astonishing 45% it will be a very long night for Free Agents. All five starters were in double figures and Gawd Squad are looking like they are reaching all cylinders. For the Free Agents I am calling out Andrew Brown. Are you built for this? Are you built to rise to the challenge and help this team to the next level? This team has been playing tough week in and week out but can’t seem to play a full 44 mins. Andrew Brown if you are built for this then you will get a win against the top seeded team in the league. Last week, Brown scored 11 points and to be honest that will not cut it against Gawd Squad. You will at least have to have 20/10/5 to have a chance against the top seeded team. So I ask again, are you built for this?
Prediction: Gawd Squad by 40
Enough Said vs Known Shooters 8pm
This is my “Head Scratching” game of the night. I do not understand the Known Shooters. This team has All-Stars on paper but on the court are playing like the Philadelphia 76ers. Everyone plays, “I am going to get mine first” kind of basketball instead of “team” basketball. If this team just plays defense and I mean solid defense then they can be a championship caliber team. As I scratch my head about the make-up of this team, I ponder the fact that chemistry can’t be the issue, as majority of the players have played together before. Maybe it’s leadership? Do they lack the leadership that it takes to be a champion? Do they even known how to win? Can they play defense for an entire 44 min game? I am scratching my head so much I can see the dandruff fall from the flakiness of this team. Known Shooters are you built for this? Can you as a team step up to the challenge, and stop being an embarrassment when you play? Shape up or shape out. Stop blaming the refs and play your game. So I ask again, are you built for this?
Prediction: Enough Said by 11
Team Follies/ Late Starters vs Mumford Returns 9pm
This is my “55in Wide Screen/ Surround Sound Tv Watch” game of the night. These two teams do not like each other and Mumford Returns got embarrassed and I do mean embarrassed in week 4. Throughout the season the only two losses that Mumford Returns had, they scored under 70 points. This team is a high power offense but if the game is slowed down then they are bound to lose. Bryan “Public Enemy #1” Gates told reporters. “ I promise you that we will not lose to this team twice.” If that is going to be the case, they will need a big production out of Jon Strauss who does the grunt work that does not always shows up in the stat sheet. Strauss is a roll player who will play solid defense, rebound, set screens and battle with the best of them. I like his guys game because he is all about business and does whatever it takes to help his team wins. When these two teams played in week 4 Ryan Mumford had an off night but I expect for him to hit his go to mid range jump shot and bring it to David “This Is My League” Votta. For Team Follies/Late Starters I am calling out Sean “I Come To The Gym Early” Moffett. When are you going go step it up and play like your capable of? Moffett is easily a double figure scorer but has not scored in double figures since week 2 of the season. I know you are trying to find your roll on this team but in order this team to win against a hungry Mumford Returns team, you will have to be the X-Factor. Are you built for this Moffett? Can you except the challenge and carry Team Follies/ Late Starters to a much needed win against you rivals. David “ This Is My League” Votta called out Byran Gates by stating, “BG you will not score over 10 points and if you do score over 10 points I will make sure you will at least get an L.” This is going to be an “A-1 steak sauce” type of game, how do you like your steak? So my finial question is, are you built for this?
Predication: Team Follies by 3, Doug Rhodes with the game winner
