COMMERCE, MI REC: The Road To The Gold!

The semi-final playoff match-ups are set after last week quarterfinal games and the teams are ready for their run at the championship. Some upsets in the quarterfinal games caused us to have a two heated semi-final games. The preparations have begun and the scouting reports are complete. Each match-up has its own flavor to it and should be exciting. The match-ups are as follows:


#1 Spartans vs. Sons Of Basketball


This match-up will be a heated one all night. On the surface you see that these teams played each other in the regular season and the Spartans pulled off the victory, but if you dig a little deeper. The game was close until the last few minutes of the second half where Sons Of Basketball consistently showed its flaws with turnovers and terrible shot selection. If floor General Darius Statum can somehow learn to compose himself by Thursday night he can give the one of the teams to beat a run for their money. Spartans on the other hand feel like they are hitting their stride. Their chemistry has been amazing all season. After joining the Rec League this season since the Top Flight League fell apart the Spartans might have a chance to win their first championship, due to the fact that Diamond Island Split up because the Rec League has a salary cap.


#2 C4 vs. Dream Killers


This match-up might be the biggest one yet. Both teams are yet to play each other but have played together last season. GM Joseph Kassis originally put together a dynasty team in the Top Flight League, but after beating every team season after season no teams wanted to play against Diamond Island. Creating a huge Rec League GM Joseph Kassis had to split up his dynasty team because of the salary cap in the Rec League, which caused Deadly Shooter Brandon Cassise to create his own team. Dream Killers are one of the few teams who can match C4’s speed, but they have been having a little bit of trouble putting their size and chemistry together to have a perfect season like C4 has done in the past. If C4 can dominate down in the post, and Sharp Shooter Jeff Jayson knocks down more three’s than Brandon Cassise then C4 should have no problem winning this game.


The Semi-Final games will be intense and more then one team has the talent and ability to win a title, but who will put it all together when they need to? These playoffs will be a test of composure and execution. Which team is ready?
