1. When We Were Young: Week 1 they went at it with the 2nd ranked team in the league and in the first half it went back and forth for the most part. The second half was a different story; this squad just took over and didn’t look back. They hit 3’s from all over (including Laraib’s half court ones too), forced turnovers, and showed the entire league why they are the top team in the league.
2. GPAK: Ranked as the underdog going into this game, but played as one of the elite teams of the league. They moved the ball well and really hustled throughout the entire game. Danny was a rebounding machine as predicted and the rest of the team hit big shots. As of right now this team is the favorite to hand When We Were Young a loss this season.
3. DX: Last season they steam rolled through the competition each week, but found out this season the competition has gotten better. They played the best team in the league and just had a poor second half. They will bounce back and be a top team going forward.
4. New Era Ballaz: This squad got off to a quick start in the first half by hitting 3s from all over, but cooled off in the 2nd half and allowed MWA to make a comeback. They were able to take care of business and get the W though. The 3 ball will be a major factor on their rankings throughout the season.
5. Buzz City: A combination of GPAK playing lights out and Buzz City dealing with tight jerseys really put a dent on their first week. They were ranked high going into the season and just didn’t play like it last week. With a tough schedule to start the season, they really need to get in form quick or will continue to fall in these rankings.
6. MWA: They had the least amount of guys show up in week 1. They were missing their captain, key players, and had no bench. The guys that did show up played hard throughout the game and put together a nice comeback in the second half, but it was too little too late. They have a solid squad but commitment is the biggest question mark for this team.
7. Bad News Beard: They went at it with Just Dua It in week 1 with both teams playing hard, but BNB came out with the victory. BNB led throughout the game and sealed it in the final minute. Big obstacle in their path for a win streak, they play the number 1 team this week, they’ll need to score a lot more than week 1 to pull off the upset this week.
8. Just Dua It: Got off to a slow start in week 1 with shots just not falling, They’ll look for some more consistency in week 2 and also get themselves headed in the right direction in the rankings.
