Some of the regulars will be out of the country today and some injured, so Team A and B will have exactly 5 players. Please com as early as you can (7pm or earlier preferably) to get the games started. Jamie will sub for Team B and Glenn will sub for Team A. Stats for today's games will not be updated until the end of next week. Injury Update John Wong - ankle - day to day Video of the Week courtesy of B-MacI'd have to say probably the best viral video right now. If you've seen this and follow the Raptors you know... So no ball this week... however video of the week is an oldie but a goodie! Keeping with the kick to the face theme... Video of the WeekWeekly Totals, League Leaders and Team stats are all updated. Also, I've added 2 new categories to the League Leaders section called 'Player Game High's' and 'Team Game High's'. It pretty much shows the top game high's of each stat by players and teams.
Since Team B is short 2 regular players (John and Phil C) they will be replaced by 2 sub players Jamie and Glenn, making each team 6 players deep. Be sure to be at the gym by 7:00pm so we can get the games started. I, and others have noticed the steals in the stats are incorrect at times. That being said let me clarify how the steal gets credited. According to the rulebook there are a couple of ways to be credited for a steal. 1) the offensive player throws a pass or loses control of the ball and the defensive player gains control of the ball 2) the offensive player has possession of the ball but is knocked away by 'defender A' and 'defender B' gains control of the ball. Most of the time our stat-takers give 'defender B' the credit for the steal. That is actually incorrect, 'defender A' should get credit for the steal because they initiated it. Picture of the Week

News Monday, November 1, 2010 No games this week =o( we will start again next week, Thursday November 11! Weekly Totals, League Leaders, Teams and Player High's have been updated for Week 6. Thursday, October 28, 2010 Team B has only 4 players today therefore they will be getting 2 sub players, Jamie and perhaps Glenn. The last remaining sub Sanford will be making his season debut and will go to Team C for rebounding help. Or he will go between Team A and C. We can finalize it tonight! Monday, October 25, 2010 3 in the Key rule If the defender notices the offensive player in the key politely (not yell) count '1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3 mississippi', most likely the offense player will leave the key and come back. If the defender forgets to count but knows for sure that is has been more than 3 seconds simply let the player know '3 seconds'. No turnover will be given or no game stoppage. This keeps the flow of the game clean and with less turnovers. Friday, October 22, 2010 Will suggested to start posting everyone's weekly total numbers. I will do so under the 'Week 1' section, however it will be renamed to 'Weekly Totals' shortly Game Highs for the Oct 21 games Points Brian McDonald 35 Jamie Lee 31 Darren Shum and Henry Yao 23 3-Pointers Jamie Lee 9 David Tam and Henry Yao 5 Rebounds Brian McDonald 26 Sam Iu 19 Assists Michael Santos 9 Ricky Tolentino 6 Steals Darren Shum 7 Brian McDonald and Michael Santos 5 Blocks Brian McDonald 2 Philip Lee, Michael Santos, Darren Shum, Jacky So and David Tam 1 Boston Celtics 5-1 Team B 3-3 Team C 1-5 Congratulations to Alvin, Mike C, Jamie, Phil L, Alan, Brian M, Jacky and John for getting new personal Game Highs this week!

Which means Jamie will sub for any team that has late players, leaves early, injured, no shows, etc. We will also try out the Team Foul rule today. I have put up a quick Bio on every player, if you would like to change something, make your own Bio or feel I should add something to it let me know. Hopefully, over time I can add a Bio picture with action shots and videos! Lastly, do you want to give our Thursday league a name? Any suggestions please post in the Players Blog. Below are my sad attempts of thinking of a name... LOL ABA (Amateur Basketball Association) JBA (John's Basketball Association) for obvious reasons RBU (Rec Ball United) soccer feel to it TBL (Thursday Basketball League) ??? Or we could not name our Thursday league. Give your opinion about that as well. Speaking of giving names, how about Team names as well rather than Team A, B and C? If we make new teams later we make new names. Wednesday, October 20, 2010 Rule Change Starting tomorrow we will implement an added rule to Thursday night basketball. Team Fouls will now be regulated. Quick summary: *6 Team Fouls *7th Team Foul and every foul after will result in ONE free throw plus the ball *Shooting Fouls will be the only fouls that accumulate *Other fouls (reach-in, loose ball, etc.) will result in possession only, not added on to Team Fouls see 'Rules' section for more detail Also, a players blog is added to talk about anything that is on your mind and I've updated the Players page with a short bio and Game High's Monday, October 18, 2010 Game Highs for Oct 14 games Points Darren Shum 28 Jamie Lee 25 David Tam 24 3-Pointers David Tam and Henry Yao 4 Jamie Lee 3 Rebounds Brian McDonald 29 Michael Santos 18 Assists Jamie Lee 9 Michael Santos 6 Steals Darren Shum 6 Michael Santos 4 Blocks Brian McDonald 4 Glenn Navarro 2 Team A 2-4 Team B 4-2 Team C 3-3 (note: I did not include game 9 that was played but it was added to the total player averages instead) Thursday, October 14, 2010 Make sure Team B and Team C are at the gym promptly at 7pm so they can play Game 9 from last week right away. Also, based on attendance emails each team will have exactly 5 players each. Jamie will be playing for Team B.
