PFOL News & Notes
With the 2nd half of the PFOL season about to
start up today lets look at some notes from around the league
The Early MVP
This unfortunately goes to Nic Hendrix who simply has been
dominating. He’s averaged 14 pts 10
boards and he is one (real stat) of only 3 players in the league that shoots
over 50% for the season. Yes, only 3 out
of 37 players shot over 50%, there are some people who have only taken 2 or 3
shots for the season and they still are under 50%. Richie Smith is a great shooter and not even
close to 50%. What’s better is there
are straight 8 people shooting under 20%.
That is freaking terrible. So
Nic is the first half MVP simply for being on winning team and shooting
well.
Aaron Weaver vs Zac Fronterhouse who is going to score first?
At the halfway point both players are scoreless, the bet
here is to score first is Fronterhouse.
He has actually scored in a PFOL game before (as recently as PFOL 11) so
there is visual evidence that he can do it. Unfortunately, for Aaron Weaver
no one has ever seen him make a basket, combine that with the fact he’s only
made it to one game he’s a great bet to go scoreless for the season.
Jake Ollier!!!!!!
You looked me off a couple of times last game homie. Remember its team Elzy not team Ollier. Thanks
Where is CT?
After being given team captain status for the second
straight season, Chris Taylor promptly abandoned his team, the rumor is that he
has finally returned from his homeland but his team is struggling at 1-2
Best Stat Line of the Season so far:
This goes to Kirby, not sure if he’s helping or
hurting his team but he’s 2-15 from the floor for the season, 2nd
on the team in blocks, a top rebounder, a top 10 assist guy in the league,
and the only person out there rockin’ short sweat shorts. Interesting rookie debut
He's says he's a creator but may be a cancer
Let’s recall when Andrew Bynum came to the Pacers, he wasn’t
playing, he was overweight, and had to get into game shape first so he could
play. Now let’s look at Justin Ramquist
going to team Burger, he hasn’t been playing, he’s overweight and he’s trying to
get into game shape first so he can play.
The parallels don’t’ stop there.
They both have been a part of Championship teams where they barely
contributed and both consistently alienate teammates to the point that they
just want them to go away. His free
agent signing could be an issue for Team Burger who is 3-0 and has the most
balanced team in the league. Ramquist
for his part has continued his Bynum parody and is already out for his first
game. I'm skeptical that he'll help Team Burger
