Final Round of the Playoff - Feb 21, 2010 (by Matthew Kyle)
Today's games will give us merely are formalities. Four teams have already clinched their Super Playoff births. The only thing that may come of today's game are slight changes in the standings. JSK plays USM and could possibly move to 3rd in the standings but this changes nothing because the two teams standing at the top are the heavy favorites. ESS has clinched home court advantage throughout the Super Playoff and SN will have it in round 1

Today's games will give us merely are formalities. Four teams have already clinched their Super Playoff births. The only thing that may come of today's game are slight changes in the standings. JSK plays USM and could possibly move to 3rd in the standings but this changes nothing because the two teams standing at the top are the heavy favorites. ESS has clinched home court advantage throughout the Super Playoff and SN will have it in round 1. A final meaningless game this weekend between CSC and ESR is merely for pride. CSC is looking for their first win in the Play Off and their best chance is tonight against Rades; otherwise their record will stand at a shameful 0-14.
The last chance for any team to make anything of their seasons is the Tunisian Cup. The selection has been made but not publicized yet.

Round 13: Monastir Rades close call or not as close as it seemed? - Feb 15, 2010 (by Matthew Kyle)
USM and ESR both came out the gate firing. USM had no answer for Darius Joseph (188-G-86, college: N.Dakota) off the pick and roll and Rades had no answer for DeAndre Rice (191-G-85, college: Florida Atlantic) and Amine Maghrebi both firing on all cylinders. The score was neck and neck until the 3rd quarter when USM pulled away by 13 on a triple by DeAndre Rice

USM and ESR both came out the gate firing. USM had no answer for Darius Joseph (188-G-86, college: N.Dakota) off the pick and roll and Rades had no answer for DeAndre Rice (191-G-85, college: Florida Atlantic) and Amine Maghrebi both firing on all cylinders. The score was neck and neck until the 3rd quarter when USM pulled away by 13 on a triple by DeAndre Rice. The game was out of reach from then on but they came back at the end when Darius Darius Joseph was goin to the line every posession and they cut it to 4 in the last min of the game. DeAndre had a season high 30 points. 'I am capable of doing this every night but because I usually am not the only import player playing I usually have to share minutes.' said Rice. Tonight was different with the recent transation of Omar Seck and Lewis Fadipe. USM won the match 79-74.
ESS and JSK was a blow out game. ESS dominated from the word go and ended up winning 90-54.
CSC-CA proved to be an interesting game. CSC is still looking for their first victory in the Playoff. They seem to play every team close no matter the opponent but can't seem to pull a win out. CA won in the 4th quarter 68-61.
The last game of the night was SN and EZS. With import Center Matthew Kyle (211-C-86, college: Yale) out with a sprained ankle EZS needed a miracle to win against SN. The game was close for the first 3 minutes but after that SN pushed the lead to 10 and never looked back. Matthew had been playing on a bum ankle for the past 4 games and now that EZS only has the cup left he skipped the game against SN. He has 10 days rest to get back to 100%.
