Poleyeffs: Round 2!!!

NCSY Kollel August 13, 2015

Bracket Semis

 

 

Nothing is more exciting than playoff basketball on NCSY Kollel!  What an incredible second round!  While many thought the games could not get any better than they had been in the opening round, they did just that.

While the Kazmanian Devils (1) defeated the Buahs 2.0 (9) soundly, and Gilligan’s Island (2) was victorious over Fear the Beards (10) without too much difficulty, the other two games were last second thrillers.

As the clock wound down in the game between Siyata Dishmaya (11) and the Hirschey Bars (3), Siyata Dishmaya found themselves in a hole once again.  And down 3, with mere seconds remaining on the clock, they would dig themselves out of the hole the same way they had just the day before.  For the second day in a row, as time expired, Yair Isaacs drained a far 3-pointer to tie the game and send it to OT!!  The score remained tied and the teams headed to double OT.  With the Hirschey Bars taking a 1-point lead with 5 seconds to go, Siyata Dishmaya would get one last look, but could not make the shot this time.  This outcome would be different, and the Hirschey Bars hung on to win a close one.

In the final, most exciting game of the day, the Bruh Crew (5) seemed to be putting away Buchs by Dr. Dre (13) with ease.  Leading by 11 with less than 3 minutes to go, the game appeared to be practically over.  But the “Buchs” had other plans.  As they continued to chip away at the lead, Buchs by Dr. Dre found themselves with the ball, down a single point, with only 1 second remaining in the game.  As they inbounded the and set a pick for the shooter, Eitan Drazin heaved the ball towards the net and drained the 3-pointer at the buzzer to upset the Bruh Crew!!!  It was an incredible scene which you can watch unfold yourself right here: Eitan Drazin Buzzer Beater.

It was truly an amazing day of wild games on the courts!  Can’t wait to see what the semis bring!
