Phil is 2-1 in tournament championship games, winning in 2004 and 2010 and losing in 2009.
Season series
Mike dominated the only meeting this season, winning 170-79 in Game 2. Devin Thomas scored 52 and Erick Green 51 to lead what remains the highest team total this season. Phil's 79 also marked his lowest total of the season. Mike's 91-point margin of victory is the largest of the season.
At stake
The tournament champion receives $149 while the runner-up receives nothing. Mike has already won $50 for his regular-season championship. The highest-scoring team for each regular-season game won $2.
OK, I had a few drinks so I decided to do the math on Banks-Phil.
ReplyDeleteHeading into the UNC game, Phil was ahead 88-79. Phil has Strickland, Banks has Hairston. And with 11:33 left in the game, Phil was ahead by one point. And Hairston has an injured shoulder. The drama!
I am jealous of your success. My team sucked this year.
