[quote="gtaballingnation"]Yesterday, St. Martins played an exhibition game against Campion. The final was 78-70, with Martins picking up the W. Astonishingly, Martins was up by 36 at one point of the game. The first half was jaw-dropping, with Martins playing like the showtime lakers. There were alleys, dunks, fancy passes, 3-point shots and defensive intensity. But in the second half they let off a bit, allowing Campion to make a run. Naz Long impressed everyone as he dropped an electrifying 40 points. Not to mention, he made it look very easy and he simply scored at will. Another impressive thing was the crowd. There was so much excitement in that gym, with spectators coming from all around peel just to see them play. The atmosphere was hectic, and I am telling you St. Martins is going to be the toughest gym to play at. As of right now, all their players are eligible for tournaments and exhibition games. However, their ROPSAA eligibilty is still in progress. There is no doubt in my mind that they are the most talented team in the GTA, and I wouldn't be surprised if they go undefeated throughout the season. Although they do lack depth, as only 8 players out of their 14 played yesterday; Naz Long, Jordon Frey, Tremell Mayers, Denzel Lynch-Blair, Alex Rose, Diego Fiorino, Jahmar Neil-Simpson and Roko Biskupovic. This is what their roster looks like;
Starting 5: Naz Long(PG), Tremell Mayers(SG), Alex Rose(SF), Jordon Frey(PF) and Denzel Lynch-Blair(C)
Key Subs: Roko Biskupovic(PG), Jahmar Neil-Simpson(SG), Diego Fiorino(SF) and Shane Miles(PF)
Coach: Amir Morgan
They have a solid 8-9 man rotation, which shouldn't be a problem for them as long as they are able to run hard on both ends of the floor. Other then that, all they need to work on is their chemistry. Once that settles in, it's a wrap. For all teams across the GTA, take this as a warning. Be ready to play when you're playing at "the stable". The St. Martin Mustangs are the real deal, and possibly the best highschool team in the GTA.[/quote]
You joining the forum to give a very descripitive picture of st martins team is a joke.
Couple things come to mind score 78-70 was this a run up and down the court where was the defense?
Naz score 40 points is he the only guy on the team or was it a showcase for him?
What happen to the other impressive players?
I guess it is best to wait until Feb 2012 when Naz suppose to be leaving to play St martins then the joke would be on them, Wait the joke is already on them if all these transfers cannot play in ROPSSAA .Why not play your bech players these are the guys that would have to carry the team in league season.Naz is suppose to leave in Jan 2012 when is he coming back in march 2012?
