STYL and Adrenaline were two pretty evenly matched and similar-styled teams but the x-factor in favor of STYL was their big man Stanley who Adrenaline had no answer for. All the attention given to Stanley opened the floor up for STYL's shooters' like Davis and Sinu. In the only blowout of the night, 24 Seven ran the Bulldogs out of the gym from wire to wire. The Bulldogs were somewhat shorthanded and didn't look as cohesive as they did last week against the Lions in pre-season. Every team puts up a stinker every now and again, so no worries.
The game of the night was Strong Island versus Desert Eagles. The Eagles only had 6 guys suit up but they still somehow managed to keep pace with the mighty Strong Island bunch, who are one of the early favorites in the East. Strong Island built a 10-point second half lead before the Eagles battled all the way back only to turn it over on the last possession. Lions vs. Force was also a good one, but Lions' depth proved to be too much for a Force team that was carried by all-star Tarek once again. A good sign for Force was that they were able to keep it close.
