When I was playing, I used to resent being singled out as a
Jewish ballplayer,” he said. “I wanted to be known as a great
ballplayer, period....Lately, though, I find myself wanting to be
remembered not only as a great ballplayer, but even more as a great
Jewish ballplayer. I realize now, more than I used to, how important a
part I played in the lives of a generation of Jewish kids who grew up
in the 30̓s. -- Hank Greenberg, Detroit Tigers Slugger and Hall of Famer
The CBL playoffs. Where Pete fixing CBL games happen. no not really. This week we have 2 exciting games. Its the Simchi/Elan battle, and the other game is the Shaps/Igor battle. One question is who will be on the happier side when Igor and Shapsie are driving back home after tuesday night.
IGOR V.S. SHAPSIE
Last Week Shapsie's team held Tvi's team to 26 points in the entire game. Can you say good defense? or can you say an easy opponent? Only time will tell when we play Shapsie on Tuesday. Last Week Leiby hit 12 Free throws. That had to be the factor in the game V.S. Tzvi. In the upcoming game all the little things matter. Free throws. Carless Fouls. And Smart Play. We are playing on the three point court. Which is a positive for Pine, Amir and Myself. The last time we played this team i hit 5 three's to lead my team over Shapsie. I hope i can do the same this week. We havent played in 2 weeks, so we have to step it up. Amir has to play well for us to win. If Shapsie can play his role as a pass first point guard then they might pull out a victory. This will be close, and fun to watch.

MARK V.S. ELAN game of the week!
Simchi against Elan. That has to be a classic. 2 of the greatest CBL players of all time. (I Love how i make the league look so official =)) Mark's team has been playing well all season. Even when Simchi wasnt their Israel Golumb and even Zeev stepped up. This game is all about team work. Simchi has to set the pace for his team and look for open players. I cant wait to see what Simchi does this week because he was by my house this shabbos and hes anxious to play this game already. Elan got passed a tough team last week with ease. Dovid Hindy stepped up big leading them in scoring. And the "Other" strobel contributed big with 10 points, which was a high for him. Elan played the leader role every week for this team. It didnt lead them to be the best team but it lead them this far. Lets see if he could overcome the "Simchi" obstacle. I think Mark Will come out with the win. His team is to tough.
