Davison had a 30 point, 13 assist, 11 rebound triple double and drew lots of praise from the Cleveland TV guy.

Miles Norris played and was not particularly impressive. Part of that might be due to unfamiliarity with his new environs.

Drew Peterson was there but not in uniform. Reportedly he got kneed in the leg by Drummond last night and was feeling it today.

Scrubb and Enaruna did pretty well. The Cleveland Charge play in a great old arena.


Pretty sure the Peterson injury happened early in the 1st qtr. I left a comment in the game thread when I saw him running up the floor gingerly. He was on his way to 30min and 20 points before that :D

Maine played earlier and lost in OT. Davison got his usual huge stats. Enaruna looked good. He could be a future two way player for somebody. New guy Wheeler played, and looked Gleagueish.

About Miles Norris: He does just one thing well, but it's the best possible thing to be able to do well in modern times. He can shoot the three with length, quick release, and distance. He doesn't seem to excel at anything else, and is not as meaningful a presence on the court as you'd like to see.

His size, shooting ability and experience make their the decision to give him that 2 year 2 way a good plan for him IMO.

Yeah, it's worth seeing if he can grow his game. He starts with that three point shot, and they build him out from there. Everything else has to improve, including physical strength.

Wouldn't be surprised to see PP and him working out together this offseason.

I'm multitasking by peeking at the Maine game in Greensboro.

Miles Norris just had a nice run of two threes sandwiched around a decent defensive play. That long shot of his is looking pretty good. Maine is way ahead at the moment.

We were tied going into this with Greensboro in 2nd Place, Maine in 3rd.
4 Games left, Celtics have a chance to move into 1st Place.

Edit:
Celtics are just below Capital City, Basically tied for 1st Place.

Maine is now in first place. The standings have been adjusted.

6 guys in double figures for Maine tonight, led by the three two wayers.

Celtics drop down to 2nd Place, by half a Game, with 2 more Games to play.
The Magic are ahead, but have 5 Games left.

No Peterson or Davison, who are in the other Portland with the other Celtics.

Great 2nd half for the Claws Maines to get the win. Miles Norris looks nice and Tristan Enaruna gets the postgame interview.
