In the first half the scores were pretty much tired with the main three scorers from triple threat being Jack Wayde and Mitch who were getting busy in the post and causing all sorts of problems in the paint for the defenders who were utilising a zone to try and slow down the big guys but to know avail...Brent ran the ball up the court and played the point guard position well for Dream Gunz and also scored a bunch getting the game high in points nailing threes and some jumpers and was helped out by a Snowy Who had a great game also efficiently hitting 17 points and nailing his free throws with the two of them combining for just under 40 it should have been enough but the rest of the crew were slowed down and unable to put in their usual points and in the second half they were outscored by 9 points... Giving triple threat the wind this game and a ticket to the grand finals as the Dream Gunz Catch the early bus home again unable to get their chip this season but are keen to run it back and accomplish their dreams sooner rather than later...

Tune Squad Came out firing and looking for their cutters as they work the different game this time around instead of nailing their threes they went inside and loaded up from the mid-range getting Jacob and Curtis good looks to which they nailed most of their attempts to combine for 24 points and it was a 3-point advantage at the half-time for them with the kings hanging in their all the way only a bucket to catch up after the half-time bell and Noah and Chris were starting to heat up and they would eventually combine for 21 when the game was done and this just wasn't enough and without some double digit help from of their team, They went down in the second half as the tune squad went on a 18 to 7 run to finish the game and close out strongly...
