Sunday, August 16 in the BLPL — and Sky Blue came out swinging with a statement double-header sweep over the Black Legends. In Game 1, Sky Blue won 84-70 in a full four-quarter battle, but Game 2 was an absolute demolition: 100-54. A hundred points. The Black Legends had no answer, and the trio of OhhDuce, lavonn22, and OG K1D9255 made sure of it. OhhDuce led all scorers in Game 1 with 28 points and dished 11 assists for a double-double. lavonn22 took over in Game 2 with 27 points and 10 assists — another double-double. And OG K1D9255? That man put up a full-on triple-double — 13 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, with 2 steals and 2 blocks. Sky Blue is making noise, and the Black Legends are now on a three-game skid.

Over in the Green Lightning house, Shep2Surgical_ was absolutely cooking — 35 points to lead Green Lightning to a 105-77 win over Purple Reign. Eyem-Tuff backed him up with a double-double: 12 points and 16 rebounds. RealSir215 added 23 points and 13 assists for yet another double-double. Green Lightning ran Purple Reign out of the building in the third quarter, outscoring them 31-10 in the frame. Purple Reign now sits at 10-29 with a five-game losing streak — it is getting rough in the Eastern basement.

The Mulberry Sentinels swept their two-game set against Purple Reign to push their winning streak to seven. llCBandzzzll led the way in Game 1 with 26 points as Mulberry won 58-45, then came back in Game 2 as the road team and handled business 46-34. The Sentinels are 29-10 and locked in as one of the hottest teams in the league right now. Meanwhile, the Pink Panthers split their series with Dark Green Gardenz — JustSimey dropped 29 for the Gardenz in Game 1 to steal a 85-78 road win, but BradenDerulo and the Pink Panthers bounced back with a dominant 95-71 win at home in Game 2. The Panthers have now won eight straight and are quietly one of the most dangerous teams in the West.
