Brixton Topcats, 88 Killamarsh Derbyshire Arrows 54
To Brixton Rec! …on Sunday afternoon for the b-ball game between the high-flying Topcats and the barely leaving the ground Arrows.
Dontcha just LOVE reverse nominal determinism?
I also LOVE the best seats in the house. The main court at the Rec makes watching a basketball game all the more exciting, without the banks of seats along the side.
EVERY seat in the house is the best, to be honest. A courtside up close and personal. No need to apologies fella when the beads of sweat added an extra layer of reality to my matchday experience.
This is a young Topcats team that is setting a superb example for all within the Brixton basketball family. Even younger Yoof watched on from the sidelines, hopeful that they could soon make the progression to playing with the big boys.
The game itself was never really in any doubt as soon as the Topcats started ticking over the scoreboard in the first quarter. The game plan was simple: take your 3-pointers and defend down the other end.
Simple game, really.
It worked to perfection for the Topcats. A 46-29 home lead going into the break led to the Arrows receiving a centre court roasting from the Coach. It might have worked for Phil Brown at Hull City, but the Falcons were to find it harder still in the third and fourth quarters.
.@brixtontopcats lead 46-29 at the break. Looking strong #Brixton

The Topcats’ chant of DE-FENCE at the end of each Time Out told you all you needed to know about the game. The 3-pointers continued to flow down at the other end of the court, leading to a comfortable 88-54 home win for the Topcats come the final buzzer.
No reverse nominal determinism in the name of the TOPcats.
Some BIG 3 pointers in the 4th saw @brixtontopcats stretch to a superb 88-54 home win at the Rec #Brixton
