The last matchup should have ended before it began. With the league's worst team seeking coaching advice from anyone still sitting in the bleachers, this game became a clinic for a very poised Sharh squad (who only fielded 4 players this game). Al-Masad simply could not buy a ticket across the half court line and Sharh found it difficult to shoot from anywhere closer than 2 feet from the basket. Although Al-Masad has been in this position before, Sharh was nice enough to show class and brotherhood in not trying to run up the score even though it inevitably did. Game highlights came from Al-Masad's entire team for playing their hearts out and portraying a sincere love for the game. Sharh finishes its season at 7-1, good for 14 points and 2nd place. Al-Masad finishes its season winless but had some very entertaining games, and the players should be commended for showing sportsmanship and brotherhood despite their difficult season.
