On Monday, 14 November 2016, the Kingdom Ballers and Bulls did it to us, again.  The last time they met, on 10 October, they excited us with four overtimes that ended with the Bulls winning 76 - 73.  On Monday, they shared 10 lead changes, four ties, and two overtimes to determine a victor. 

The first half was a downright battle!  The Bulls were led by (#45) Navarro Davis who scored 15 points with nine of those points coming from beyond the 3-point arc.  Elliot Reed added two 3-pointers for six (6) points.  With seven Kingdom Ballers scoring during the first half, Wason Davis (#21) led the team with 8 points.  The Ballers only made one 3-point shot in the first half.  The Bulls ended the first half with a 30 - 27 point lead.

The second half would be a test for both teams.  The Ballers struggle with matching or exceeding points they score during the first half.  The Bulls are just the opposite.  They have a tendency to score more in the second half because of a strong attempt to overcome the deficit of the first half.  Well both teams are halfway to accomplishing their goals.  The Kingdom Ballers scored 29 second half points behind the scoring and rebounding of their big three:  Lamont Shuford (#11), Joseph Ellison (#33), and Antonio Harris (#22).  The Bulls continued to follow the lead of Navarro Davis who led them, in the second half, with 11 points.  The Bulls scored 26 second half points that allowed the game to end in a 56 - 56 tie and another overtime (#1): Dejavu vu all over again.  Lamont Shuford led the Kingdom Ballers with four (4) points and Desi Johnson (#10) led the Bulls with three (3) points.  Overtime ended with both teams scoring six (6) points and preparation for overtime two.  Quantez Franklin (#7) scored all five (5) points for the bulls, in the second overtime, but the Kingdom Ballers scored a total of 12 points from Wason Davis (#21), Lamont Shuford (#11), Santonio Howard (#32), and Joseph Ellison (#33).  The game ended with the Kingdom Ballers scoring 74 points and the Bulls scoring 67.

The scorers for the Bulls were:  (#24) Elliot Reid with 15 points, (#7) Quantez Franklin with 10 points, (#45) Navarro Davis with 26 points, (#34) Leo Preyer, (#10) Desi Johnson, and (#11) Bernard Jones with 6 points.

The scorers for the Kingdom Ballers were:  (#31) Willie Haynes with 7 points, (#21) Wason Davis with 16 points, (#22) Antonio Harris with 7 points, (#11) Lamont Shuford with 19 points, (#33) Joseph Ellison with 11 points, and (#34) Antonio Anthony with 6 points.
