Game Stats and Recap (11-12): Hamamatsu Higashimikawa Phoenix vs. Kyoto Hannaryz
Phoenix Has Done It Again! Coming out of the weekend with two wins against Kyoto Hannaryz. Phoenix's record is now 11-1. Keeping a focused mind on the goal of another championship that is within reach. After speaking with Jeff Pamer, he stated during the first game (Game 11) against Kyoto Hannaryz:
"We knew that this game would be another challenge in this young season. We came out in the 1st half and played with great team chemistry and team defense which helped us to a double digit lead at the half. In the second half, Kyoto came out with a never say die attitude. Being that they had a huge rebounding advantage, they used that as fuel to cut into the large lead that we held. In the 4th quarter they trimmed the lead down to as many as nine points. But in the end, we held our own and defended and rebounded when we needed to in the key moments of the game."
One thing is for sure about about Phoenix, glory is not a simple win. This team knows what they are capable of and are aware of the talent that each player brings to the court. Satisfaction is when each player has brought their "A" game to the court and have played to the best potential. If ever there is a time that Phoenix has struggled during their first game of the week, they return for game 2 with a vengeance. During (Game 12), Parmer stated, " Our mentality in this game was to come out and play much better than we did the night before. I think we did a great job of doing so seeing as we lead at the half by 21 points and ended up winning by 25 points. Coach was very proud of how we maintained what we accomplished in the 1st half and we seemed to never let up in the 2nd half. We know that we cannot be content on whatever kind of lead we have going into the the 3rd quarter because in this game of basketball anything can happen. It just depends on which way the ball bounces.
GO PHOENIX!!!

Game Stats and Recap (9-10): Hamamatsu Higashimikawa Phoenix vs. Saitama Broncos
Phoenix is proving that the road to success is a formula of teamwork and dedication. Phoenix played the Broncos this past weekend (Game 9) at home with two consecutive wins. This puts Phoenix at the top of the charts holding down the number one spot in the BJ league. This team is definitely working hard to prove that Phoenix is the best team in East as well as the entire league.
In Saturday's match-up, the 1st half proved to be our half. We played well in all aspects of the game that helped us to a 14 point lead. The 2nd half was a different story. We came out and played very flat. We had too many defensive breakdowns. Many breakdowns that lead to Saitama getting open 3-point shots and us giving up numerous dribble penetrations and easy lay-ups. If it wasn't for what we did as a team in the 1st half, the game would have been a lot closer than what it was. All in all we came out with another victory.
Game 9: Score 96-83
Parmer stats: 17 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals
Game 10: Score 90-60
Parmer stats: 14 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal
This weekend we travel to play Kyoto Hannaryz

From beginning to end this was a great game for us. It was fun to play and to watch as well. As coach always preaches to us we played Phoenix basketball. Our defense and rebounding was the main key. We had a huge advantage on the boards being that a lot of times Saitama was forced to play with smaller players on the court to try and speed up the pace of the game so they could cut into the lead. It didn't seem to work for them. From the 1st man to the 12th man on our team, everyone got playing time which was fun to see. The crowd enjoyed watching the players who usually do not get many minutes on our team play, and play well might I add. Coach was very pleased with the effort in which we put forth on the court for the entire game. It was a great win!!! GO PHOENIX!!!
Thank you to all the fans that supported us and continue to support Phoenix!

Game stats and recap (7-8): Hamamatsu Higashimikawa Phoenix vs. Niigata Albirex
This past weekend the team came out with back to back wins against Niigata Albirex. After Game 7, it was evident that we need to keep our game face on every minute of the game, no matter how much of an advantage we have as a team. Parmer reported, "Overall as a team we did not play to the best of our ability during the entire 40 minutes of the game. In the first half we played like a team that is in 1st place in the Eastern Conference. The second half, we played as if the game was already over. In the end, we squeezed out the victory off of a last dunk made by Ray Nixon. At the end of the day a win is win, whether it be an ugly or pretty win."
Game 8 proved that a win does not have full satisfaction until it is fulfilled with the taste of glory and hard work. Sunday night, Phoenix came out and played hungry ready to claim a win that proves they are worthy of another championship. Parmer reported, "We were not content with the win we had the previous night. Therefore, coming out and playing the way we are capable was a must. We stayed with the game plan every second we were on the court. Overall, it was a very good win against a good team."
