3PT Festival at the Oval!
In one of the Rogues more entertaining games recently there were a lot of points scored in this one. Reno missed it's first shot but then went on to hit 4 3's in a row to start the game. That was a prelude to what quickly became a 3 point shootout all night. Almost every optional 3 turned into one and a whole bunch of the "3pt" as only option came up. Home team went 11 for 28 from downtown while Hal's shooters were 12 of 32. Despite trailing for the entire contest, sometimes by as many as 23, Richmond was able to score 30 points on the fast break to make it respectable at the end, losing (without Horford) by a 11 in this high scoring (for us anyway) affair. Both George Hill and Dorell Wright hadd 26 points for Richmond, while Kobe poured in 38 while shooting 68% for the T-Bars.
