Max's All Stars win Summer 2011 season finale

Max's All Stars finished the Summer 2011 Basketball City Tuesday East A-Division season on a high note with a 78-65 win over the defending Spring champions, NECO. Former Hofstra forward and current New York Wizard, Darren Townes, played for NECO and had a good game. However, Max's All Stars were at their strongest with a lineup featuring Troy Whittington (26 points), Josiah Peay (who scored 6 points in his debut for the team), Earl Mills (6 points), Marvin Billups Jr (6 points), Branden Gibson and Eric Olsen (2 points each) joining regulars Patrick James (13 points) and Corey Orgias (17 points). After taking a 10-point halftime lead, Max's All Stars were sluggish at the start of the second half until Head Coach, Max Margulis, called a timeout to allow his players to settle down a little bit, reminding them that there was only 5:42 remaining in the season. The team proceeded to go on a roll towards victory after that. Max's All Stars finish the season with a 2-6 record.
