It was all smoke leading up to the season opener after Coach boldly declared he was “good in the West” and claimed the competition this season didn’t measure up to his team’s caliber.
But when the lights came on, it was a different story. In a highly anticipated matchup against their long-time rivals, Coach’s squad came up short — handing him an early and humbling L to start the season.
The biggest storyline of the night? Former Boomer Frosty, now on Coach’s roster, was outclassed by his replacement — Boomerz PG JPEAK, who put on a clinic. JPEAK exploded for 31 points and 11 assists, torching the defense by going 8-for-9 from three with zero turnovers in a flawless performance that sent a clear message to the league.
As one Boomerz fan put it:
“He said he was good in the West… but the West wasn’t good to him.”
It’s only Week 1, but if this game is any indication — the road to dominance out West might be a lot tougher than Coach expected.
