CVBL: Miami Beats Oklahoma Cty 93-87
Miami star Keeney led his team to a win today in a key game against Oklahoma Cty. Although standings were at stake, the game was as much about bragging rights as anything. The teams have a long history against each other that began when coaches Bob and Bob traded insults after an apparently intentional injury to one of Bob's players. Although Bob has long denied that there was any malicious intent, Miami fans don't believe it and turn out in large numbers whenever Oklahoma Cty comes to town.
Miami was led by Keeney (21 points, 10 boards, 1 assists), Fisher (7 points), Gleeson (17 points, 6 boards, 0 assists, a steal, a block). Oklahoma Cty was led by Golden (24 points, 17 boards, 0 assists, 3 blocks), Walston (10 points, 11 boards, 0 assists, 3 blocks), Johnson (16 points, 5 boards, 0 assists, a steal).
Miami are now 21-18 and 14-5 at home after today's win. They hold at #1 in the Southeast and hold at #3 overall in the Eastern Conference. With this loss, Oklahoma Cty fall to 20-20. They stay at #4 in the Northwest and stay at #9 overall in the Western Conference.
