The Lake Michigan Admirals are causing waves in the ABA Power Rankings over the last two weekends by beating the Pittsburgh Phantoms last weekend and by taking down the #2 Chicago Steam Saturday night, 119-109, in front of a crowd of approximately 600 at Lake Michigan Catholic. This all is the product of some major moves, like players buying into Coach Buck Riley's coaching philosophy and the addition of a quality point guard in Brandon Ball (5'11''-G-86, college: Michigan Tech), and a towering center in Jermaine Middleton (7'3''-C, college: Northwood Fl.). The last team addition is James Booyer (6'8''-F-86, college: IUPUI). GM Chris Glisson might just take home the General Manager of the year award...... In yesterday night win, Odgra Bobo (6'6''-F-85, college: Oakland CC) led the Admirals with 23 points and 27 rebounds (!!), Anthony Slater (5'9''-G-79, college: Florida Atlantic) had a triple double with 12 points, 11 steals, and 12 assists. Brandon Ball, newly acquired from the PBL's Vermont Frost Heaves on Thursday, had 21 points and 8 assists and more importantly kept Royce Perrin (5'9''-G-85), from the Steam, to only 8 points. Former Houston Rocket Sam Mack (6'7''-G/F-70, college: Houston) only had 13 points for Chicago as well.
