1990 Semifinals
#1 Simeka Sleuths 96, #5 Irving Crows 75
If the first round wasn't enough for basketball fans to swoon over, the Sleuths' semifinal performance against the Crows certainly proved that Simeka could be consistently dominant. They took a 10-point lead to halftime and never looked back. Brody Rizzo slammed Irving for 48 points and 12 assists. Malachi Lewis looked great on the offensive end for the Crows (28 points, 10 assists) but clearly couldn't contain the league MVP. Sol Renfro played a solid second fiddle for the Sleuths, contributing 22 points and six rebounds of his own. For the second time in four seasons, the city of Simeka will send their team to the OCS Finals!!

#2 Soup 82, #3 Gin City Porkers 88
This game had everything - the drama, the almost-fights, the tension, the fireworks... it crushed the television ratings record for a non-OCS Finals game in the history of the league. Soup's Clarence Poole and Gin City's Ibrahim Mohammed got tangled up underneath the basket before being separated. In a different moment in the first half, Porker PG Otis Carter took offense to a hard foul by Soup's Horace Suggs, leading eventually to bench warnings being issued by officials to both teams. From there, the game was defined by physicality. Players on both sides were going to see bumps and bruises pop up the next day. The first half was tightly contested, with Soup leading by a point. At the half, Carter and Suggs exchanged words near halfcourt, with Carter ending the conversation with "Call me in 20 minutes." Prophetically, Otis Carter put the team on his back, scoring 23 of his 28 points in the second half, including 12 in the last five minutes. While Suggs and Poole kept up the pace, it was the Porkers' three-headed monster of Carter, Mohammed, and Byron No that dominated the end of the game. Carter could not miss and No played lockdown defense on Soup's role players. Mohammed excelled in a defensive role, racking up another double-double in the victory. Soup fans were once again left disappointed and in shock at the end of the game. Gin City's repeat hopes remain alive!
