The Houston Hoopstars won all five games by atleast 20pts, including the long awaited showdown against the Houston Elite (66-45) in the championship of the Low Down Classic.  Prior to the game, there was some challenging chitter-chatter from the Houston Elite aimed towards the Houston Hoopstars.  Once the game started, the Hoopstars went inside to their bread and butter, Cameron Ridley who dominated in the paint.  Combined with his teammates knocking down several open three pointers to loosen the Elite's defense.  Next thing you know, the lead was double digits, and the Hoopstars cruised to their 70th win of the summer.
After the game, assistant coach Jim Thrash was reminded by the players to "make good" on the promise he gave the players earlier this month.  Although Thrash probably doesn't have a single urban music station locked into his radio dial, he stood at midcourt and performed a pretty nice jig which was a consolidation of the "Stanky Leg" and the "Dougie" dances.  The Hoopstars family all exchanged handshakes, hugs, and a heap of love before heading to the house, champions of course.
