New Jersey (Central): Ramla (D2)

Power Ranking Trend

Power Ranking By Week
WEEK RECORD RANK COMMENTS
Week 8 5-3 3

No Mattias this week but they still got past Messiah. Sami Butt has been taking the reins and Omar Subhani’s been consistent as of late. Harris Jawad looks like a perfect scorer when he gets the ball. 
Week 6 4-2 2

Mattias being kicked out of the game towards the end of the first half really killed the momentum of this squad, but that shouldn’t take away from Sami Butt’s (24pts, 9-17 shooting) performance. Before that, a concern is that they start off really slow, and get down in a hole; two weeks in a row now. Besides that, they really pushed Beit Jala hard throughout, and had plenty of shots to win the game. If Mattias played the whole game, I know the outcome would’ve been different.
Week 5 4-1 1

We got a new #1 in the league, who were down at the half but everyone kind of knew the outcome of this one. Mattias put his squad on his back with 29 points on 9-14 shooting, not to mention being 11-18 from the line. Sami Butt continues to show out with 15 points on 5-9 shooting. 
Week 4 3-1 2

46 points. The most in Central MBs short history. Mattias is easily having a historical season, and it looks like nothings going to stop him. Sami Butt (15pts, 10asts) finally showing his 3s, not to mention being a great day with his assists. No one has an answer for these boys, and I doubt anyone will going forward. 
Week 3 2-1 4

This Ramla team is really playing out of its mind lately. Mattias (30pts, 7stl) is borderline unstoppable this season, averaging 32ppg in 3 games played. No ones had a single answer for him, and no one probably will. Deuce had 18 points and Sami had 12. If Sami ever decides to open up his 3 point bag up, I’m sure this team will be more unstoppable. 
Week 2 1-1 5

Ramla gave Isdud an absolute drubbing this morning, not to mention a nice bounce back win from last week. Mattias Arrindell is borderline unstoppable—finishing with 34 points on 13-23 shooting on the day. Omar Subhani is finally finding his groove too, having 18 points. If he can find a way to limit his inconsistencies, he could really become a problem for other teams. Sami Butt had 16 of his own points, not to mention 6 assists. This is a dangerous, dangerous team. 
Week 1 0-1 13

Mattias introduced himself to the league with a week-high 32 points. This game should’ve been theirs for the taking, Nazareth was missing Mana, but it looks like no one else on the team could step up besides Mohamed Kamel (12pts, 13reb). Sami Butt looks to be in his PG bag, tied with a week-high 7 assists.
