Need to correct Boopie’s stats (had 18 points plus a couple of blanks instead of numbers) as well as filling in some other blanks - really enjoy reviewing the stats that you put together after each game - thank you

[Charleston Pony]

A lot of time goes into putting all those stats together. Much appreciated, indeed. When B.J. drained a three from the corner and joined the 4 other starters in double figures, I wondered whether we've had a game this season when all 5 starters scored in double figures but it would take more time than I care to invest to make that determination.
