    YoungStarz had talkDone shut down throughout the game, up to 3rd quarter the score was tied, thes the starz pull out by 10 until bodean start getting some stupid foul and free throws, the press was killing talk done. them barely won by 4 points altough they had the height and experienced players to their advantage.
