Date: December 2, 2014
Round 4 in EuroChallenge means a new league leader. The biggest surprise took place in Tartu where host Estonian TU/Rock (3-1) beat league's leader Romanian CS Energia Rovinari Targu Jiu (2-2) 66-59 on Tuesday evening. It was a key game for the top position in Group B. The hosts trailed by 1 point after three quarters before their 23-15 charge, which allowed them to win the game. 25 personal fouls committed by CS Energia Rovinari Targu Jiu helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Forward Timo Eichfuss (200-88) fired 18 points and 8 rebounds for the winners. Gert Dorbek (193-85) chipped in 9 points and 5 rebounds. Montenegrin Nemanja Milosevic (204-87, college: W.Kentucky, agency: Interperformances) produced a double-double by scoring 18 points and 10 rebounds and American point guard Giordan Watson (178-85, college: Cent.Michigan) added 17 points and 4 assists respectively for lost side. CS Energia Rovinari Targu Jiu's coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. TU/Rock have a solid three-game winning streak. They keep a position of Group B leader. CS Energia Rovinari Targu Jiu at the other side dropped to the third place with two games lost. They share the position with Kormend. They were replaced at the leadership position by Enel Brindisi. Just two games before the end of Regular Season and it may be the most important game of the season next round when CS Energia Rovinari Targu Jiu faces strong Kormend trying to make it back to the top of the standings. TU/Rock will try to continue on its current victory against fourth ranked Lukoil Acad. in Sofia.
