Regular Season Round 22: Aalstar - Gent Dragons 91-76
Date: March 5, 2011
No shocking result in a game when second ranked Okapi Aalstar (15-5) beat at home bottom-ranked Optima Gent (2-17) 91-76 on Saturday. The game was mostly controlled by Okapi Aalstar. Optima Gent managed to win third quarter 26-19. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. The game was decided in the last minutes when Okapi Aalstar won last quarter 26-13. They dominated down low during the game scoring 70 of its points in the paint compared to Optima Gent's 40. American-Lithuanian power forward Christopher Young (206-79, college: Michigan, agency: Court Side) notched 31 points and 5 rebounds (on 11-of-12 shooting from the field) to lead the effort and American swingman Anthony Hilliard (193-86, college: Elizabeth City) supported him with 16 points and 12 rebounds. Even 14 points and 9 rebounds (perfect from the field making all six shots) by French forward Luc Louves (207-89, agency: Court Side) did not help to save the game for Optima Gent. American swingman Adam Hall (196-80, college: Virginia) added 13 points and 5 rebounds for lost side. Both coaches used bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Okapi Aalstar maintains second position with 15-5 record behind leader Charleroi. Optima Gent lost thirteenth consecutive game. They stay at the bottom place with 17 games lost. Okapi Aalstar will meet league's leader Spirou Charleroi on the road in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Optima Gent will play against Belgacom Liege (#7) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
