Regular Season Round 1: Niigata Albirex - Shinshu BW 81-86

Date: October 9, 2011
The most crucial game of the last round was the first loss of undefeated Niigata Albirex (1-1) at the home court on Sunday night. Hosts were defeated by Shinshu BW (1-1) 86-81. It was a key game for the second position in the league. Niigata Albirex was tied after three quarters but could not keep up in the last quarter eventually losing the game. Shinshu BW forced 22 Niigata Albirex turnovers. 25 personal fouls committed by Niigata Albirex helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Worth to mention a great performance of American power forward Lee Roberts (201-87, college: Findlay, OH) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 24 points and 10 rebounds. Guard Takato Saito (181-85) contributed with 17 points and 6 assists for the winners. American power forward Chris Holm (212-84, college: Vermont) answered with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 18 rebounds and forward Kimitake Sato (186-84) added 18 points in the effort for Niigata Albirex. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Despite that victory Shinshu BW went down to second position due to points difference, which they share with 3 other teams including defeated Niigata Albirex. Shinshu BW will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Niigata Albirex will play at home against Toyama Grouses and is hoping to win this game.
