Regular Season Round 1: Mersin - Tofas 61-72

Date: October 15, 2011
Everything could happen in Akdeniz at the game between two tied teams. Both leader Tofas and bottom-ranked Mersin had identical 0-0 record. But Mersin was not able to use a home court advantage and was defeated by the opponent from Bursa 72-61 on Saturday night. It was a key game for the top position in the league. The game was mostly controlled by Tofas. Mersin was better in third quarter 19-15. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They made 17-of-22 free shots (77.3 percent) during the game. Tofas looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists comparing to just 5 passes made by Mersin's players. Forward Inanc Koc (202-79) fired 13 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists for the winners. American forward Bradley Buckman (203-84, college: Texas) chipped in 17 points and 7 rebounds. American guard Anthony Grundy (189-79, college: N.Carolina St., agency: Strategic Sports) produced 19 points and the other American import swingman Vincent Grier (195-83, college: Minnesota, agency: SportsTalent) added 8 points and 7 rebounds respectively for lost side. Tofas (1-0) keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 7 other teams. Loser Mersin still closes the standings with one game lost. Tofas will face Erdemir (#13) at home in the next round which should be an easy win for them. Mersin will play against Trabzonspor (#16).
