Regular Season Round 2: Rustavi - Kutaisi 61-98

Date: October 21, 2011
There was no surprise in Rustavi where bottom-ranked Energy Invest (0-2) was crushed by top-ranked Kutaisi (2-0) 98-61. The game without a history. Kutaisi led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Energy Invest's 32. Kutaisi forced 21 Energy Invest turnovers. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 36 assists comparing to just 10 passes made by Energy Invest's players. 27 personal fouls committed by Energy Invest helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Naturalized Russian guard Teymuraz Babunashvili (185-90) notched 17 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists to lead the effort and center Richard Matiashvili (209-89) supported him with 20 points and 4 assists (on 8-of-9 shooting from the field). Kutaisi's coach Malkhaz Kokhreidze felt very confident that he used entire bench and allowed the starting five to get some rest. Even 23 points and 9 rebounds by guard Luka Khmelidze (195-92) did not help to save the game for Energy Invest. Forward Gela Kopaliani (193-90) added 7 points and 6 rebounds for the hosts. Kutaisi maintains first position with 2-0 record, which they share with 3 other teams. Energy Invest at the other side still closes the standings with two games lost. Kutaisi's next round opponent will be Armia (#5) in Tbilisi. Energy Invest will play on the road against STU in Tbilisi and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
