Regular Season Round 7: Buducnost - Maccabi T-A 69-81
Date: November 12, 2011
There was no surprise when 5th ranked Montenegrin Buducnost (4-3) lost to leader Israeli Maccabi T-A (6-0) in Podgorica 69-81 on Saturday. The guests trailed by 1 point after first quarter, but they stormed back to get the 1-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 81-69. Worth to mention a great performance of American power forward Shawn James (208-83, college: Northeastern, agency: Z.A.G. - Law Offices) who helped to win the game recording 15 points and 8 rebounds. His fellow American import point guard Jordan Farmar (188-86, college: UCLA) contributed with 14 points for the winners. Forward Nikola Vucevic (208-90, college: USC) answered with 13 points and 7 rebounds and Serbian forward Cedomir Vitkovac (201-82, agency: Beo Basket) added 14 points and 7 rebounds in the effort for Buducnost. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Maccabi T-A have a solid series of four victories in a row. Defending Israeli champion moved-up to second place. Defending Montenegrin champion Buducnost dropped to the sixth position with three games lost. Maccabi T-A will face league's leader Union Olimpija in Ljubljana in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Buducnost will play at home against Cibona (#5) in Zagreb and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
