Regular Season Round 24: KTP - Pyrinto 96-83
Date: January 8, 2012
Very important is a road loss of third ranked Tampereen Pyrinto (13-8) against tenth ranked KTP-Basket (8-14) on Sunday night. Visiting Tampereen Pyrinto was defeated by KTP-Basket in Kotka 96-83. It was a very close game until the last quarter, when KTP-Basket's pressure prevailed and they won that period 30-18 extending their advantage to 13 points. The winners were led by American swingman Tony Crocker (201-87, college: Oklahoma) who scored that evening 21 points and 5 rebounds and the other American import forward Tim Blue (205-84, college: Middle Tenn.St.) supported him with 20 points and 5 rebounds. Even 21 points and 5 assists by American forward Damon Williams (201-73, college: Colorado St.-Pueblo) did not help to save the game for Tampereen Pyrinto. The former international power forward Antti Nikkila (210-78, college: Valparaiso) added 14 points and 9 rebounds. Both teams had five players each who scored in double figures. KTP-Basket have a solid four-game winning streak. They moved-up to ninth place, which they share with Korihait. Defending champion Tampereen Pyrinto dropped to the fourth position with eight games lost. KTP-Basket will play against higher ranked Kauhajoen Karhu (#3) in Kauhajoki in the next round and they do not belong to the favorites in that game. Tampereen Pyrinto will play at home against the league's second-placed Loimaan Korikonkarit where they are definitely not considered as a favorite in this game either.
