Regular Season Round 24: 36ers - Blaze 83-84
Date: March 17, 2012
Eighth-ranked Adelaide 36ers (8-18) gave a tough game to third ranked Gold Coast Blaze (16-11) in Findon on Saturday. The visitors from Broadbeach managed to secure only one-point victory 84-83. However their fans expected much easier game. Adelaide 36ers were trailing by 7 points at halftime but managed to get 6-point lead after three quarters before a 24-17 charge of Gold Coast Blaze, which allowed them to win the game. They dominated down low during the game scoring 68 of its points in the paint compared to Adelaide 36ers' 44. Worth to mention a great performance of American power forward Will Hudson (206-89, college: Oakland) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 20 points and 13 rebounds and international guard Adam Gibson (188-86) who added 12 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists during the contest. The best for the losing side was American forward Diamon Simpson (201-87, college: St.Mary's, CA) with a double-double by scoring 21 points and 11 rebounds and center Daniel Johnson (212-88, college: Pepperdine) scored 18 points. Five Adelaide 36ers players scored in double figures. Gold Coast Blaze maintains third position with 16-11 record having three points less than leader Breakers. Adelaide 36ers at the other side keep the eighth place with 18 games lost. Gold Coast Blaze are looking forward to face league's leader New Zealand Breakers in Auckland in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Adelaide 36ers will play on the road against Wollongong Hawks (#9) in Gwynneville and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
