Regular Season Round 1: Gotha - Leipzig 88-84

Date: September 29, 2012
Everything could happen at the game between two tied teams. Both leader Oettinger Rockets Gotha and bottom-ranked USC Leipzig had identical 0-0 record. This time Oettinger Rockets Gotha used a home court advantage and beat the opponent from Leipzig 88-84 on Saturday night. However just four-point win is not that big difference and the fans of host team counted on more convincing victory. It was a key game for the top position in the league. The hosts were tied at the half but managed to speed up in last two quarters eventually winning the game. American guard Ahmad Smith (194-84, college: St.Bonaventure) fired 7 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists for the winners. Guard Jan Lipke (193-83, agency: Court Side) chipped in 20 points. Forward Walter Simon (202-89, college: Cumberland) produced 21 points (made all of his eleven free throws !!!) and American center Chris Gadley (207-87, college: Canisius) added 13 points and 8 rebounds (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) respectively for lost side. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Oettinger Rockets Gotha (1-0) keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 7 other teams. USC Leipzig at the other side, also newcomer in the league, still closes the standings with one game lost. Oettinger Rockets Gotha will face Finke Baskets (#11) in Paderborn in the next round and are hoping to win another game. USC Leipzig will play at home against Ehingen/Urspringschule in Allmendingen.
