Regular Season Round 1: Groningen - Weert 97-53

Date: October 6, 2012
Very expected game when bottom-ranked Weert (0-2) was smashed on the road by leader Groningen (1-0) 97-53. The game without a history. Groningen led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Weert to just 6 points in second quarter. Groningen dominated down low during the game scoring 68 of its points in the paint compared to Weert's 36. They outrebounded Weert 45-21 including a 37-17 advantage in defensive rebounds. Groningen players were unselfish on offense dishing 26 assists comparing to just 10 passes made by Weert's players. The former international center Thomas Koenis (206-89, agency: Court Side) fired 18 points and 8 rebounds (on 9-of-10 shooting from the field) for the winners. American guard Maurice Miller (187-88, college: Georgia Tech) chipped in 11 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists. Five Groningen players scored in double figures. Groningen's coach Hakim Salem felt very confident that he used 10 players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Power forward Joost Padberg (202-91) produced 8 points and 9 rebounds and American point guard Rahmon Fletcher (177-88, college: Wisc.-Green Bay, agency: Court Side) added 14 points respectively for lost side. Groningen keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 4 other teams. Weert at the other side still closes the standings with two games lost. Groningen's next round opponent will be Amsterdam (#7) on the road which should be theoretically another easy game. Weert will play against the league's leader Den Bosch.
