Regular Season Round 11: Niigata Albirex - Saitama Bron. 79-55
Date: November 11, 2012
Not a big story in a game when 10th ranked Saitama Broncos (1-7) were outscored on the road by fourth ranked Niigata Albirex (7-3) 79-55 on Sunday. The game was mostly controlled by Niigata Albirex. Saitama Broncos was better in second period 21-19. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Saitama Broncos to just 6 points in first quarter. Niigata Albirex made 20-of-26 free shots (76.9 percent) during the game. They outrebounded Saitama Broncos 49-35 including a 35-23 advantage in defensive rebounds. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Niigata Albirex made 8 blocks. American center Chris Holm (212-84, college: Vermont, agency: Top Notch Sports) orchestrated the victory with a double-double by scoring 13 points and 11 rebounds. His fellow American import guard Nile Murry (193-83, college: TCU) contributed with 11 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners. Four Niigata Albirex players scored in double figures. Coach Matt Garrison's team controlled all game and the coach could let to play 11 players saving starting five for next games. American forward Dameion Baker (192-78, college: Mount Olive) answered with a double-double by scoring 17 points and 10 rebounds and guard Yuki Kitamuki (184-85) added 14 points in the effort for Saitama Broncos. The victory was the seventh consecutive win for Niigata Albirex. They moved-up to third place, which they share with Shimane SM. Saitama Broncos lost their fifth game in a row. They keep the tenth position with seven games lost. Niigata Albirex will face Chiba Jets (#8) on the road in the next round which should be theoretically another easy game. Saitama Broncos will play against the league's second-placed Toyama Grouses.
