Regular Season Round 14: Poitiers - Le Mans 69-71

Date: December 28, 2012
Important game to mention about took place in Poitiers. Sixth ranked Le Mans (9-5) saved a 2-point victory on the road edging 14th ranked Poitiers (5-9) 71-69 on Friday evening. Guest team only slightly avoided a big embarassment. Poitiers was ahead by 7 points at the halftime before a 37-28 second half run of Le Mans. They made 21-of-24 charity shots (87.5 percent) during the game. Brazilian power forward Joao Paulo Batista (207-81, college: Gonzaga) notched 14 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists to lead the effort and international forward Charles Kahudi (197-86, agency: Beo Basket) supported him with 13 points. Even a double-double of 12 points and 10 rebounds by American-Italian guard Anthony Dobbins (194-81, college: Richmond) did not help to save the game for Poitiers. American guard Justin Gray (188-84, college: Wake Forest, agency: Higher Vision Sports) added 13 points for the hosts. Five Poitiers players scored in double figures. Le Mans keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 5 other teams. Poitiers lost fourth consecutive game. They keep the fourteenth place with nine games lost. They share the position with Le Havre. Le Mans will play against ASVEL Lyon-Villeurbanne Basket (#4) at home in the next round. Poitiers will play against Sluc Nancy (#9) and hopes to get back on the winning track.
