Date: March 16, 2013
Fifth-ranked Panasonic Trians (21-19) used its home court advantage to challenge first ranked Aishin Sea Horses (32-8) in Osaka on Saturday. The visitors from Kariya managed to secure only three-point victory 72-69. However their fans expected much easier game. The guests were tied at the half but managed to speed up in last two quarters eventually winning the game. The former international power forward J.R. Sakuragi (206-76, college: UCLA) orchestrated the victory with a double-double by scoring 12 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists. Jamaican center Kevin Young (206-84, college: Missouri) contributed with a double-double by scoring 10 points and 14 rebounds for the winners. American power forward Jameel Watkins (211-77, college: Georgetown) replied with a double-double by scoring 18 points and 13 rebounds and the former international point guard Hiroyuki Kinoshita (178-80) added 13 points and 6 assists in the effort for Panasonic Trians. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Panasonic Trians' coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Aishin Sea Horses have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 32-8 record. Panasonic Trians at the other side keep the fifth place with 19 games lost. Aishin Sea Horses are looking forward to face Mitsubishi Dolphins (#6) in Nagoya in the next round where they are favorite. Panasonic Trians will play on the road against Tochigi Brex and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
