Regular Season Round 38: Hitachi SR - Mitsubishi DD 79-67

Date: March 15, 2014
Very important is a road loss of third ranked Mitsubishi Dolphins (21-21) against fifth ranked Hitachi Sunrockers (17-25) on Saturday night. Visiting Mitsubishi Dolphins were defeated by Hitachi Sunrockers in Tokyo 79-67. The game was mostly controlled by Hitachi Sunrockers. Mitsubishi Dolphins was better in second period 23-21. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. The former international power forward Joji Takeuchi (207-85, agency: N.E.T.) had a double-double by scoring 23 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists to lead the charge for the winners and the former international guard Kenta Hirose (193-85) chipped in 20 points and 9 rebounds during the contest. Four Hitachi Sunrockers players scored in double figures. Senegalese-French forward Amath M'Baye (206-89, college: Oklahoma) responded with a double-double by scoring 29 points and 12 rebounds and forward Takayuki Kumagai (190-85) scored 13 points. Mitsubishi Dolphins' coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Hitachi Sunrockers have an impressive seven-game winning streak. They maintain fifth position with 17-25 record. Mitsubishi Dolphins at the other side keep the third place with 21 games lost. Hitachi Sunrockers will again play against higher ranked Mitsubishi Dolphins (#3) in Nagoya in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Mitsubishi Dolphins will have a break next round.
