Regular Season Round 50: Toyama Grouses - Gunma 91-69
Date: March 30, 2014
Very expected game when 9th ranked Gunma (13-31) was smashed on the road by second ranked Toyama Grouses (35-10) 91-69 on Sunday. The hosts trailed by 12 points after first quarter, but they stormed back and won the game by 22 points. Toyama Grouses dominated down low during the game scoring 60 of its points in the paint compared to Gunma's 34. They outrebounded Gunma 48-28 including a 34-17 advantage in defensive rebounds. Joho Masashi (183-82) orchestrated the victory with a double-double by scoring 26 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists. American forward Ira Brown (193-82, college: Gonzaga, agency: Norton Sports Management) contributed with a double-double by scoring 13 points, 15 rebounds and 6 assists for the winners. Toyama Grouses' coach Bob Nash felt very confident that he used entire bench which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games.

Law) replied with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 11 rebounds and his fellow American import forward Carlos Dixon (201-81, college: Virginia Tech) added 18 points and 5 rebounds in the effort for Gunma.
