Regular Season Round 6: Groningen - Leeuwarden 86-54

Date: October 28, 2014
The game in Groningen supposed to be also worth to mention about. 5th ranked Leeuwarden (2-4) played at the court of sixth ranked Groningen (2-3). Groningen smashed Leeuwarden 86-54. The game was mostly controlled by Groningen. Leeuwarden was better in fourth quarter 16-13. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Groningen dominated down low during the game scoring 44 of its points in the paint compared to Leeuwarden's 20. Groningen forced 19 Leeuwarden turnovers. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 21 assists. 26 personal fouls committed by Leeuwarden helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. The former international center Thomas Koenis (210-89, agency: Court Side) notched 9 points and 13 rebounds to lead the effort and Canadian power forward Ross Bekkering (203-87) supported him with 16 points and 5 rebounds. Even a double-double of 11 points and 13 rebounds by American power forward Ryan Watkins (206-91, college: Boise St.) did not help to save the game for Leeuwarden. His fellow American import guard Miles Jackson-Cartwright (190-92, college: Pennsylvania) added 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Defending champion moved-up to fifth place, which they share with Rotterdam. Leeuwarden lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the seventh position with four games lost. Groningen's next round opponent will be league's leader Leiden at home and it may be quite challenging game. Leeuwarden will play against Den Bosch (#3) and hope to win that game.
