Regular Season Round 17: Gunma - Akita NH 75-84
Date: November 29, 2014
Not a big story in a game when 11th ranked Gunma (2-13) was defeated at home by second ranked Akita Happinets (13-4) 84-75 on Saturday. The guests were tied at the half but managed to speed up in last two quarters eventually winning the game. Akita Happinets made 19-of-25 free shots (76.0 percent) during the game. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Akita Happinets made 7 blocks. The best player for the winners was guard Shigehiro Taguchi (184-90) who scored 21 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line). American swingman Richard Roby (198-85) chipped in 16 points and 8 rebounds. American forward Carlos Dixon (201-81, college: Virginia Tech) produced 12 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists and the other American import swingman Marcus Morrison (198-84, college: Middle Tenn.St.) added 16 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists respectively for the hosts. Five Akita Happinets and four Gunma players scored in double figures. Akita Happinets maintains second place with 13-4 record having just three points less than leader Kyoto Hannar., which they share with Toyama Grouses. Loser Gunma keeps the eleventh position with 13 games lost. Akita Happinets will have a break next round. Gunma will play again at home against the league's second-placed Akita Happinets (#2) and hope to win that game.
