Regular Season Round 16: Taipans - Wildcats 92-66
Date: January 24, 2015
Not a big story in a game when 3rd ranked Perth Wildcats (13-9) were rolled over on the road by first ranked Cairns Taipans (17-6) 92-66 on Saturday. The hosts trailed by 2 points at the halftime before their 51-23 charge in the second half, which allowed them to win the game. Cairns Taipans dominated on the defensive end, holding Perth Wildcats to just 6 points in fourth quarter. They dominated down low during the game scoring 58 of its points in the paint compared to Perth Wildcats' 38. Cairns Taipans looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Cairns Taipans made 8 blocks. Worth to mention a great performance of American forward Torrey Craig (198-90, college: USC Upstate) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 21 points, 11 rebounds and 4 blocks (on 8-of-10 shooting from the field) and the other American import guard Scottie Wilbekin (188-92, college: Florida) who added 19 points and 10 assists during the contest. At the losing side the former international forward Shawn Redhage (203-81, college: Arizona St., agency: Warren Sports International) responded with 16 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists and American forward DeAndre Daniels (206-92, college: Connecticut) produced a double-double by scoring 14 points and 10 rebounds. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Cairns Taipans have an impressive five-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 17-6 record. Defending champion Perth Wildcats keep the third place with nine games lost. Cairns Taipans will face bottom-ranked Wollongong Hawks (#8) in Gwynneville in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Perth Wildcats will play at home against Kings (#6) and hope to win that game.
