Regular Season Round 46: Shinshu BW - Iwate Big Bulls 75-77
Date: March 22, 2015
Seventh-ranked Shinshu BW (18-24) used its home court advantage to challenge second ranked Iwate Big Bulls (35-9) in Nagano on Sunday. The visitors from Iwate managed to secure only two-point victory 77-75. However their fans expected much easier game. Shinshu BW was trailing by 6 points at halftime but managed to get 1-point lead after three quarters before a 21-18 charge of Iwate Big Bulls, which allowed them to win the game. American forward Lawrence Blackledge (206-86, college: Marquette) notched 21 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks to lead the effort and the other American import swingman Wayne Arnold (193-84, college: Tennessee St.) supported him with 18 points. Blackledge is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. Four Iwate Big Bulls players scored in double figures. Even a double-double of 23 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists by American forward DeVaughn Washington (202-89, college: Ohio) did not help to save the game for Shinshu BW. American-Somalian forward Mohamed Abukar (208-85, college: San Diego St., agency: Two Points) added 21 points and 5 rebounds for lost side. Shinshu BW's coach Ryuji Kawai tested ten players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Iwate Big Bulls keep a position of league leader. Shinshu BW lost third consecutive game. They keep the seventh place with 24 games lost. Iwate Big Bulls will meet at home Aomori Watts (#6) in the next round where they are favorite. Shinshu BW will play against the league's second-placed Akita Happinets and hope to secure a win.
