Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.
The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of Utrecht (5-6) on the court of top-ranked Noordkop on Saturday night. Visitors were rolled over by Noordkop 94-59. It ended at the same time the four-game winning streak of Utrecht. Undefeated Noordkop (6-0) have an impressive six-game winning streak. They maintain first position with a perfect record of 6 victories in a row which they share with defeated Utrecht. Utrecht at the other side still keeps top place with six games lost. Noordkop are looking forward to face Lokomotief (#4) in Rijswijk in the next round. Utrecht will play against River Trotters and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Sixth-ranked Leiden (1-5) gave a tough game to first ranked Utrecht (5-6). Utrecht managed to secure only two-point victory 85-83. However their fans expected much easier game. Utrecht have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 5-6 record. Leiden 2 at the other side dropped to the fifth place with five games lost. They share the position with Amsterdam and BAL Weert 2. Utrecht will play against River Trotters (#3) in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Leiden 2 will play against Amsterdam and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Very important is a road loss of third ranked De Groene (3-2) against fourth ranked GET United (4-2) on Saturday night. Visiting De Groene was crushed by GET United in 90-69. It was a key game for the top position in the league. GET United used an opportunity after Biks Shots lost their game and moved up joining them at the top position. Loser De Groene dropped to the second place with two games lost. They share the position with Uitsmijters and Triple Threat. GET United will meet league's leader Utrecht on the road in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week.
