  Lucenec is the Champion 2005-2006!
E.S.O. Lucenec had the advantage of the home court and that gave them the necessary boost to beat MBK Handlova in the end, 66-61. They started the game with the same determination, Lucenec fighting hard to finally get the Title, and Handlova fighting just as hard to stay in the race for the Title. They finished the first quarter 14-14. Handlova got a better grip of the second quarter 10-14, and even in the third quarter after Lucenec outscored them 21-18, they were still leading. But Lucenec dominated the last quarter 21-15, and Handlova had no choice but to bow to the new Champion.

E.S.O. Lucenec was led to victory by: Josip Sarin (195-G-80) 17, Mirko Scekic (205-F/C-70) 16, Michal Tarabus (196-F-76) 10, Martin Sykora (190-G/F-81) 7, Patrick Melus (216-C-72, agency: Court Side) 6, Jozef Krajco (195-F-83) 6, and Igor Kovacevic (189-G-72) 4.

In a losing effort it scored for Handlova: Nenad Milosevic (188-G-83) 20, Milan Golian (207-C-74) 11, Peter Holubek (199-F-84) 8, Jaroslav Stefanik (193-F-76) 8, Nikola Manojlovic (207-C-79, agency: Players Group) 6, Marcel Madaj (200-F-78) 6, and Ivan Barisic (200-C) 2.
