Bigmen dominance present Lionheart Jaguar past Shwe Toe Ngal 80-68.

Probably the worst offensive performance by Lionheart Jaguar, until their bigmen and stingy defense saved their first National TV match.

Halim bin Mohd Noor & Oscar Durban power play brought Jaguar come back from six points deficit, to take the lead as much as 10 points with less than a minute to go. STN run out of time, and have to surrender at the lowest points scored of the season, 68-80.

Jaguar were hesitant at 1st half. Game play didn't flow as usual, even Durban himself took a lot of bad shots. Game score kept changing like a seesaw until 3rd quarter until Halim Mohd Noor stepped up. His aggresive play was making the Stadium crowds exploded, thus increased defense intensity of his teammate.

At the 4th, Jaguar veteran PG Mirko Martis noticed the fatigue of STN bigmen Manuel Irarrázaval. And then Martis kept feedin Durban inside, and finally made Irarrázaval to get his sixth foul. Han Aik Chin replaced his position and not much a help on the position.

Halim Mohd Noor scored season high 32pts 22rebs, followed by Oscar Durban 17pts, 16rebs, 3asts and 3blks. Martis has 8 assists, and FPW has a mediocre 5 pts, 5 rebs, 5 assits and 6 steals. STN Rodic led their team with 22pts.

Haiz, forget to set lineup that cause me a game. Haha

oh i thought you still can't let 1-3-1 go...

pls continue to forget =P

Hehe, nice report..
With you around, I don't need to scout opponent.. just read your report can already ;)

I will consider next season..

The current result is the worst record for STN in SBBL.

Nikolovski, Singapore FC stingy defense hold down Compassvale United 74-70.

Even though ugly win, but Singapore FC did it with classy way.

With time ticking down, and both teams fighting hard, and when Perry Puesta was outdueled by Yeo Tse Hui, Leontie Nikolovski took over the job. Nikolovski went to score 10 of his 14points in the 4th, include two 3 pointers, to save the night for Singapore FC over Compassvale by four points.

Singapore FC led by two after first quarter, but went cold at second quarter, and Compasvale took five points lead after halftime. Perry Puesta stabilize the score to one point deficit at 3rd, before going cold at 4th quarter and Compassvale's Yeo Tse Hui become aggresive. Audi* finally sent Kang Puay Ying to slow him down, and it worked as YTH missed a crucial three pointer that could bring CPU for one point lead.

With this victory, Singapore FC stand tall leading on Big 8 conference, even without key players Vrisan Sharma and Sun Qingxian. Injury bug doesn't affect the team spirit and passion, which enabled them to play hard defense and win games.

Meanwhile on National Indoor Stadium, Lionheart Jaguar have to sweat a lot to calm NANDA's wrath at 4th quarter, and hold on with 93-83 victory. NANDA were on full power, shocked the crowd by pumping Lionheart Jaguar 17-2 run on the first quarter, before Lionheart Jaguar hobbling back to lead the score at 35-34. The start of 4th quarter much looked like a breeze when Mirko Martis switches to playmaker mode and dishes easy baskets for Jaguars, before NANDA made their final push behind SGP NT player Chung Wen Xin and Lin Cheng Qian. The most dangerous part was when Tone Galov repeatedly outhustled Mirko Martis for offensive rebounds and second chance points. NANDA even took the lead 82-81, after Chung Wen Xin thrashes Thomas Mayriedl for foul and one. But, Mirko Martiz calmly sank a jumper on the next possession, and Franciscze Sklorz buried a three from the right wing. Finally NANDA have to give away fouls, and weren't able to catch up.

Sklorz scored 31pts. Oscar Durban netted 13 points and season high 27 rebounds. Martiz has 16pts and 7assists. NANDA were led by their duo Chung Wen Xin and Lin Cheng Qian with 27pts.

SG Young Guns won two straight with Tsartsaris on the lineup, beat Shohoku Backers 108-95

The sky is the limit, when your team has a player who likes to share the wealth.

Foong Long Meng scored season high 38 points and 11 rebounds to power up SG Young Guns for their second straight victory over Shohoku Backers. The Young Guns got the early game going, displayed a tremendous ball moving ability with Marek Bujak and Lampros Tsartsaris controls the offense. No one from Backers were able to follow Tsartsaris quickness, resulted a lot of basket drive by the 24yo SF. As the Backers shouted for double team, Foong Long Meng got the best share of assists, enabled him to rack for 18/29 FG. Marek Bujak scored 18pts and 11assists. Tsartsaris had all around games 8 points 8 assist and six rebounds. Backers' Francho Labrue Oneray led scorer with 27pts.

Meanwhile at NANDA homebase, Oronzo Radice dropped 41pts as New BKT Kings stole a win from hometeam NANDA 105-93. The victory also powered by the Scotland delight' Ranald Preston, who has 13 assists. Ahmad Islam scored 12 pts and 15 rebs, and Sapian bin Bidi 10pts 8rebs and 4asts. The last two players might be getting lesser playing time, due to their religion fasting month.

Li Cheng Chian led NANDA with team high 38pts.

Hmm.. Ben's arrival really have big impact ;)
