S15 - SGP Tournament Semi Final Update : Whampoa Allstars outlasts Lycans BB, Sessioes Doers fly high past Crystal Chambers Cavaliers.

Most favourite team, Lycans BB, probably still haven't found their luck to dethrone the defending Champions. Much worse when they saw Ooi Tse Cheng sidelined on 3rd quarter, and playmaker Michiyaki Tayama limped out as well on 4th quarter, leaving the second year freshman Chan Long Shi running the point.

Whampoa lead at the most of the game before Lycans quickly tied the game at 90-90 with 7minutes left in 4th. A 12-2 run capped by Victor Nolledo's pair of 3s put away Whampoa 102-92, never threathened, and closed the game with 112-102.

Still with the same casts running the show for Whampoa, Arthur Hottinger buried 30pts despite Lycans 3/2 defense, and six other player has double digit as well, but the most deadly was Falko Rogali 3point dagger near end of the game that put the exclamation point for Whampoa.

Lycans' Fang Shuang Xiang wasn't helping much as well. He was limited to 14 shot only, scored 20pts and committed 4 turnovers (2 on last 2 minutes). Juan Jose Castell led the team with 28 points.

Whampoa Allstars will face up with Sessioes Doers, who easily dispatch Crystal Chambers Cavaliers out of the court with 112-72. This will be the first appearance for team Sessioes Doers.

Final game will be at Thursday 3 March 2011 7pm.

Already losing a key player before this match, even 2 more was down at the game .. sigh.. tanked whole league games and i'm at the bottom of standings now...

S15 - SGP Tournament - Final - Whampoa claimed their 2nd Champion feat, rallied to beat Sessioes Doers 109-101.

Perhaps this is what peoples called the true champion, as they will know something good will happen if you keep trying. And this is what the two Whampoa veteran (Arthur Hottinger & David Hurtado) are thinking. Strong perimeter defense by Sessioes Doers forced both players to combine 6-23 from 3point area. But when trailed 92-96 on last 3 minutes, Arthur Hottinger hit back to back triples and David provided some hustles play to bring Whampoa up to front 102-96. Sessioes Doers went cold, and at the end, freebies from Falko Rogali iced the victories for Whampoa 109-101. Hottinger led the team with 32pts 9rebs, Hurtado scored 27pts. Ng Chao Huat, the underrated PG, booked 12pts and 8asts.

Roberto Paz led Sessioes Doers with 21pts, Prized bigman Eike Balkhausen scored 20pts but only grabbed 5rebs, the same tactic was used by Whampoa to slowed down Fang Shuang Xiang when facing Lycans, Thannasis Zarzoupoulos and Fraziskus Detjen was working out well on boxing out the bigmans from getting 2nd chance points.

Despite losses, Session Doers has already reached the higher marks, by appearing on the Tournament Finals for the first time. Lim Wee Min and troops sure have a lot of homework to be done for next season preparaion, or maybe this season playoffs? We'll see...

Created history for SBBL by winning 3 times in a row for the cup!
Well considered kinda lucky eversince i sold my center at end of last season :x

It was a great match and was honoured that my players played with the likes of Fang Shuang Xiang and Eike Balkhausen.

Well i do see that SBBL is getting livelier and the competition is getting tougher, good luck next season, anybody can be a winner~

4 times i've won the cup... but my biggest headache is still during playoffs.. I only like won it twice or thrice :x

oh my bad, that's three peat !!
congrats sky ....

Congrat Sky, on the three peat! Amazing feat! Hopefully one day i can achieve that as well haha =P

SBBL at a glance...midway of Season 15...

Big 8
1. Shohoku Backers
Still steadily positioning themselves at #1 of Big 8 conference although there're major resurgence at big 8, heartbreaking loss to Whampoa on Tournament Quarter Final, and the departure of captain Ow Pin Keong and veteran Diego Batto. Newcomer Jason Peachey & Eldad Galam have no problem to blend in with the team that still anchored by their 1-2 punch Aniol Soler (24ppg 7asts) & Sertug Acay (15ppg 12rpg). And the presence of Cataldo Momente will keep reminding this team to work hard for an encore to league Final again.

2. The Donkeys
Donkey is back to SBBL this with trio of biggies, Iranian's Ahmed Ismail (12ppg 11reb 1.7bpg) and French veteran Damien Petitjean (17ppg 10rpb), and Josbutas Ciuchlatas (13ppg 14rpg 3apg). Surprisingly started the Season 15, before slowing down at this middle of season, but still staying put at 2nd positing 9-5 on Big 8, slightly below Shohoku Backers (10-4). But lacking of a guy running their point could hurt Donkeys to improve their record.

3. Singapore Showstoppers
Best offensive team in SBBL. Lead by Edmundo Cabral (23ppg, 4apg, 5rpg), Émilien Montiel (18ppg 4apg) and Alfredo Coutinho (18ppg), the Showstoppers are clinging at 3rd spot on Big 8 conference. They are also improving their bigman position by acquiring a skillful bigman Pedro Pineda (12ppg, 10pg 4apg).

4. Sessioes Doers
Team with plenty of promising talents and handful of bench players. Led by sharpshooter Ricardo Paz (25ppg), NT performers like Eike Balkhausen (11ppg, 13rpg, 3apg) and Phil Hanson (18ppg, 14rpg). Nederlands Cees Jan Hagebeek is running the point, averaging a modest 8ppg and 8apg. And SD's bench players consist of Mah Shun Kwang (25mpg, 14ppg), veteran Raymond Starre (5ppg, 4rpg - see his rating), ex U21 Lim Wee Min (20mpg, 11ppg) and Slovensko Sensation František Šarvan (6ppg 3rpg). This season Tournament, SD's achieved their highest mark by reaching the Grand Final to fight Whampoa All-Stars, and almost pulled of a biggest upset of the Final.

5. Eric United
Defending Champion 3 seasons ago, still on their way revamping their roster, which is the reason they are still on mediocre record of 7-7. Led by their two longtime tenure players, Milan Vukic (15ppg, 11rpg) and Alfredo Montecucco (19ppg 6apg 5rpg). Fu Erqiang (18ppg 6apg 5rpg), Sebastião Fabião (16ppg) and Brieuc Duvivier (14ppg) are prominent wing players that always thrives in running game. But with the emergence of Singapore Showstopper and Sessioes Doers will make difficult for Eric United to crack playoff position. Plus, the Whampoa All-Star is wanting one spot as well.

6. Whampoa All-Stars
Solid contender even without Karoly "the Juggernaut" Raffay. This season Whampoa is expected to take a step back, but unexpectedly stormed steadily, scored a three peat for their Tournament Championship, beating Shohoku Backers, Lycans BB, and Sessioes Doers. Duo Clutch Veteran, Arthur Hottinger (26ppg) & David Hurtado (19ppg) won't be missed out for each victories that really count. NT player Ng Chao Huat keeps maturing (16ppg 8apg), probably the finest SGP PG, and hist mentor, Falko Rogali (12ppg 8apg) is covering him from behind the bench. New acquisition, Fraziskus Detjen (11ppg 14rpg), proved clucth as well as his success on slowing down biggies like Fang Shuang Xiang & Eike Balkhausen. Whampoa keep solidfying their game recently by beating SBBL hottest team Pekanbaru Jaguars 103-91 at Jaguars' home. Jaguars Petrus Alexandersson, SBBL no.1 rebounder, was held to 10rebounds, his lowest this season.

7. Xavis
Used to be top 4 at big 8 conference, but still haven't had improvement this season. Led by their bigman Hugo Pečovnik (18ppg 11rpg) and Pravdomil Mlýnek (13ppg 14rpg). Julian Anas was out of shape this season, avg only 15ppg, 5 less than last season 20ppg. Weak perimeter defense is the biggest achiless heel for Xavis. Could be threatened to slip down to Div II due to tight competition on Big 8 conference.

8. Lycans BB
Once the hottest team in league SBBL, but hitting some bad luck on this year. Lost 3 key players when they're facing Whampoa All-Stars, especially veteran Tan Yau Chang who seems fading this season. Fang Shuang Xiang (16ppg 14rpg) and Bolivian Sniper Juan Jose Castell (21ppg 4apg 5rpg) still led the team, and some role players like Ooi Tse Cheng (14ppg) and Michiyaki Tayama (11ppg, 5apg 4rpg). New veteran acquisition Enzo Paolo Gilotti (12ppg 9rpg) is to replace Mao Mingfeng and Dimitris Kavourakis, which just been sold away by the team. Lycans now is sitting on big 8 worst with 5-9 as expenses of their tournament commitment, but expected to climb back to the contention.
