For a long time nothing worked at all: Oldenburg didn’t score, Göttingen managed one turnover after another.
The guests got themselves as the first team, the next turnover on the pointguard position, this time through fault of Robinson Jr., led to 10:18 (8th). After all, it was with Dawkins one of the best BGers who blew a triple to catch up – incomparable how high he jumps off when throwing, almost like a rubber ball.
Over the quarter break (18:18), the BG landed a 12-0 run to 22:18 lead, but in line with the nervous game, it went in the other direction: After several unsuccessful timeouts, the violets were at the end of the second quarter with 31:42 behind, and that only thanks to a monster dunks from Omuvwie shortly before the siren.
Oldenburg used the third quarter to impressively demonstrate its offensive strength, and before the final round the guests led at 67:47 with 20 points. Led by the playful Robinson jr. the violets came closer to eleven points, but in the end Oldenburg was too stable to let the victory be taken out of their hands again. Two technical fouls against the massively complaining Moors led to the exclusion of the BG head coach. – Best thrower BG: Odiase (22), Dawkins, Robinson jr. (beide 13), Gutierrez (10).

Roel Moors (Head Coach BG Göttingen): “It was another difficult game for us. We didn’t start well and had too many ball losses. The quality difference between the two teams was great. If you look at the passing skills and the odds of three you can see the big difference. I saw a good reaction in the second half. But if we want to win games we have to start better. We didn’t do that again today. ”When asked about his two technical fouls in a row, he said:“ I reacted to the situation, it was a clear foul for me! ” All in all, his team made too many simple mistakes.
Mladen Drijencic (Head Coach EWE Baskets Oldenburg): “It was the tough game I expected against an aggressive, fast team. It was also difficult for us after the great win against Bayern Munich. My concern was the emotional level. It was nice to see that the guys had enough emotion and energy. We only allowed 47 points in the first three quarters. Then you can praise the guys and forget the last quarter. We played with a very large rotation because the game against Bayern Munich took a lot of strength. In three days we have a very long journey ahead of us, so it was important to distribute the playing time. ”When asked about the zero points achieved by Rickey Paulding, whose playing time was only 15:37 minutes, he said:” Paulding was Top scorer against Munich, who has a good defense. That was very strenuous, especially since he had already scored 36 points against Crailsheim. It was agreed with Paulding that we should try to spare him a little. “
