Referee explains the situation live on TV!
The technical downtime lasts and lasts. Longer and longer. The referee indicates that the players should warm up to minimize the risk of injury as soon as the game can resume.
In the hall, the hall spokesman announced: “A replacement is being arranged!” A computer at the scoreboard appears to have caught itself. Therefore the 24 second clock does not work.

Suddenly hectic hustle and bustle. A mobile replacement watch is driven into the hall. It’s running – but it still doesn’t go any further! Lots of people all working around the timekeeper’s table.
Referee Lottermoser comes to the sidelines to Dyn commentator Fabrice Kao and explains live on TV: “Shot clock is out, both main displays are out. We are now waiting for the replacement system to be installed and working.”
Question from Kao: “You don’t have a time forecast?” Lottermoser answers as he walks away: “No, unfortunately not.”

At 7:41 p.m. it finally continues. After almost 28 minutes of interruption. It later turns out that the connection between the shot clock and remote control suddenly stopped working and caused chaos.
The hosts went into the half-time break with a score of 39:56. Göttingen’s Mathis Mönnighoff at Dyn: “We started badly. We did what we didn’t want to do: we let Berlin run its course. We fought back somewhat okay, but we still have to do something. Now we have to step it up a notch.”
Emotional time out with the score at 39:63. Göttingen coach Olivier Foucart said to his players: “The people are not here because they want to see you win in every game. They’re here because they want to see you fight!”
Even before the game was interrupted, there were unusual scenes: Karlis Silins made it 14:16 from Göttingen’s perspective after five minutes and 58 seconds of play. And after that nothing happens to the hosts for a long time! Alba goes on an incredible 23-0 run. The next BG points are only awarded after one minute and three seconds in the second quarter.
Alba’s Tim Schneider after the game at Dyn: “We did a good job in defense. We are still in the discovery phase and have to come together as a team. We have to continue to stick to our rhythm.”
