Bayern light? Doesn’t taste good! At least not the people of Munich. But Göttingen cannot use it…
Without world champion Andy Obst, without superstar Serge Ibaka and without captain Vladimir Lucic, Pablo Laso’s team goes into the Easycredit Basketball Bundesliga duel at the Fourteenth BG Göttingen. At times they are up to 14 points behind.

But in the end, the team around the German world champions Niels Giffey and Isaac Bonga turned the game in the last quarter in favor of the heavy favorites.
The scene of the game in the third quarter: After a pass from Gibson from Göttingen, the ball goes out of bounds, Bayern have possession. But the people of Göttingen protest. Munich’s Nick Weiler-Babb is said to have still been there.

Video evidence? No, referee Anne Panther doesn’t need that! She goes to the German national player and speaks to him personally in private. Ask him: “Were you still there?” Be honest …”
And who can lie to the referee?! Weiler-Babb can’t do it! He admits touching the ball. Very fair gesture!
Throw-in for Göttingen.

Bayern still comes close, reducing the deficit point by point in the last quarter. And Devon Booker makes the lead clear since the first quarter with a fantastic alley hoop in one minute 57 seconds. Göttingen finds no answer.
49 seconds before the end (71:74) a very important steal from Nick Weiler-Babb sealed the Göttingen defeat. That was probably basketball karma and thanks for his honesty in the third quarter…

Bayern plays things down and wins 77:71. Göttingen’s David DeJulius: “I am proud of our team. We can build on that. Bayern have a lot of talent, they were simply better in the end. If we play against Crailsheim next week, we have a very good chance.”
Devin Booker on Dyn: “It feels terrible. We were way too relaxed. But our defense was better in the second half. That was crucial.”
