In what was meant to be a good close game didnt finish how it was planned to. Both teams started fast hitting there first two shots each. BSB plan to play a 1-3-1 zone to beat the run and gun play style of the Wildcats didnt work out with Wildcats changing tactics early and playing a dominantly big man game with nearly all there points scored inside. Even with the Wildcats starting guard having a shocking shooting performance they were able to pull off a 90 to 78 victory after a massive third were they outscored BSB 27-13 which end up being the deciding factor. In what will be mostly likely there ownly meeting of this year it turned out to be a let down. Hopefully both teams will face each other next season or in a few seasons time when there both in the ABBL.
The top players of the Game
3.
Luis Andres
The Big PF of Wildcats had a blinder of a game getting a double double in what was a dominating performance against the much weaker bigmen of BSB. He managed to pull down 13 rebs and score 15 points on 7/8 shots and for a big man he can pass the ball racking up 5 assists. He would of made BSB looking even worse if it wasnt for fouling out.

Dalibor Kostrevc
The SG of BSB was the games highest scorer many believe that it should of been crowd favourite Alvin Turnbull who should of ending up taking the most shots for BSB but it wasnt to be this game with Alvin being kept quite Dalibor stepped up scoring 25 points off a shocking shooting performance 11-25 he will be needing some JS training ;) but also managed 5 assists and 5 rebounds and a massive 4 steals all of which came in the 4th quarter fight back

Ignacio Poyatos
Was by far the most influential bench player in 14 mins of playing time he managed to rack up 13 rebounds and 8 points and was definatly the difference between the Wildcats winning or losing.
Special Mentions
Miguel Jardim
In what he has already announced as last season at the club Miguel has shown why he is a valued member and why his teamates want to keep him around next season. he was the spark in the last quarter that gave the struggling bsb side some up and go which made them fight back and come within striking distance late in the game. 15pts 8rbs 4blocks 1steal
Game to Forget
Jayson Gower
What a performance for a guard who definatly needs to learn to pass ;) and shoot he by far was the worse play on the field missing 17 shots his only scoring basket came from 2 free throws. He will be hoping to have a better game next week
