(V-Rad)-German Basketball League (BBL): 3.27 - 3.28.2010
Round 29 of the German League Regular Season came to a close this past weekend. EWE Baskets Oldenburg returned home after a stretch of road games & locked up the LTi 46ers in route to a 58-48 victory on March 27th. In a familiar theme, former Buckeye Je'Kel Foster led EWE with 12 points & 7 rebounds. The champs (21-6..running it!) are currently on a 5 game winning streak, and are now at the top of the Bundesliga standings over Alba Berlin. Their next game is against the Artland Dragons on April 4th.
Center Velimir Radinovic had his best game of the season so far over the weekend. His 14 points & 6 rebounds led Mitteldeutscher BC (MBC for short) past Ludwigsburg in a balanced 82-59 victory on the 28th. V-Rad, now a six year veteran of pro basketball, left Greece (second division) last off-season. He waited to sign for the 2009/2010 season, and ended up in a better situation with MBC (15-14) of Germany's top league. Velimir is now 5 games into his return to the court, and looks to be back on track after this recent performance.
Paderborn Baskets fell to Ratiopharm in a tough 87-86 loss. Matt Terwilliger contributed 8 points & 2 boards in 20 minutes of action.
-Clips of the German League are scarce on the North American side unless some BBL fans happen to post videos on youtube or something. The German sport sites show highlights, but they restrict their video content from folks of this region for some reason. If we click a highlight it will be blocked. It is almost as if they know that some would like to view & use their clips :)
