IBL Round 14 of Regular Season

Here is the last round review presented by ESL.

The game in Sakti was quite interesting. Fifth ranked Satria Muda (6-4) played at the court of 7th ranked Bima Perkasa (3-7). Satria Muda defeated Bima Perkasa 73-57 on Saturday. American guard Gary Jacobs (188-92, college: Cent.Washington) had a double-double by scoring 24 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists to lead the charge for the winners and the former international Juan Kokodiputra (194-95) chipped in 13 points during the contest. Mali-American forward Mamadou Diakite (196-93, college: Immaculata) responded with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 13 rebounds. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Satria Muda moved-up to fourth place, which they share with Louvre S. Bima Perkasa at the other side keeps the seventh position with seven games lost. Satria Muda is looking forward to face Prawira (#9) in Bandung in the next round where they are favorite. Bima Perkasa will have a break next round.

In the last game of round 14 bottom-ranked Hang Tuah lost to NSH on the opponent's court 77-84.
