With 1/2 shots by Marcus Kin 1.5’’ before the end of the race in the closed Saint Thomas and starring Alexander Nikolaides, he won it (65–64) and took his second home victory in the Greek Basketball League. The match for the 15th game of the regular season of the Greek Basketball League had many changes in the score and kept in… red the agony until the end, with Maroussi finally getting the precious victory over Lavrio. ADVERSE Top for the winners, who went up to 5-10, was Alexander Nikolaides who scored 15 points, while for the guests, who fell to 7-8, it was not enough the 17 points of Kanadi. The dynamic start of Panionios, when leading 3-14 in 5′ and 14-21 in 10′, was not enough for the “blue-reds”, who “stuck” to the opposing defense in the second quarter, were limited to 12 points and took the way to the locker room at -2 (35-33 in 20′). With the two teams going hand in hand to the second half, Maroussi showed sealing the win in 38–1, when securing a 5 point difference (64–59). However, Kanadi with a personal streak of 5-0, shaped 64–64 at 9.4–1 for the finish, turning the game into a thriller. CORVERSE Kalamanis’ fatal foul to Keen, however, at 1.5–1 before the finale sent the American to the charity line, where with 1/2 shots he shaped the final 65–64. The tens : 14-21, 35-33, 49-51, 65-64. Reynolds 5 (1), Friedrichson 13 (3), Kin 12 (1), Lanzewein 5, Manjukas 5 (1), Nikolaides 15 (3), Harel, Giannopoulos 8 (2), Tanoulis 2, Van Vlit.
