LG Sakers of Korea's KBL routed Taiwan NT 94-65 in the opening night of the inaugural APB (Asian Professional Basketball) tournament Friday while Perth Wildcats came up with an easy 81-70 win over Niigata Albirex of Japan's BJ League.
Taiwan NT entered the game without Tsun Wen-din, who is in Las Vegas for Pete Newell Big Man Camp and will not join the team before Aug. 14, and Chen Chih-chung, who is injured.
But it's hard to believe the home team could only hang with the Koreans for only a quarter. Led by Pervis Pasco, who had 15 points and 12 boards in the game, LG pulled away in the second quarter and never looked back.
Veteran Hoon Joo-yup had 13 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists for Sakers, which outrebounded Taiwan 40-22 and was 13 for 26 from threes.
Tien Lei had 23 points and 7 boards before fouling out. Taiwan NT once again relied heavily on three-pointers but shot only 10 for 42.
Paul Rogers had 20 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists to pace the Wiladcats.

oh. can you tell me a link where i can find the coverage for this league? I like to see all the game results as well as the boxscores.
ReplyDeleteIt may be hard to believe but you can't find game results and boxscores on APB's official web site (http://www.webs-tv.net/apb). BTW this is not a league. It's a 9-day tournament.
ReplyDeletewow, that's not good for an official site. but i believe you watch the games? I need some news and boxscores. I hope you have them. You're the only hope.
