Yulon closed out the year 2007 with its 10th straight win Sunday -- an 83-78 escape over Dacin. The victory did not come easily, however. Chen Chih-chun made two free-throws with 3.4 seconds remaining to ice the victory.
Chen Hsin-an scored 12 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter. Dacin, which entered the game without two core players Tien Lei and Wang Chih-chun, almost pulled off a shocker. It trailed by 11 midway through the 4th period but cut the deficit to one point, 79-78, after Su Yi-chieh's layup with 16 seconds left.
Taiwan Mobile point guard Wu Yong-jen also had 12 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter as TM handed dmedia its second defeat in as many nights. Dmedia, which surprised everyone with a 5-1 record, finished the week with a pair of losses -- a 73-67 loss to TM Sunday and an 84-74 loss to Taiwan Beer Saturday.
