What an incredible game and an unbelievable last minute. During the 3 first quarters We have dominated the game and we were leading by 9 at the start of the last quarter. Immediately Phoenix lost Isern in injury. The party was ready to start... or not.

The last quarter was a nightmare for us. From +9, it was -3 (74-71) at the start of this famous last minute. This the summary:

- 55 sec: Berte reduces the score => 74-73
- 33 sec: Offensive rebond for Vlajkovic
- 20 sec: 2 points + bonus for Liesens => 77-73
- 15 sec: 3FG for Lupinac => 77-76
- 13 sec: Foul of Vercaigne on Machado => Machado is injuried!
- 13 sec: 2/2 for de Troostembergh on FT => 79-76
- 09 sec: Lupinac misses a 3FG
- 07 sec: de Troostemberg misses his two FTs! => always 79-76
- 01 sec: Lupinac scores a 3FG => 79-79 and overtime!!!

The overtime was very easy to win; without Machado and Isern, Phoenix was unable to succeed one shot.

I can't explain my feeling after this game. When it was 77-73, I really thought it was over. I wasn't angry but sad because I saw the new BBBs go away. And so when Lupinac scored the 3FG at the last second, I didn't understand what happened. Probably that Sum_41 deserved the Lion's cup more than me but in the same time, my team has dominated the game, except the last quarter which was a nightmare for me.

So finally, I'm really happy to have won this game, against a wonderful opponent. It was the first time that I played an important game against sum and I'm not disappointed :D

Congrats, Joe.
It was a close victory.
The cowboys were good yesterday, but the Suns were as much the last game. So..
With Sum (who was verry impressive) we have now a third team in the top of the BBBL. (better than the rest)

Next season will be hard as hell ! SSS, Suns , Cowboys....?
This season it seems to be SSS....

Greetings from Obira ! and........

Merry Christmas !

I also think that Sonics will win the championship this season. But he's not impossible to defeat. Good luck for the PO ;)
