THE TAKE

One of the top contenders for the title, DKV Joventut look to move to 2-0 as they travel to Britain to face Guildford Heat. Garcia Aito Reneses's Spaniards pulled away from Alba Berlin with one spurt in the second half, and chances are high that another such surge could lead to victory again for DKV. Lubos Barton had a strong game with 20 points and combined excellently outside the arc with Demond Mallet, who added 17 points. And superstar talent Ricky Rubio continued his magic, compiling five points, six assists and three steals in just 19 minutes of action. Paul James's Heat must find an answer for Rubio and Brian Dux will probably earn the tough duty. Dux had 15 points, four rebounds and five assists and Daniel Gilbert scored 22 points though Guildford was blown out at Bosna. The British champions also will need to address some concerns in the low post where they were out-rebounded 39-24 against the Bosnians.

DKV Joventut confirmed its status as the team to beat in Group A by thrashing the Guildford Heat 61-95 on the road on Tuesday. Joventut improved to 2-0 to lead the Group A standings while the Heat dropped to 0-2. Jan-Hendrick Jagla paced the winners with 20 points on 8-of-9 two-pointers. Rudy Fernandez added 14 in as many minutes, Petar Popovic had 11 while Pau Ribas and Lubos Barton each got 10 for Joventut. Tony Dorsey had 16 points for the Heat, whose star guard Brian Dux was severely injured in a car accident this weekend. Mike Martin added 10 for the hosts. Joventut opened the game with a 6-25 run and never looked back as it got a 13-27 margin after 10 minutes. Joventut boosted its margin to 32-48 at halftime and then again to 48-78 after 30 minutes to seal the outcome long before the final buzzer.

Dorsey tried to get the Heat going with an early basket, but Joventut did not spend much time to break the game open. A big basket by teen sensation Ricky Rubio ignited a game-breaking, mammoth 2-18 run that Fernandez capped with a three-pointer, good for a 4-21 Joventut margin. Dan Gilbert scored for the Heat, but Fernandez answered while Ribas fed Barton for an easy basket to make it a 19-point game, 6-25. John Nottley and a final three-pointer by Dan Wardrope got the Heat within 13-27 after 10 minutes. Gilbert got the Heat as close as 19-31, but Joventut did not panic and kept dominating the game with intense, physical defense. Jagla and Barton soon boosted the guests' margin to 19-38 midway through the second quarter. The Heat never managed to get within single digits, as a final basket by Jagla gave Joventut a 32-48 halftime margin. The Heat did not recovered after the break, as Jagla scored from downtown to make it a 22-point game, 34-56. Dorsey kept trying to get the Heat back in the game, but Barton, Fernandez and Demond Mallet scored from downtown in a 0-13 run that made it a 30-point game, 42-72, late in the third quarter. Everything was said and done, as Joventut returned to Spain knowing that the elimination rounds are one step closer. Meanwhile, the Heat will have to get a first victory soon if they want to get back in the thick of the group race.
