THE TAKE

Unics Kazan can clinch a spot in the elimination round with a victory at home over EiffelTowers Den Bosch in Group I. Head coach Aco Petrovic's Kazan also advances with a loss by less than 40 points as long as both Hapoel Jerusalem and Strasbourg also lose. Unics also moves on with a loss by fewer than 47 points and a Jerusalem loss and a Strasbourg victory. Unics dropped to 4-5 with a loss at group leader PGE Turow Zgorzelec. The Russian side out-shot Turow 45%-43% but forced just 8 turnovers. Center Darjus Lavrinovic, shooting guard Sergei Chikalkin and power forward Dusko Savanovic all scored 13 points while small forward Tariq Kirksay collected 7 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists. But it was not enough for Petrovic's team, which also out-rebounded Turow 34-26. Unics knows it holds its destiny in its hands and Petrovic hopes his team does not underestimate EiffelTowers and get upset. EiffelTowers Den Bosch remained alive mathematically by beating Strasbourg to improve to 3-6. Head coach Randy Wiel's EiffelTowers would need to beat Unics by at least 40 points and have both Jerusalem and Strasbourg win or by at least 47 points if Jerusalem loses and Strasbourg wins. Against Strasbourg, Wiel's Dutch team shot 49% compared to 42% for the guests and Den Bosch committed just 8 turnovers. Small forwared Kees Akerboom led EiffelTowers with 18 points while power forwards Darrell Tucker and Robert Owens both scored 14 points and playmakers Dean Oliver and Roye Berkowitz combined for 13 assists and 7 steals. And EiffelTowers showed it can play defense, holding Strasbourg to just 5 points in the third quarter. But playing at home against Strasbourg and at Unics Kazan are two different things - especially with a spot in the elimination round up for grabs.

Unics Kazan completed a long comeback from near the bottom of Group I when it blasted visiting EiffelTowers Den Bosch 68-50 on Tuesday to advance to the ULEB Cup elimination rounds for a third consecutive season. Unics finished 5-5 and tied with Hapoel Jerusalem, behind group winner PGE Turow (8-2) and second-place Zadar (6-4). Although they went 1-1 in their head-to-head games, Unics finished third to Hapoel's fourth due to a +14 point differential in their two games. EiffelTowers finished 3-7, good for fifth place in the group. Defense that held EiffelTowers to just 7 points in the last 13 minutes before halftime was the key to victory for Unics. Victory Keyru and Darjus Lavrinovic led the winners with 13 points each, while Nikolay Padius added 10, while Tariq Kirksay was a force of nature with 9 points, 14 rebounds, 2 steals and 4 assists. Kees Akerboom had 14 points for EiffelTowers, making him the only visitor able to score in double digits.

EiffelTowers withstood a 6-2 start by Unics to get back in the game with a 2-8 blast that included triples by Damone Brown and Jos Frederiks, the latter's good for a 10-12 visitors' lead. Unics answered by scoring the next 5 points and finished the first quarter up 15-14, but had only just begun to assert itself. After 2 scoreless minutes to start the second quarter, Unics unleashed an 11-0 run in which Lavrinovic and Kirksay split all the scoring. The Unics defense did the rest, limiting EiffelTowers to just 5 points for the entire quarter while Dimitry Sokolov added late baskets to a solid 35-19 halftime lead for the hosts. After halftime, Kirksay supplied a high lead of 41-19 before EiffelTowers rediscovered its offense, riding back-to-back three-pointers from Roye Berkowits and 4 more points from Kees Akerboom to come within 43-32. Dusko Savanovic and Lavrinovic answered before the third quarter ended with Unics holding a 47-32 advantage. The Unics defense had taken over again, and by the time Keyru drilled a triple early in the final quarter, the Unics lead was approaching 20 points again, 52-34. Akerboom helped chip away at the difference until EiffelTowers was within 56-44 in the final quarter, but that's as close as the visitors got as Pavel Sergeev and Keyru struck again from downtown to make it 65-46 and veteran Marko Tusek put the lead back over 20 points going into the final minute.

Head Coaches

PETROVIC, ACO
Unics Kazan
"I am happy that we reached the Last 32 round. Not so glad with our game in offense even though we are playing better in defense. I gave some minutes to everybody tonignt. The game was not easy and we have a lot to work on yet. We should prepare for the Final Four of the Russian Cup and the ULEB Cup elimination rounds."
WIEL, RANDY
EiffelTowers Den Bosch
"Unics Kazan plays better and better, especially with Lavrinovic back and we missed two injured players."
