Tim Waale jerked MVP hat in the sixth consecutive victory of Saigon Heat

Remember in the first leg match at Hoang Mai NT, Hanoi Buffaloes dominated at the beginning of the match, before going through the fourth half of the disaster against Saigon Heat. In the second leg at CIS, the similar script took place, just a faster development.

Hanoi Buffaloes overwhelmed in the first half of the match, when the personal efforts of Shane Henry, Jeffrey Stubbs or even Van Thang brought advantage. Besides, the phase to lose the ball is somewhat ungainly, causing the home team to lose a lot of points from the fast counterattack.

However, from the 3rd half onwards, the game lies completely in the hands of Saigon Heat. Coach Matt Van Pelt applied the regional defense squad, and immediately caught all the way to the opponent's ball.

HANOI Buffaloes, despite using two rights in the third half, could not have positive changes. Most of the offensive efforts of the visitors are personal. The deadlock and lack of ideas made Eric Weissling teachers only 10 points in this half.

At the other end of the yard, the Saigon Heat players did not hesitate to drill straight into the area under the basket, where Shane Henry was tired of constantly dealing with Tim Waale's muscles.

Heat has completely overwhelmed the opponent for the total number of rebounds (53-35), the number of rebound attacks (18-9), the point from the rebound attack (17-5) and the point in the 3 seconds (42-28).

HANOI Buffaloes was at the beginning of the fourth half, when Saigon Heat was subjective and soon allowed many young players to enter the pitch. Phu Hoang ended for nearly 2 years without scoring at VBA with his own 8-0 series, causing coach Matt Van Pelt to call the meeting.

Saigon Heat did not repeat this mistake again. Alonzo Stafford's consecutive scoring scores took the initiative to return to the home team. Meanwhile, Hanoi Buffaloes at the end of the match became more and more exhausted.

In the end, Saigon Heat won 82-71, marked the sixth consecutive victory of the defending champions and helped them strengthen the top position.

This match also witnessed the title of the best player for the first time to fall into the hands of the inner army this season. With 22 points, Tim Waale won this title worthy.

The Danish blood player played extremely disciplined, countered the influence and took away the physical strength of Shane Henry, causing Buffaloes's foreign soldiers to record only 16 points. In the attacking front, Waale achieved a throw efficiency of 9-12, and was fouled up to 5 times - the most match.

On the other side of the battle line, Hanoi Buffaloes missed the opportunity to expand the gap with Thang Long Warriors in the playoffs race, and revealed many weaknesses to overcome in the next matches.
