POST-GAME COMMENTS

Game recap: FMP have seized their 2nd win of the season after defeating Borac at home court in a very exciting match. The two sides fought a hard battle for 40 minutes, while at the end FMP’s 11:0 run late in the 4th quarter turned out to be the key for winning this match.

FMP have therefore moved up to the 8th place on the standings with the overall score of 2-3, while Borac are currently placed at the 13th spot with the overall score of 1-3 (their 4th round game against Mornar was postponed).

Key moments: FMP were up by 9 points – 80:71, with 8 minutes left on the game clock, which made Borac’s head coach Marko Marinović call for a time-out. Whatever Marinović said to his players during the break worked perfectly on the court as Borac made an 11:0 run to take over the lead – 80:82, with 4 minutes left to be played. FMP’s head coach Vladimir Jovanović then called for a time-out and once again the things have turned around on the court. This time, FMP’s players reacted positive on the time-out as they answered back with their own 11:0 run to once again gain a 9-point lead – 91:82. Nemanja Nenadić was the hero for the home team as he scored 7 out of those 11 points and helped FMP make the final push toward the win.

Man of the match: Although Nemanja Nenadić was the hero for FMP at the end, it was his teammate Marko Radonjić who had the highest index rating in the home team. Radonjić played his best game in this season as he finished the match with 23 points (including 5 three-pointers), 7 rebounds and 2 assists. His overall index rating was 26.

Can’t trick the stats: FMP have won the battle in the paint against Borac. The Panthers grabbed 10 rebounds more than their rivals, which was certainly very important for a close game like this.
