Sebastien Bellin - Dexia Mons-HainautDexia Mons-Hainaut put an end to its Eurocup participation this season in style with a double overtime home win against PGE Turow on Tuesday night by 98-97. The guests dominated for most of the game but Mons managed to complete a long comeback. In the final minutes, the hosts even had a respectable lead, but a final offensive rebound and basket by Ronald Moore tied the game at 74-74 for overtime. In the extra period, Turow started rolling but AJ Slaugher put Mons in the game again almost single-handedly for a second OT at 85-85. In the final period, the hosts managed to hold a slim margin until the end of the game and escape with their second win of the season. Both teams, already eliminated from the Last 16 race before the game, end the season tied at 2-4 in Group H. Warren Carter led the winners with 24 points and 10 rebounds, Sebastien Bellin added 17, Ronell Taylor 15, AJ Slaughter 14 and Shan Foster 10. For Turow, Daniel Kickert had 19 points, Ronald Moore 16, David Jackson 13 and Michal Chylinski 11.

The hosts opened fire with a 4-0 and soon, AJ Slaughter free throws made it 6-2. A 0-5 however capped by Giedrius Gustas allowed PGE Turow to jump ahead for the first time. From then on, the game was close throughout the first quarter. Dallas Lauderdale slammed for Turow to make it 16-22 but Ronell Taylor free throws for Mons kept it close once again until a last-second three by Lorenzo Giancaterino made it 21-22 for Turow after 10 minutes. Another three by Giancaterino helped Mons soar to a starting 26-22 in the quarter, but then came up the Turow steamroller. With a 2-18 run in the following minutes including threes by Daniel Kickert for 8 points in the burst for him, and a slam by David Jackson to round it out, the guests had gone to a 28-40 double-digit lead. Despite Turow's poor numbers form the arc, more solid shooting from the mid and short range allowed them to march throughout the quarter up to a 32-45 halftime lead.

A starting 5-0 to the second half allowed Mons to get a little closer, but Michal Chylinski's three for Turow made it 37-50 to keep things the way they were. A new 7-0 however made it clear that Mons was not to surrender so easily, as two Taylor free throws put the 44-50 in the scoreboard. The guests managed the situation one more time as Jackson blasted a new three from downtown for 48-57 but the third period reached the ending with a Taylor layup for 50-57. In the final quarter of the Eurocup season for both teams, the hosts started strong with a 6-0 run capped by Warren Carter's dunk for 56-57. Finally, a slam by Shan Foster completed the comeback of Mons for the 60-59 forcing Turow's timeout. Despite a 3 of 13 from the arc, Mons worked hard under the boards and was outrebounding Turow by 33-24. Entering the last three minute of the game, Mons was still dominating by one single point, 62-61, and the run went on with Sebastien Bellin blasting a three for 68-61. Entering the last minute, Gustas nailed his bomb from downtown to make it 71-66. Turow was farfrom done as Kickert nailed two free throws for the 72-68 with 34 seconds to go. Ronald Moore had a three for Turow after a Taylor turnover for 72-71, but with 22 seconds to go Carter hit free throws for 74-71. In the next play it was Kickert who earned a trip to the line with 7 seconds to go. He scored the first one while missing the second, allowed Moore to grab an offensive board for the 74-74 and send the game into overtime.

Kickert and Moore kept on punishing Mons' rim at the start of the extra session. When Chylinski had his three-point play and Moore added another layup, the score was already 77-85 with 2:25 to go. Slaughter tried to revive Mons, and thanks to the help of a new Bellin three, he did it by tying again at 85-85 with 10 seconds to go. In the final plays nobody scored, so the game reached the second overtime. In the second extra period, it was Mons who started with the upper hand and a 94-90 with 1:27 to go after Ahmad Nivins free throws. Foster made it 96-92 and Chylinski replied for 96-94. With 10 seconds to go, Mons called a timeout and Alexandre Libert hit two free throws for 98-94. Fast enough, Moore blasted a three for Turow and a 98-97 but that was all she wrote as the final buzzer allowed the hosts to escape with their second win of the season.

Belfius Mons-Hainaut
"After two extra times, we deserved to win, but it left a taste of under achieving after the games we played in Podgorica, at Turow and also during more than 20 minutes in Berlin. It was a very strange game, because we began very well and after, we played poorly in the second quarter.And during the first extra time,we were 8 points behind, but we succeeded to come back and with my young players, we won. I think we'll draw positive lessons for February or March, for if some people are saying that an elimination after having beaten Besiktas is an unfavorable result,I don't think so."
WINNICKI, JACEK
PGE Turow
"First, I want to congratulate coach Shivek and the Mons players. As far as we're concerned, we finish in last place, but I think we could have done better with a little more experience..."

"To finish the season it was very important for us to win, because we were unlucky during four games that we could have won in the Eurocup. In the Belgian League we also lost some games and some players lost confidence and I think we deserved to qualify for the second round. Now we must concentrate on the Belgian Cup in January and to the future."
CEL, AARON
PGE Turow
"Between two teams that were eliminated and had nothing to win, except to avoid last place, it was a very good game with players fighting for every ball for 50 minutes. It's never pleasant to lose, but I think we lost our chance in the first extra time when we were 8 points ahead. That's when we made some mistakes and allowed our hosts to come back."
