(CNA) - Taiwan's professional basketball team, the Taipei Fubon Braves, secured their spot in the P. LEAGUE+ playoffs today with a 100-94 victory over the Tainan TSG Hawks, thanks to a game-high 25 points from Archie Goodwin. This win also marks their third consecutive victory.
After concluding the retirement week events for their star player 'Beast' Lin Chih-chieh, the Braves played the Hawks away. Although the game was a back-and-forth battle in the first half, the Braves extended their lead after halftime, with foreign player Michael Holyfield scoring 9 points in the quarter, which became crucial for widening the score gap. In the final quarter, they successfully repelled the opponent's comeback, ultimately securing a 6-point victory and their third consecutive win.
Head coach Hsu Chin-che stated in a post-game press conference that knowing the Hawks had added a versatile new foreign player, Fardaws Aimaq, who is strong in scoring, rebounding, and assists, they had specifically set defensive strategies for him, which the entire team executed effectively. However, he also noted that the Hawks have two other excellent foreign players, De'Mon Brooks and Ray McCallum, and "this game also served as a trial run" against them.
In this game, Braves foreign player Archie Goodwin contributed a game-high 25 points, while inside force Michael Holyfield recorded 13 points and 3 blocks. Chou Kuei-yu scored a team-high 8 points and 6 assists among local players. Hsu Chin-che specifically mentioned that realizing the team's interior scoring was the worst in the league, they sought out Holyfield to bolster their frontline, and he has capably fulfilled the role of defending the paint. "His addition has greatly helped us," he said.
With their third consecutive win, the Braves have secured the final playoff spot. Hsu Chin-che pointed out that the team's prior goal was to ensure qualification, and now that it has been successfully achieved, the team atmosphere is improving. He hopes they will give their all in the remaining two regular season games to enter the playoffs in the best possible condition. (Editor: Chen Jen-hua) 1150418
