Return to victory

After two difficult weeks at the club with two consecutive losses, the departure and arrival of a few players, talks about replacing the manager everything went back to normal after a magnificent victory over Slatina Soare for 117-49. One of the new signings Dolce Gabanna was named Man of the Match after an inmaculate 10/10 t2 that helped him to tallied 20pts 5reb 6asis 1stl 1blk in 31min of action. The rest of the start team responded combining 61pts 22reb 13asis on 24/31 t2 . We just had a rough period but we never stop working hard and i can assure you that we are back- (D.Cobic) ; I'm happy for my performance but the important thing is that we won the match and we showed the qualities of a great team - (Dolce Gabanna).

Next match is away against Suceava Pisciile (5-3) and holding into the ninth position at the moment, it could be a good oportunity to go for the third position if we win and Miami Nuggets beat Iasi Victoria tonight.Remember to check all scores at www.cyberdunk.com

Rumorology

Since the arrival of new signings everybody is talking about the departure of two or three players to compensate the roster. So far only El Fary has left the club but there is been talks and Drazen Cobic and A.Davidovich seem to be the next ones in the line. Both are members of the original team Ponte Ourense but with one seeking for more minutes to increase his value as a player and become british international (D.Cobic) the other one has seen his best at the club (Davidovich). We will be informing you...

Defeat at home

Incredible but truth...After the first ever international win we suffered the first defeat by two points at home. The rotations didn't work and what it was supposed to be an easy game turn into a nightmare. "We can only learn from this mistake"- Cobi Rodriguez said after only 12pts 6/6 in 24min yesterday.

We signed three new players this week; Center  OR SMOLNIK (19.6) 20pts 9reb ;  Small guard EL GRAN RAYOMING (19.9) 15pts 9reb 4.2 asis and Shooting Guard  DOLCE GABANNA (24.1) 11pts 21min per game which makes the team value go up to 20.64!!! Sadly we have to let go vietnamese center EL FARY who signed for Pitesti Razboi of division A in Romania and made his debut scoring 27pts 11/18 t2  5/10 ft 6reb 5asis 2blocks!! We will keep an eye on him!

Tonights match it's against CFR CLUJ the actual champions and unbeaten leaders this year.  

MVP is back!! Fifth victory

Named Man of the Match and key for the fifth victory for Ponte Ourense Cobi Rodriguez certainly showed what he is capable of last night. 36pts with 18/22 t2 17reb and 4asis was his on his bussiness card setting up new club records of points, field goals attempted and field goals converted. The rest more of the usual Davidovich and Werbern with 10pts, the last one only in 12min (resting in view of the first international match of the season). Walter Jugon coming back after a couple of low matches with 17pts and 6asis. Drazen Cobic posted 14pts and 6asis and once again Tom Lamberts excellent with 6/6 for 12pts.

(16-25) (11-37) (13-26) (7-33)  47-121

In another front Spain beat Greece 82-77 and book a place in the European Final against Russia. 

4-0 What a team effort

The forth consecutive victory this season and magnificent job of every team member tonight. Special mention for the man of the match Alberto Werbern (his second nomination in a row) with 25pts 11reb 4asi. Perfect in their roles V."mr statistic" Gudynas with 10pts 5reb 5asi and W.Flaco 9pts 4reb 5asis. Great help from the small guards Davidovich 11pts 8reb and V."the killer" Jakubcionis 20pts 11reb 4asis. Superb job from the centers El Fary with 11pts 6reb in only 12min played and two assists shy of a triple double Cobi Rodriguez 17pts 10reb 8asis with T.Lamberts adding 9pts in 12min and "the english Garbajosa" Drazen Cobic with 25pts 5reb 5asis 4stl including 3/3 on 3pt shooting. Just perfect.Congratulations!

Four time lucky? (preview 4th match)

We are in the verge of breaking the club's historical record of consecutive victories and what better that in front of our crowd in the refurbished Pabellon Paco Paz. After a few weeks of never ending construction work we are reopening our home court with a  new capacity of 7835 spectators.

Talking about the other team T?rgu Mures Varf just visiting us in the 24th place of the table and after a defeat at home of +30 which left their fans wondering what is going to happen tonight. We could test how Alberto Werbern recently named MOM is going to play with the inevitable help of D.Cobic and C.Rodriguez. Let's bring another victory!

Add another one and carry on...

"If you were wishing for a good debut for the club you couldn't have imagined better than this"- said Mr Nephew(chairman of Ponte Ourense) referring to the latest signing of Ponte Ourense, Alberto Werbern. He scored 25pts with 8/9 t2 3/3 t3 in 24 min adding 3reb and 3asis in order to become Man of the Match in his debut with Ponte Ourense. 

As for the rest Will Flaco with 18pts and 3stl very active guiding the team to another victory, helped by Cobi R inside the paint with 16pts 5reb 5asi 2stl and the omnipresent Drazen C adding to his account 10pts 8reb 4asi.

(14-24) (16-22) (16-18) (9-33) = 55-97

New signing

I'm glad to announce that today at 12:30pm Ponte Ourense has signed a Spanish player named Alberto Werbern from the FCB in the fourth division of Spain. The club is covering the most likely departure of E.Ortega with this player named six times man of the match last season, champion on 1 to 1 celebrated in Riga day 62 and with very good stats of 15.6 pts, 8.9 reb and 4.8 asis. We are hoping he will continue developing as a player and help us to reach our goals as a franchise. Good luck Alberto!

Preview third match

We are playing against Baia Mare Universitatea situated in 10th position on the table which it is the same position they finished last season. Their most important players are centers Jonas Pavardenis(21) Roy Williams(18.6) and PF Vicente Tovar(19.1). Once again strong opposition inside the paint but we are confident in beating them with the help from our sharp shooters.

Rumours

During the last few days some of you might have heard about new signings been made or some players departing and I have to announce that after the unsuccesful approach from Ponte Ourense to renew Elden Ortega's contract the owner have decided to listen to any offers that might come through from now on. We will be losing one of our valuable assets but  that will be an opportunity for players like Walter Jugon to step up and shows how great their commitment is.                                                                                                                         The latests offers are from Answer Club and more important from Ronin Buenos Aires from the Premier League in Argentina.                                                                                                Neither the John Murray(agent) or Elden Ortega have made any declarations to this point.

116-59 Second victory in a row

The 5335 souls that crowded the Pabellon Paco Paz tonight were witnesses of

an exciting victory over Resita Pisiciile (116-59). Once again excellent team work

and broken match after the first quarter that ended plus 17 for the locals. With

this victory Ponte Ourense is situated in the top of the table something that

was unheard of last season, we just hope to continue with this dinamic of good

results and magnificent basketball.

(28-11) (30-24) (25-12) (33-12) 116-59

Preview of second match

Our second opponent is Resita Prisiciile and this time we are playing at home against a team that was second in the league last year in division 2 which

allowed them to promote to Division A. They don't seem very dangerous behind the three point arc with a mixture of 6 players from Israel and Spain, in

the other hand they concentrate all their power in the center position with Rang Aro (21.8) and Hurk Shootalot (19.3). Tonight's match will be an

excellent opportunity to see how El Fary- C.Rodriguez- Lamberts and Cobic work together and eliminate any opposition, we are waiting to watch the

new signings Will Flaco and Walter Jugon (totally recovered from last match injury) in front of our crowd that we hope are going to fill the Pabellon Paco Paz.

Good luck guys!

Primer partido

Se ha levantado el telon de una nueva temporada con el enfrentamiento contra el Braila Scoala, equipo que

el curso pasado firmo su mejor temporada en la elite con un tercer puesto en liga y las semifinales de copa.

El partido no ha tenido color y muy pronto en el primer cuarto gracias a un parcial de 15-0 seguido de otro

de 9-1 ha sentenciado el duelo.Muy activos en este periodo dos de las nuevas incorporaciones Will Flaco con

12pts 6/8 y Walter Jugon con 9pts en apenas 8min. El resto del encuentro no deparo sorpresas y siguio por

los mismos derroteros mostrando el poderio bajo tableros del Ponte Ourense, algo de lo que sin duda

adolecian la pasada liga. Resultado final 44-83 victoria sin paliativos para Ponte Ourense
