CVBL: Detroit Wins Over Denver 110-95
Bigelow was unstoppable today, leading Detroit to a 110-95 win over Denver. "I've never seen anything like that," said Denver star Conley. "Bigelow just flat-out dominated, and there was nothing any of us could do about it." Agreed coach Bob, "He's an excellent talent with an excellent coach. I'm afraid that we'll be seeing more of him down the road."
Bigelow refused to get caught up in the excitement, however. "I just did what coach told me to do," he said. "And we couldn't have won without my teammates doing their best as well." While true, Bigelow certainly increased the margin of victory from a close call to a solid win.
Detroit was led by Bigelow (33 points, 9 boards, 1 assists), Marko (16 points, a steal), Johnson (17 points, 8 boards, 0 assists). Denver was led by Conley (23 points, 2 assists, a steal), Downs (17 points, 11 boards, 0 assists, a block), Collins (20 points, 1 assists).
After the victory, Detroit stand at 11-7 and 7-2 at home. They hold at #1 in the Central and improve to #2 overall in the Eastern Conference. After the defeat, Denver are now 9-8. They move down to #4 in the Northwest and drop to #9 overall in the Western Conference.
