Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.
The most surprising game was a loss of top-ranked Aigaleo (12-4) at the home court on Saturday night. Hosts were defeated by eleventh ranked Milonas (6-10) 88-82. It ended at the same time the three-game winning streak of Aigaleo. Milonas moved-up to tenth place, which they share with Pagrati. Aigaleo at the other side still keeps top position with four games lost. They share it with L.Xanthis. Milonas is looking forward to face higher ranked P.Faliro (#9) in Piraeus in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Aigaleo will play on the road against Dafni (#4) in Athens and is hoping to win this game.
Important game to mention about took place in Athens. Tenth ranked Pagrati (6-10) saved a 3-point victory at home edging much higher ranked Amyntas (11-5) 79-76 on Saturday evening.
