Bamberg open Euroleague season beating Strasbourg
The German champions won the first game of the season
Brose Baskets Bamberg fell behind early, but rallied back in style to take total control of Strasbourg en route to an 84-70 victory to open up the 2013-14 Turkish Airlines Euroleague season. The German champs used a 19-1 run to finish the first half up 43-29 and Strasbourg never got within single digits again. Bamberg dominated the glass 37-23 and made an astounding 12 of 24 attempts from downtown, as Jamar Smith, Anton Gavel and Casey Jacobsen each made 3. Smith was the hero of the night as he triggered the big second-quarter with 11 points and finished his Euroleague debut with 19 points on near-perfect shooting in just 14 minutes on the floor. - See more at: http://www.worldofbasketball.org/euroleague-basketball-2013-2014-regular-season.htm#sthash.F8qDJ2Zo.dpuf
