The Hanoi Buffaloes players started proactively, especially assigning players to closely guard foreign player Jermaine Marrow, the most dangerous threat for the Danang Dragons. Constantly being marked by fast guards prevented Jermaine Marrow from utilizing his strength in long-range shooting. Therefore, the Danang basketball team had to rely on individual plays from Yevgen Sakhniuk and young shooter Duong Duc Tri.
