CBC League is at the halfway of the Regular Season and there are still another 4 rounds left. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

CBC League round 4 most important game was a victory of Praia over their biggest opponent Sao Jose 82-73 on Thursday night. It was a key game for the top position in the league. Strangely Sao Jose outrebounded Praia 49-36 including a 20-8 advantage in offensive rebounds. 29 personal fouls committed by Sao Jose helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Worth to mention a great performance of point guard Patrick Vieira (186-1993) who helped to win the game recording 24 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists. Lucas Lopes (206-2001) contributed with 18 points and 5 rebounds (on 6-of-7 shooting from the field) for the winners. Dominican guard Miguel Dicent (190-1994, college: Morehead St.) replied with 22 points and 5 assists for Sao Jose. Sao Jose's coach Sebastian Luis Figueredo rotated eleven players in this game, but that didn't help. Praia have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 5-1 record. Sao Jose at the other side keeps the second place with two games lost. They share the position with Blumenau and Tatui/AABT. Both teams do not play next round, which will be an opportunity for some rest.

At the losing side guard Alexei Patricio (192-1997) responded with 23 points and 6 rebounds. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games.
