TAIPEI (Chinese Taipei) - Taiwan Beer defeated the Yulon Luxgen Dinos, 117-78, in Game 6 of the Super Basketball League (SBL) Finals to claim the league title in this 17^th season.

The regular-season champions Taiwan Beer blasted right out the gates with a 32-16 first quarter. They only continued to pile it on in the second quarter to finish the half up ahead by 35 points. The Beer Bears cruised all the way through the second half on their way to hoist the SBL trophy.

National team guard Chiang Yu-An had his best game of the Final series with 24 points on 9-18 shooting from the field and 9 assists. Foreign mainstay star Igor Zatysev from Ukraine added 17 points on 9-12 field goal shooting. Kentrell Barkley wrapped up a stellar first season in the SBL with 22 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists.

Chiang was the MVP from the previous SBL season while Zatysev was awarded the Best Foreign Player in that same year. However, Taiwan Beer ended up losing in the Finals to the Fubon Braves.

Yulon fought till the very end with their core of Marcus Keene, Sim Bhullar, Lu Cheng-Ju, and Chou Po-Chen, but could not pull the upset off in the final bout.

The title is Taiwan Beer’s 5^th all-time playing in the SBL. This ties them up with Pauian Archiland for most SBL championships won across the league’s 17 years of existence.
