    Meeting of the Ukrainian Titans - Part II

     ·  Jan 26 04 - Basketball: Ukrainian Titans - Seattle Supersonics' Vitaly Potapenko's Critical Role
     ·  "I gotta do my job ... that's all"

    In the second of four scheduled games this season the Seattle Supersonics met the Lakers in Los Angeles on January 28th.

    Overall, the game was lackluster. The Supersonics play was fatigued by both travel and the previous night's high-speed scorefest against the Dallas Mavericks (which they lost in the last 2 seconds 118-116). Similarly, the Lakers saw anemic play with the return of a less-than-fit Shaquille O'Neal after a twelve game abscence; the team struggled to figure out how to integrate him into their current play. In general, the Supes' starters dominated those of the Lakers while the Lakers bench smothered that of the Sonics, ultimately delivering a 96-82 win to Los Angeles.

    With both Laker Slava Medevedenko's and Supersonic Vitaly Potapenko's status elevated to that of starter this meeting gave the two players a chance to faceoff in their playing. Well sort of ....

    Vitaly's defensive job was to contain Shaquille O'Neal, a role which he took on with his usual straight-ahead professionalism limiting the Diesal's productivity to 1 for 3, though costing him three of his four fouls for the night. At one point when 350 lb Shaq was making a run for the basket Vitaly fouled him by grabbing him and lifting him off the floor.

    Slava's defensive job was to contain Vitaly. Vitaly nevertheless made 2 of his 5 shots and 1 of 2 freethrows (after being fouled by Slava). Vitaly also had 7 rebounds and 1 block (one of Kobe Bryant's attempts) on 26 minutes of play.

    In comparison to his previous games' production Slava's stats were modest. For the evening he made 2 of 8 field goal attempts, 1 of 2 free throws, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal on 29 minutes of play.

    The Sonics-Lakers next two matchups are March 5th and April 2nd.
