Am Samstag wurden die Niners Chemnitz bei einer Gala mit dem „Sport Chemmy“ in ihrer Heimatstadt als Mannschaft des Jahres 2024 (Sieg im Fiba Europe Cup) geehrt. Am Sonntag gab’s gleich den nächsten Grund zum Feiern.
Nach vier Auswärtsspielen kehrten die Sachsen in ihre Messehalle zurück – und schlugen in der Easycredit Basketball Bundesliga die Bamberg Baskets nach Verlängerung mit 99:98 (50:47/87:87).
Beide Teams hatten letzte Woche heftige Klatschen kassiert: Die Niners verloren bei Ratiopharm Ulm mit 87:117, Bamberg in Braunschweig mit 88:114. Wer als Konsequenz damit gerechnet hatte, dass sich beide nun vor allem aufs Verteidigen konzentrieren, wurde eines Besseren belehrt. Nach 20 Minuten führten die Gastgeber knapp mit 50:47. Und Bambergs Co-Trainer Arne Woltmann (50) stellte im Dyn-Interview fest: „Ich glaube beide Teams wollen verteidigen, kriegen es aber gerade nicht hin. Die Mannschaft, die es am ersten schafft, die Defensive hochzuschrauben, wird wahrscheinlich das Spiel gewinnen.“
[–>Die Defensive zog nach der Pause tatsächlich auf beiden Seiten an. Dadurch wurden andere Dinge entscheidend. Die 15 Ball-Verluste der Bamberger. Die schwache Dreier-Quote (19 Prozent) sowie die 16 Offensiv-Rebounds der Niners. Und die Uhr!
Denn in einem denkwürdigen Spiel war DAS Gesprächs-Thema der Ausfall der Uhr nach Ende der regulären Spielzeit. Bis die Ersatzuhren rangeschafft und am Spielfeldrand aufgebaut waren, werkelten und schwitzen die Chemnitzer Verantwortlichen 20 Minuten. Erst dann konnte die Verlängerung beginnen.
Die Spieler hielten sich auf dem Parkett mit lockeren Würfen warm. Im TV lief Moderatoren-Legende Michael Körner heiß und haute einen Spruch nach dem anderen raus.
Als der Hallensprecher Orga-Chef Ronny Kendzira ausrief, war Körner noch optimistisch, dass es schnell gehen könnte: „Nur Ronny kann sich hier wohl einen Reim draus machen. Da kommt er. Das ist Ronny. Der kennt sich hier mit allem aus in dieser Halle. Das ist ein sehr, sehr fähiger Mensch. Ich sag mal, in 8 Sekunden stehen da 5 Minuten auf der Uhr. Ronny, enttäusch mich nicht!“
Doch es dauerte wesentlich länger…
BBL: Bei Chemnitz-Sieg gegen Bamberg: Mega-Pause wegen Uhren-Panne: Auch „Atomkraftwerk-Methode“ zündet nicht
„Ronnys Augen blicken skeptisch Richtung Uhr. Und er sitzt! Das ist kein gutes Zeichen. Sitzen heißt, es dauert länger. Vielleicht ist es ein Re-Start, die gute alte Atomkraftwerk-Vorgehenweise. Runterfahren, hochfahren – dann wird es schon wieder laufen.“ Doch auch das zündet nicht.
Körner schwant Böses: „So ein Reset kann dauern. Unter Umständen ist das (auf dem Computer) sogar Windows. Gibt es den noch, den Blue Screen? Größter anzunehmender Fehler?“
Körner (sitzt nicht in der Halle) kommentiert jede Regung von Ronny. „Der Blick ist nicht positiver. Zeigefinger an die Unterlippe. Von der Körpersprache her signalisiert das Skepsis. Auch 25 Prozent Ratlosigkeit.“
Ronny steht der Schweiß auf der Stirn. Immer mehr Helfer kommen hinzu. Am Ende sind sechs Mann inklusive Pressesprecher Matthias Pattloch mit dem Problem beschäftigt.
Körner mutmaßt: „Vielleicht ist die Uhr gewerkschaftlich organisiert und eine Verlängerung ist da nicht eingeplant?“
Und am Ende: „Vielleicht ist ja irgendein Boot der russischen Schattenflotte über irgendein Kabel geratscht? Aber natürlich ist die Lage von Chemnitz ein bisschen weit weg vom Meer…“
ER zeigt es allen: Rekord-Spieler gewinnt Zuschauer-Wahl
So wurde die längste Unterbrechung der Saison unterhaltsamer als weite Teile des Spiels zuvor!
Als es endlich weiterging, setzte sich Chemnitz durch zwei gute Defensiv-Sequenzen in den letzten Sekunden durch, nachdem Bambergs Top-Scorer Noah Locke (26 Punkte) 10 Sekunden vor Schluss einen Dreier vergab.
Mann des Spiels war Bayern-Rückkehrer Kevin Yebo (29). Der zum ersten Mal wieder in einem Heimspiel für seinen Herzens-Verein auflief und dabei 26 Punkte, 9 Rebounds und 3 Assists beisteuerte.
„Es war wirklich eine Achterbahnfahrt“, sagte der Big Man. Die Mannschafts-Kollegen crashten das Dyn-Interview. Yebo zur Mega-Pause vor der Verlängerung: „Es ist ein bisschen schwierig, damit umzugehen. Aber da muss man professionell bleiben. Ich kenne das auch von 3×3-Turnieren.“
Die Niners verteidigen so ihren Play-off-Platz. Bamberg droht unter Trainer Anton Gavel (40) das schlechteste Ergebnis seit Wiedereinführung der eingleisigen Bundesliga 1995 und zum dritten Mal in Folge die Play-offs zu verpassen.

How far will Shedeur Sanders fall in NFL Draft? Saints pick Tyler Shough over Colorado QB in Round 2
Getty Images Shedeur Sanders was not selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, and it may be a while until Sanders is picked in the second round (and this is assuming he's picked in Round 2). CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones doesn't know if Sanders will be picked within the first 10 picks of the second round -- which are Nos. 33 to 42. The New Orleans Saints had the No. 40 pick and selected Louisville's Tyler Shough over Sanders, making Shough the third quarterback taken in the draft. So where would Sanders go with Shough off the board? The New York Jets are the No. 42 pick and already have Justin Fields, while the San Francisco 49ers possess the No. 43 pick (and Brock Purdy). The Dallas Cowboys have the 44th pick, making it even more uncertain where Sanders will go. This brings […]
Patriots draft TreVeyon Henderson: Every-down upside with Jahmyr Gibbs-esque explosion means RB1 dreams
Getty Images The New England Patriots continued to build out their offense around franchise quarterback Drake Maye by selecting Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson with the No. 38 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft just two picks after his Buckeye teammate Quinshon Judkins came off the board to the Cleveland Browns. The Patriots drafted offensive lineman Will Campbell in Round 1 and have now provided Maye with a new best friend in the backfield. Henderson joins a backfield that features Rhamondre Stevenson as their incumbent starter, but new offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has a history of using multiple backs in his offense. McDaniels also has a history of maximizing running backs who have skill sets in the pass game. Henderson is arguably the highest-upside receiving back in this class. On tape, you can find Henderson running double moves on […]
Saints draft Tyler Shough in second round: New Orleans passes on Shedeur Sanders to select 25-year-old QB
Getty Images One of the oldest, yet most intriguing prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft is off the board, as the New Orleans Saints have selected former Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough with the No. 40 overall pick. He was the third quarterback selected this year behind Cam Ward and Jaxson Dart -- and ahead of Shedeur Sanders. Shough played seven seasons of college football and will turn 26 years old during his rookie season, but there were multiple teams who were intrigued with the former Oregon and Texas Tech signal-caller. In fact, one head coach even reportedly said Shough was his No. 1 QB in this class over Cam Ward! Shough completed 62.7% of his passes for 3,195 yards, 23 touchdowns and just six interceptions in 2024. He has a desirable frame at 6-foot-5 and legitimate arm talent as well, but did suffer […]
2025 NFL Draft best prospects available: Shedeur Sanders, Will Johnson, Mike Green headline group
Getty Images The dust is beginning to settle on Day 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft. A few prospects that had been commonly mocked in the first round are still available at the start of Day 2, including Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders. Miami quarterback Cam Ward was taken No. 1 overall, but the second quarterback was not taken until No. 25 overall when the New York Giants traded up with the Houston Texans to select Ole Miss' Jaxson Dart. In addition to Sanders, Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough and Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe are still available. Coming into the year, Michigan cornerback Will Johnson Jr. and Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden III had been popular choices among the top-10 overall in mock drafts. For different reasons, both of those players are still available for selection on Friday night. Neither is the top prospect […]

He's about a year younger than Jalen Hurts, who just won a Super Bowl MVP. He was in the same high school recruiting class as Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, Micah Parsons and Patrick Surtain II.
