Dieser Rekord ist für die Ewigkeit. Aber freuen konnte sich Karsten Tadda (36) nicht …
Am Sonntag hatte Bambergs Urgestein beim 73:75 gegen die MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg mit seinem 638. Spiel mit Alex King (40) gleichgezogen. Jetzt hat er den Rekord für die meisten Spiele in der Easycredit Basketball Bundesliga für sich allein.
Doch so richtig nach Feiern zumute, war ihm nicht. Tadda und die Bamberger kassierten beim 77:92 (37:53) beim Tabellen-Zweiten Ratiopharm Ulm trotz einer zwischenzeitlichen Aufholjagd die 20. Pleite einer völlig verkorksten Saison.
[–>Für den neunmaligen Meister stand schon vorher fest, dass er am Ende der Hauptrunde auf Platz 15 einlaufen wird – das schlechteste Ergebnis seit mehr als 30 Jahren!
Die extrem heimstarken Ulmer haben durch den 15. Heimsieg dagegen Platz zwei sicher.
Im Fußball ist Frankfurt-Idol Charly Körbel (70) mit 602 Partien der Rekordhalter. Tadda und Bamberg verbindet eine ähnliche Liebe. Der Ex-Nationalspieler (89 Länderspiele) wurde im Bamberger Verein ausgebildet und stand dort im Fanblock. 2007 gab er sein Profi-Debüt und gewann mit seinem Heimatverein von 2010 bis 2012 das in der Liga einzigartige Triple Double (drei Jahre in Folge Meister und Pokalsieger) sowie 2013 und 2015 zwei weitere Meisterschaften.
Im letzten Auswärtsspiel seiner Karriere musste Tadda jetzt ausgerechnet bei einem seiner Ex-Klubs ran, für den er in der Rekord-Saison 2016/17 (27 Siege in Serie) auflief. Die Ulmer Fans begrüßten ihn als Freund – und hatten für die Nr. 9 sogar eine Choreo vorbereitet.
Der ehemalige Ulmer Meister-Trainer Anton Gavel (40) beorderte bei seiner Rückkehr an den Ort seines größten Erfolgs den Jubilar in der „Starting Five“ – damit war der historische Rekord mit dem ersten Sprungball perfekt.
Nur 37 Sekunden später gab’s schon das nächste „Rekordchen“: Ulms Karim Jallow (28) verwandelte den ersten Freiwurf der Partie und machte damit seinen 2500. Karriere-Punkt. Es folgten bis zum Ende noch 18 weitere Zähler.
Die Bayern-Jäger verteilten keine weiteren Geschenke. Das ungleiche Duell war gefühlt nach zehn Minuten durch – 27:16. Zu groß war der Qualitäts-Unterschied. „Die Bamberger werfen mit Wattebäuschen, die Ulmer mit Steinen. Das geht auf lange Sicht nicht gut“, sagte Dyn-Kommentator Florian Pertsch.
Halt! Nicht so schnell! Denn als die Ulmer die Sache nach der Halbzeit zu leicht nahmen, arbeiteten sich Tadda & Co. nach einem 22-Punkte-Rückstand heran und glichen in der 33. Minute sogar noch mal zum 72:72 aus. Doch nach einer kurzen Panik-Phase fanden die Ulmer ihren Rhythmus wieder und brachten das Ding nach Hause.
MVP erneut orange!: Chemnitzer Urgestein holt BBL-Titel
Bester Bamberger: Ronaldo Segu (25) mit 20 Punkten.
Am letzten Hauptrunden-Spieltag Sonntag gegen Rasta Vechta (16.30 Uhr, Dyn) kann Tadda die Bestmarke sogar noch mal steigern. Danach ist Schluss. Nach 17 Spielzeiten beendet er seine Karriere und wird Nachwuchskoordinator und Markenbotschafter des neunmaligen Meisters. Team-Kollege Brandon Horvath (27) bei Dyn: „Wir können ihn hoffentlich mit einem Sieg in den Ruhestand schicken. Er hatte eine großartige Karriere und wir wissen zu schätzen, was er alles für uns getan hat.“
Ob Taddas Bundesliga-Rekord jemals geknackt wird, ist fraglich. Denn heutzutage wechseln die Top-Spieler meistens schon früh ins Ausland. 17 Jahre in derselben Liga und ohne größere Verletzungspausen sind darum kaum zu wiederholen.

Rafael Devers shoots down move to 1B after Triston Casas injury, lays into Red Sox front office
Rafael Devers entered the season under a cloud of controversy due to his disinterest in moving from third base to designated hitter. Now, he's balking at another move.The longtime third baseman has been a full-time designated hitter this season after the Boston Red Sox signed another All-Star at the position, Alex Bregman, over the offseason. However, the first base position is now wide open for Boston after Triston Casas' season-ending ruptured patellar tendon.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementSome thought Devers would be a natural solution given that third basemen frequently make an appearance on the first base depth charts, but the 28-year-old shot the idea down and then some on Thursday.Through an interpreter, he told reporters the front office had approached him about the move and that his answer was a firm "no," via Christopher Smith of MassLive:“They had the conversation with me,” Devers said […]
The Anaheim Ducks are eager to win again, but is hiring coach Joel Quenneville a good move?
ANAHEIM, Calif. — In an instant, Joel Quenneville became the most accomplished head coach the Anaheim Ducks have ever hired — and the one with the most baggage.The Ducks, in hiring the three-time Stanley Cup champion, whose stature may be forever tarnished by his role in a sexual assault scandal while he was the coach of the Chicago Blackhawks, let their mission be known: They’re out to win.AdvertisementThey’ve braced themselves for the blowback after the announcement on Thursday. For many, the idea of letting Quenneville back in the NHL is a non-starter. And the Ducks knew they would take a public relations hit for their choice when they easily could have avoided the fuss – if not outright scorn – by going in another direction. Multiple other candidates, including David Carle, Jay Woodcroft and Rick Tocchet, were interviewed.The thing is, […]

Twins takeaways: Byron Buxton does it all, Bailey Ober grinds, Brooks Lee vs. fastballs
MINNEAPOLIS — By land, by sea or by air, Byron Buxton is finding different ways to make a significant impact for the Twins.Following three big days with the bat, Buxton used his wheels and an accurate, strong arm to help the Twins complete their second series sweep of the season on Thursday afternoon. Buxton walked twice, scored two runs, stole a base and made a critical defensive play as the Twins rallied to beat the Baltimore Orioles 5-2, increasing their season-best winning streak to five in front of an announced crowd of 17,410 at Target Field.AdvertisementBrooks Lee provided arguably his biggest hit in a Twins uniform, Bailey Ober gutted his way through five innings and the bullpen delivered again as the team improved to 18-20.

Of course, Paige. I mean, the names go on. You want them to be involved as quickly as possible to get comfortable. Because USA Basketball can be, from a player standpoint, can be an uncomfortable situation because we don’t have a lot of training time and you’re asked to do possibly, potentially, a different role.

Is Pope Leo XIV a Cubs fan? Robert Prevost’s brother denies team’s claim, says he roots for White Sox
Getty Images With the election of American cardinal Robert Prevost as the new pope, the City of Chicago is abuzz with Pope Leo XIV being one of their own. Long before being elected as the 267th pope and leader of the Roman Catholic Church on Thursday, Pope Leo XIV -- the first pope from the United States -- was born in Chicago, and the city's two Major League Baseball teams are trying to settle exactly who now has the rooting interests of the entire Catholic Church behind them.On Thursday afternoon -- running with a claim by an ABC News reporter -- the Chicago Cubs boasted that Pope Leo XIV was a fan of theirs, with their famous signage outside Wrigley Field telling the locals the good news: "Hey, Chicago. He's a Cubs fan!" However, those claims would quickly be contradicted by John […]
