Don't expect the Hamamatsu Higashimikawa Phoenix's New Year's resolution to be any different than their overall season goal: to compete for a championship.
The Phoenix provided a bold reminder of that on Saturday, trouncing the host Bambitious Nara 92-66 to extend their bj-league winning streak to 13 games.
Mo Charlo scored 25 points, knocking down 4 of 6 3-pointers, and grabbing 10 rebounds in a spirited effort for Western Conference-leading Hamamatsu (22-3). Olu Ashaolu added 19 points and Nile Murry and Jermaine Green both scored 13. Masahiro Oguchi had 11 points, converting all three of his 3-point attempts, off the bench.
