BT vs TPA Dream11: Bank of Taiwan will get another shot at ending their current losing run when Taoyuan Pauian Archiland pay them a visit for the second-round game in the 2019-20 season of Super Basketball League on Monday (IST). The last few weeks have been utterly disappointed for this club and its fans. The reason is that they have fallen from grace. Quite unexpectedly. From challenging for the top spot in the league, they are now dangling at fourth on the points table, and are absolutely out of form and momentum. The belief seems to be gone and nothing is working out. Neither changed tactics and nor the heavy rotation the head coach went with in the last few matches. The only positive to take for them is that they are well-positioned to qualify for the post-season, as bottom-placed Kaohsiung Jeoutai Technology are a huge seven games behind them on the points table. Bank of Taiwan’s last game was a 94-89 defeat to Yulon Luxgen Dinos.
Taoyuan Pauian Archiland, on the other hand, are picking up the form at the right time. The post-season is drawing closer and we all know that the momentum gained in the regular-season can be an x-factor when the teams start the all-important playoff matches. Following a 97-86 win over Kaohsiung Jeoutai Technology, Pauian extended their current run to a two-game winning streak. They are sitting third on the points table but the second place is well within heir reach and it’s possible that they could even end this round as the second-best team in the league if they win this game.

Bank of Taiwan vs Taoyuan Pauian Archiland team news:
Bank of Taiwan: Matt Jones recovered in time to play in the last game against Yulon Luxgen Dinos. So he should be fit enough to play this match as well. No other injury concerns for the hosts ahead of this match and all the big guns are available for selection. That said, a change on the roster or even in the starting five could yet happen as this is a back-to-back game and the coach may give rest to some players.
Taoyuan Pauian Archiland: Pauian will go into this game with a full-strength roster with no player missing the match either with injury or suspension. But changes are expected. Charles Garcia and Guan-Quan Chen both battle for the central position, while Chia-Chun Wu and Chun-Yen Peng are also fighting for a spot in the starting five. And same is the case with Chen Jian-En and Chi-Wei Lee.
