Chandler too tough for host to deal with

Lions star racked up 44 points and 18 rebounds as Ducks dropped third in a row

BEIJING - Even the scoreboard operator had seen enough of Wilson Chandler.

Chandler turned in a dominant performance against the Beijing Ducks on Wednesday night, putting up 44 points and 18 rebounds to lead the Zhejiang Lions back from a 20-point deficit for a 118-112 victory, the comeback so convincing the sold-out crowd at Shougang Gymnasium began fleeing for the exits before the game had been decided.
