Marshall MK Lions made light work of Jelson Homes DMU Leicester Riders to maintain a hope of winning the title.
Lions were without the injured Shawn Jamison and Tony Windless but were too powerful for the Riders.
It was Leicester though who led after the first quarter 23-24. The joy was shortlived as a Yorick Williams three sparked a 9-0 burst for Lions to take them 36-29 in front midway through the second period.
Riders fought back to tie at 45-45 before a Terrell Brown lay-up just before the interval handed Lions the lead for good.
A 12-0 run to start the third quarter cemented the Lions lead and then an 11-0 run to close the match gave the scoreline a very one-sided look.
