The victory decided their best-of-seven final series 4-1 in favor of EiffelTowers, which had also been national champion four times between 2001 and 2007. EiffelTowers ended the series early with a second-half comeback after having fallen behind Lieden, the regular season winner, by 37-30 at halftime. The visitors came back to tie 48-48 after three quarters, but fell behind 56-50 again before rallying behind Peter van Paassen and getting important free throws from Rogier Jansen to safeguard the big victory. Frank Turner paced the winners with 17 points while Jansen added 16 and Stefan Wessels ripped 10 rebounds. For Leiden, Seamus Boxley led all scorers with 22 points. The new champions won the hard way, taking three games on Leiden's court by a combined total of 9 points, while suffering their only loss at home in Den Bosch in Game 4. EiffelTowers had also ousted last season's Eurocup representative, GasTerra Flames, by a single point in the fifth and last game of the semifinals.
