The Piedmontese deservedly pass to PalaSerradimigni for 83-87
SASSARI. Internal setback for Dinamo, which after the two external victories in Trento and Trieste falls at home in the direct clash for fourth place with Bertram Derthona. On the day of returning to the field with Miro Bilan’s biancoblù, the Piedmontese deservedly pass to PalaSerradimigni for 83-87 after having led for almost the entire match despite the absence of Daum and the premature exit of Cannon and Macura (expelled).
In the first half we see an “old version” Banco, with a fairly predictable game and a defense that is not careful enough. Tortona puts the frecia on 7-10, closes the first period at 19-23 and in the second quarter he accelerates again: from 34-35 the Banco collects in less than 3 minutes a break of 14-3 (37-49), with Gentile which limits damage before rest: 42-49. In the third quarter the Sassari immediately sink to -14, 42-56, then with the zone defense they get back on track and at 30 ‘they are at -4, 65-69.
The last period opens with 6 triples in a row, Bendzius scores three, bringing Dinamo back forward. But from 79-75 the engine shuts down again and Tortona puts the arrow back with Severini and Cain, closing on +4 and taking on 2-0 in direct clashes. (a.si.)
