MILAN. Dinamo grits its teeth but the leaders Olimpia Milano is a steamroller. The biancoblù of Demis Cavina remain virtually in the game for half the match but in the long run they collapse under the blows of a not very precise but solid Armani. At the Assago Forum, on the sixth day of Serie A, it ends 79-50 for the team of Ettore Messina, Gianmarco Pozzecco and Gigi Datome. The start of the match is very complicated, with Milan playing 5 perfect minutes and flying at +12, 18-6. Dinamo regains altitude with the entry of Logan and Gentile and closes the first period below 7, 22-15. The Milan area is a mess but the triples keep the Banco afloat, which dates back to -5 (30-25) in the middle of the second period, before losing contact again: Datome is very hot and together with Daniels builds the new Milanese shoulder (42-27), then Diop limits the damage before the rest with the triple of 42-30.
After the interval the percentages from the Sassari’s arc collapse, but the Banco manages to stay virtually in the game for many minutes thanks to a good defense. Milan, however, accelerates in the final of the period and with a blaze of Daniels touches +24 (60-36) before the third siren. The last period is pure suffering, with Dinamo struggling to make a basket and after returning to -21 (71-50), miss a few too many baskets and end up getting overwhelmed. Milan closes in a carriage on +29, 79-50. (a.si.)
