After the first postponements, Lba decided to postpone the races on the fourteenth day. They miss five more games

SASSARI. All stopped, waiting for better times. The basketball series A stops en masse and the championship gives an appointment – at best – on January 9th. Yesterday the LBA, which had already announced the postponement due to Covid of the Dinamo Sassari-Trento, Varese-Venice and Tortona-Cremona challenges, definitively closed the question relating to this weekend, postponing all the other races valid for the fourteenth. match day: Pesaro-Milan, Naples-Fortitudo Bologna, Virtus Bologna-Treviso, Brescia-Brindisi and Trieste-Reggio Emilia are therefore also missing. An understandable choice, dictated by various reasons, always linked to the pandemic. First of all, the consequences of the new government decree, “which will certainly affect the next few days – writes President Umberto Gandini – on the social and sporting life of all the associates, with particular reference to the changed regime of the quarantine period to which the positive components and the close contacts of the various team groups and the uncertainty of the timing regarding the application of the new capacities inside the sports halls ». And then considering “the uneven impact of positive cases and quarantines imposed on the various team groups, also following different applications of the rules by the local health authorities, it is considered necessary that the regularity of the championship be preserved as much as possible”.

A good grain, in any case, also considering that last weekend saw the postponement of six races of the thirteenth day. There is also uncertainty regarding the European competitions, with Olimpia Milano which saw the Euroleague fix the dates of the two postponed matches: the team from Messina will host Alba Berlin on January 18 and will visit the Zalgiris Kaunas on February 8th. Covid permitting, of course.
