The comment: Germani Brescia. First in the standings, second in points and rebounds, fourth in assists. Five victories in a row, 109 points scored with Pistoia, 104 with Napoli, 86 with Reggio Emilia.
GeVi Naples. Three defeats in a row, clear against Brescia, sixth in the standings, third in points, tenth in rebounds and 6 in assists.
There is everything for the “goleada”, also because Brescia is the reigning champion and two years ago fought with Milan in the semi-final, yet the doubts are there. Why? Because Napoli has expert players, such as Pullen and Ennis, and elements capable of sparking fire in these matches, Zubic and Sokolowski.
Emotional team, which knows how to feed on emotions, but limited. Brescia can capitalize on greater physicality and depth, and under the Bilan-Cobbins pair. In short, phenomena on the outside (Della Valle, Massinburg, Christon…), but under the basket the game can be written.
