A sensational 28-point Sokolowski drags De ‘Longhi into the middle of the playoff area: now the fans can dream
TREVISO. They had to fight until the last day to save themselves. Moreover, at the beginning of the year the various starting grids gave them in the queue, having to elbow between acceleration and the other to avoid finding themselves at the back of the group. But that team has definitely blossomed, fixed a few flaws and now travels like a train towards the first Serie A posteason in its history. This team is De ‘Longhi.
Treviso Basket, the team coached by coach Max Menetti, took its fourth consecutive victory. After the misstep at Cantù’s home (and that could have been won too) here are the successes against Reggio Emilia, Fortitudo, and Cremona, and now the poker against Allianz Trieste, beaten 95-76 at Palaverde with a great team performance .
Above all, Michal Sokolowski should be mentioned. The Pole closes with 28 points, a career record in Italy, with a sensational 6/9 from a long distance, and also a lot of defense. The one that forced the team of coach Dalmasson to the ropes, which accused the first uppercuts in the second quarter when, held at only 13 points, it was hit by a moving train.
The shooting begins and David Logan materializes in an amen (he also has a Polish passport): he shoots from all sides, if his shots do not enter it is because they make him a foul, so there are 22 points in an amen. Assatanato. Almost like Mekowulu, who instead commits a nonsense by going to break through, with Menetti to call him back to keep him company on the bench for the fourth foul. But by now TvB finds unexpected protagonists, given that the gear turns like a marvel and everyone gives their contribution.
So if Trieste tries to hold up in the third quarter, in the last part it is once again asphalted, always by the Pole who has now got a taste for it. De ‘Longhi always flies with a double-digit advantage, when there are 5’ missing, it reaches even 15 above, then the contest is closed, with Treviso also conquering the goal difference (in the first leg they had lost by 5) trimming almost 20 points to the giuliani.
And Saturday is the away match in Pesaro: Max Menetti’s team will try to extend a streak of great team success.
