What Erick Green should do in Cantù is quite clear: make available the gigantic experience consolidated over years of basketball at the highest levels. There’s no doubt about this. Acqua S.Bernardo took it for that: phosphorus and points.
And what shouldn’t he do? One above all, so as not to make mistakes. Don’t be cumbersome for Giordano Bortolani, the talent in which the club has invested so much, and not just in expectations. As? Starting from the back, good good. Taking care not to put too much pressure on the man from Messina, much less instill doubts in him.
There shouldn’t be any problems whatsoever. The thirty-four year old point guard is too smart to fall into the trap. He spoke at length with his agent, with Nicola Brienza and with Sandro Santoro. All three explained to him as best they could the “who does what” within the team, so the concept is already known.
He will take minutes in the two roles, knowing the quota from which Jordan Bowden started and also interchanging with Jacob Gilyard and Andrea De Nicolao. Combos with Bortolani or one of the two directors are not excluded, indeed they will advance more and more.
The hope, needless to say, is that Green can also become that go-to guy that the team has always lacked up to this point in the season. It would become, in an instant, the extra weapon of this group.
