5/1/2026 – Reggio Basketball he remedies another burning defeat; 71 – 64 in favor of Vanoli Cremona.
A very heavy stop which is worth the 3-11 in this season, that is, on 14 matches played, 3 won and 11 lost and also a terrible result, 0-7, the “translation” is very clear…, away.
Game played really badly, euphemistically speaking, and managed with just as much difficulty, read bench, clearly… in the ball.
The situation is becoming truly worrying both for the mental stability of the team, in evident confusion, with unloaded players and, what is worse, for a staff that seems unable to find solutions.
Of course, the penultimate place in the standingshowever, four points from the safety zone, could be recoverable but it is this profound crisis, which at present certainly does not lead to optimism, that makes this situation almost a sentence.
In any case, we believe that a shock is inevitable at this point and in this case the only possible one is, it would be, the good served to coach Dimitri Priest…; we await signals from Via Martiri della Bettola.
However, we would not like the possible cancellation of relegations due to the very thorny and, if we may say so, inconceivable issue Trapani led to a sort of…..yes whateverwe still keep the Serie A anyway; in this case a terrible approach to this crisis that we would all really like to be resolved and, in any case, total lack of respect towards those beyond 3000 subscribers.
Given all this, we believe there is very little to say about the match. Pallacanestro Reggiana presents itself with the new player of former Paok, Stephen Brownpurchased to lend a hand in the small department, but still far from giving a concrete hand.
The red and whites showed up immediately taking control of the game, moving up to +8 thanks to Barford and Brown himself.
At the end of the first two quarters, however, Reggio, as has often happened this season, stops and, with the addition of the second lines, allows Cremona to recover the gap and take the lead; the third quarter is a painbecause the game is poor on both fronts, with tacky errors and a lot of confusion on the pitch.
This brings us to the decisive fourth, with the Vanoli ahead by 5 points on Pallanestro Reggiana; a further ordeal, a merciless snapshot of the state of the team which seems truly soulless.
