Paris Basket continues to alternate hot and cold. Relentless last week by winning the biggest victory in the history of the championship against Portel (120-57), Francesco Tabellini’s protégés had confirmed in the Euroleague.
Facing the great Real Madrid, the Parisians had gleaned a prestigious success, acquired in the money-time (98-92). But five days after the feat, they fell back into their mistakes against a team within their reach.
The band at Nadir Hifi, disappointing this Sunday (8 points to 0/10 at three points), were far too lax to hope for a result. With 103 points conceded, including 20 scored by Angelo Warner, the Ile-de-France residents could not hope for much from an afternoon to forget.
The leadership position is slipping away
In the first quarter, they had conceded 31 points and found themselves trailing by eight lengths. They were never able to catch up and gave promoted Boulazac his second away victory of the season.
Third in Betclic Élite, Paris sees the leading car move away. Monaco already has two more victories, while Nanterre is one victory ahead of them. If the bad results accumulate, the Parisians could even slip to fourth place, since Strasbourg has come back up to par. There are 12 days of championship remaining, before the playoffs, bringing together the eight best teams from the regular season.
