On the parquet of the Menora Mivtachim Arena, the outbursts of Roman Sorkinauthor of 18 points (8/9 shooting) in just 17′ of play, and the inventions of Lorenzo Brown (17 points with 8 assists), push coach Oded Kattash’s team to the nineteenth success of the season. Maccabi thus moves to one victory away from AS Monaco, a team that will however play away in Munich against Bayern on 31 March, and essentially certify at least sixth place in the regular season. On the other hand, 15 points are not enough for Olimpia Shabazz Napier and the 14 of Shavon Shields. Finally, see you again Kevin Pangoseven if the Canadian point guard does not affect as he would and could do.

The match
This is certainly not the night in which EA7 Emporio Armani throws away the chances of qualifying for the playoffs, but the challenge of the Menora Mivtachim Arena certifies thefluctuating trend of a team that could have – and perhaps should have – played quite another EuroLeague. It is too easy to point the finger at alleged culprits of any kind now, even if there will be reflections on his return to Italy. Not that Olimpia lacks character and intensity, against a team that has come to fourth consecutive home success (14-2 the season record at home), also driven by a Brown European format and by Sorkin’s exploits, the latter capable of repeating the great performance of the first leg (14 points with 6/6 from two) thanks to an evident dominance in the paint. L’11/14 from two points by Maccabi in the 1st quarter represents a statistic that would put even a super defense such as the red and white one on the ropes, especially because the Milanese attack And in obvious difficulty compared to the ballistic show provided against Bayern Munich. Heavy shooting almost never enters the 1st half (3/15) and only once redivivo DeShaun Thomas it seems to be able to represent a constant danger from beyond the arc of 6.75.
