It is off-topic but European basketball is the same as football I mean national leagues and international competitions. But it is understandable if you don't know that because countries where basketball is far from popular sport make impression that the only basketball in the world in NBA.

Climamio currentl 12th have no chances to climb to the 9th place. The future of Benetton is still unknown but it is doubted that they will lose their spot in EL.

Montepaschi Siena won game one of the final. Benjamin Eze (207-C/F-81, college: S.Idaho JC) was the mvp of the game scoring 12 points, grabbing 8 rebounds and adding 5 blocks. Siena defended very well in the paint: Virtus Bologna had 13/42 by 2p.. Vidivici resisted very well: at the beginning of the 4th quarter Dusan Vukcevic (201-F-75, agency: Interperformances), Guilherme Giovannoni (202-F-80, agency: Interperformances) and Brett Blizzard (191-G-80, agency: Octagon, college: NC-Wilmington) invented a 14-4 rally to tie the game 68-68. But Terrell McIntyre (175-G-77, college: Clemson), the top scored of the game with 22p., closed the game for the 1-0.

What are his stats in other games? Surely to score 50 points you must be not a bad player <!-- s -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif[/img]<!-- s -->

[rikhardur]

Siena 103 Capo d'Orlando 46 <!-- s -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/ohmy.gif[/img]<!-- s -->

Summing up Capo d'Orlando shot 20% 3pt, 30% FG and had 18 TOs. Where was defense and accuracy? A score difference record in Lega?

[TalkBasket]

Looks like a score from women basketball. We often see such results in women league here because some teams are much weaker. Although in LKL there were a few games like that when Rytas or Zalgiris played against bottom clubs.

[AdaS234]

MdP will win again <!-- s -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif[/img]<!-- s --> they are the best team in Italy
