The Euroleague table is still gibberish with a Baskonia dreaming in the Top-8 after the elimination of the Russian teams and the loss of value of the results against them. That circumstance has come in handy for Spahija’s team since they had lost all they had against the Slavs.
But, although he adds victories (now he is one) the rest of the close rivals have less disputed clashes. Efes can no longer be reached but Bayern, Maccabi and Monaco can. The team from the Principality is only one win away and is this Friday’s rival. It will be the reunion with Mike James.
The Baskonia have 10 wins and 15 losses but they are having a good run. Victories like Wednesday’s against Fenerbahçe lift anyone’s morale. “We are playing with character, which is the club’s motto. We have to continue along these lines”, assured Arturs Kurucsreference of the effort and sacrifice in this club.
Neven Spahija’s men have traveled to Montecarlo and will return after the game as there is another first class challenge on Sunday. They will play at 5 in the afternoon in Miribilla against Surne Bilbao Basket, which has left the bottom of the table and is even flirting with getting closer to the Playoff positions. Inglis is signing dream numbers in recent crashes.
