Bologna –
With JL Bourg the Segafredo’s adventure in Europe starts again from home, after the break, challenging those perilous and far away corners that only the cup opponents can offer.
In the last one at Ekinox against Buducnost, without Hugo Benitez and Eric Mika, Bourg suffered the few centimeters and the less athleticism in almost every position to be able to strike the Montenegrin players. However, Laurent Legname’s men kept their opponent in the water with over 30 minutes of iron and fire, only collapsing in the final. The 2 out of 8 in its current Eurocup pictures a group that suffers everything and more from the field (49,7% conceded, 18th) but that does a serious and clean job from the arc (41,5%, second). The just 18,5 fouls drawn are the serene progression of a not too stinging team, last of the lot, leaning on the USA guard C.J. Harris, who opens the pyrotechnic corner with 16,8 points in 26 minutes, the Nigerian Rasheed Sulaimon with his 13,2 points in 33,6 minutes and on the wing Eric Mika, 208 cm from 5,5 rebounds, at the moment however in the pits. On the booklet of this maturity exam, Bourg is not signing good marks even in PRO A, twelfth with a 7-8 record, denuding its current precarious competitiveness.
