Bologna –<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Interviewed at the Media Day before the LBA Finals UnipolSai 2024, Achille Polonara presented the challenge that will be played starting Thursday against EA7 Emporio Armani Milano<\/strong>: \u201cWe know very well that it will be a very complicated series. We have a small advantage: we will play the first two games in front of our audience, but that does not take away from the fact that it will be a very tough series. We will have to take the field from the first minute of Game 1 because every game is crucial for us. We have to restart from our fourth game with Venice.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n What is one player Achilles would take away from Olimpia?<\/strong> \u201cIn every one of their matches there is a different protagonist and right now it is the Italians who are making an important contribution. I think Melli is a key player on which the whole team revolves. There is not a big difference between us and them, and I think in the end the strength of always staying there with the head will make the difference.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Polonara has won national titles in Spain, Turkey and Lithuania but still lacks the Italian Scudetto<\/strong>: \u201cI’m also here for that. Winning would mean closing in the best way a season that had not started well for me because of my health problem. Now things have taken the right turn and I believe there are the conditions to be able to take what I am missing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
