Here is the victory that is worth the mortgage on staying in Serie A. With a few too many thrills (+16 with less than three minutes to go) Dinamo beats Cremona 93-89 in front of a PalaSerradimigni in celebration. Sassari flies to +6 from the Lombards with 2-0 in direct confrontations,
Chronicle - Center Halilovic is still injured, but playmaker Weber makes his debut. Cremona gets off to a better start with great athleticism and speed: Willis (10 points) is uncatchable for both Fobbs and Tambone, the former Lacey player scores the triple for the maximum advantage for the visitors, 5-18 in the 6th minute. Coach Bulleri lowers and speeds up the quintet with Thomas as center and Veronesi as 4” and all three playmakers. Sassari runs, Thomas gets excited and with him Veronesi: 23-22 in the first quarter.
In the second quarter the orthodox quintet is recomposed and Cremona recovers and goes ahead: 25-27 at 14' with a Lacey triple. To stop the Cremonese escape attempt, the double play is still needed: 40-42 at halftime.
The beginning of the third quarter is a duel between Veronesi and Lacey, but the Italian wing scores 8 points: 51-49 at 23'. The balance remains and is broken at the last second of the fraction by Weber's first basket: a three-pointer for 68-65.
Last quarter - In the quintet with the two playmakers Weber becomes the protagonist and leads Banco to +10, with Cremona not scoring for almost three minutes. The lead reaches +16 with two and a half minutes to go: 91-75. The white-blues get their hopes up too early, Davis attempts a sensational comeback with three-pointers: 92-89 with less than five seconds, but with the ball for Dinamo. Foul on Cappelletti who only needs a free to secure success.
