Sassari has only one way to get over the disappointment of the defeat in the sprint against Aek Athens in the Champions League: beating Tortona tomorrow evening at the PalaSerradimigni starting at 8.30pm.

Coach Piero Bucchi presents the challenge to the team where the former Dowe went to play: «It's a match against a good team. We are trying to find our balance. We have made some improvements but we have to eliminate the dull moments, which are unfortunately normal with a team with 3/5 of the quintet that wasn't there in the preparation."

Tortona has only one more victory than Dinamo: it beat Brindisi 69-68 and achieved a great success against Varese 80-78. She was also about to overtake Milan: it was at a+4 with 100 seconds to play, but she was fooled.

For now, Banco has only one success of the season, the home one against Treviso. Coach Bucchi observes: «But the group is healthy, the boys want to work. Unfortunately we lack those certainties that must be built over time."
