Having secured a spot in the second round of the Europa Cup with one match to spare, Dinamo is preparing for a fiery midday match against Trento on Sunday at the PalaSerradimigni. The Sassari-based team is desperate for a win to move away from the bottom four tied on two points.
Trento is a team that started off strong but has suffered three straight defeats. That's no reason to underestimate the match, however, as point guard Desure Buie emphasizes: "We faced Trento in preseason (a loss to Sassari) and we know what to expect. Against an opponent like this, you need 40 minutes of intensity."
Particular attention should be paid to the point guards and guards: the Steward-Jones-Battle trio combined for 45 points with excellent two-point percentages, in addition to providing assists and rebounds. "Their guards are very talented, so we'll have to try to limit them and take advantage of any mismatches that arise."
