Tenth place is safe, ninth still within reach if Tortona always loses. Dinamo plays more for pride than for a real objective on Sunday in Trento starting at 11:30 after the game was moved due to Saturday's funeral for Pope Francis.
Point guard Justin Bibbins admits: "Regrets? We saved the season at the most important time, if there was another month of games today we would have the potential to make the playoffs."
Five victories enclosed by two defeats in the sprint, Banco di Sardegna is truly a different team but even in Trento it will have to do without the tall Thomas, struggling with a physical problem that requires caution in recovery.
In the first leg Trento conquered the PalaSerradimigni 84-81. Another of those defeats in the sprint that leaves some regrets.
