The debut of coach Piero Bucchi on the Sassari bench is already a crucial match for the run-up to the Final 8 of the Italian Cup. On Sunday at PalaSerradimigni (start at 19) Naples arrives, a different company from the one that the Bolognese coach led to win the Italian Cup in 2006 and that Dinamo faced in A2.

The coach who replaced Demis Cavina said: "We need to quickly find an identity to oppose solid opponents with a precise physiognomy."

Naples is a newly promoted of experience and talent. The arrival of the play-guard Jeremy Pargo in place of the starter Mayo has increased the offensive danger of Sacripanti's formation. Immediately 18 points and 5 assists for Pargo in the coup in Pesaro, fourth victory for the Neapolitans who have two points ahead of Banco and if they win they become almost unattainable.

Judging from the training Bucchi wants to use Gentile and Logan as play. The return of the Croatian shooter Kruslin increases the effectiveness of the Dynamo on the bow and hopefully also serves to grant more freedom to the Mekowulu center, which has been in decline for a few weeks. The Nigerian and Diop will face Zerini and the wings Lombardi and Parks, given the injury of the Elegar center, not yet replaced. Watch out also for guard Rich and winger McDuffie, who are close to 14 points each.
