Victory or championship to save, at least in this first half of the season. On Sunday, the false newcomer Trieste arrives at PalaSerradimigni (19:30), which has put together a very good roster and is in fact sixth together with Reggio Emilia with 10 points, against Dinamo's 4.

Coach Nenad Markovic introduces the opponent: "We are facing a very good team that plays well and has many good players like Brown, Valentine and Ross. They have a lot of offensive talent and so we will have to control the pace of the game and the rebounds, and limit their transition."

Trieste scores 89 points on average, is first for blocks (4 per game) and is also on the podium for offensive rebounds (12) and assists (19).

Only success can give serenity to the Sassari ranking and keep the flame of hope alive to arrive among the first eight that compete in the Italian Cup. A new defeat would have devastating effects on the season, because one would have to think only about salvation and also about intervening on the team.
