Dinamo is struggling, with matches against Aek and Tortona this week
The Sassari team has won only one match out of five so far
Small signs of growth here and there, but the team identity and homogeneity of condition are still far away.
An expected defeat arrived in Bologna but also the impression of a Dinamo that still needs a few weeks to understand if the group's chemistry can work.
The American McKinnier, who arrived a month ago, is still decoding Italian basketball. Guard Tyree and wing Charalampopoulos are clearly behind in physical form and this translates into forcing shots for the American and missed shots from preferred positions for the Greek.
Without these two certainties in attack, Bucchi's team is struggling, also because the defense has so far relied more on willpower than on well-oiled mechanisms and help.
The problem is that the October calendar remains busy: on Wednesday evening Aek Athens arrives at the PalaSerradimigni for the second round of the group stage. The advance against Tortona is always played at home on Saturday. The risk is that if a victory doesn't come, there will be a lack of enthusiasm that can lead Dinamo to performances superior to their current condition.
