The defeat is not a surprise, given the 4 absences . The performance is. Don't be fooled by the final score of 90-111 against Napoli (HERE THE NEWS) , because in the 28th minute Dinamo was -27 and had only scored 54 points, making a titanic effort to find the way to the basket.

Coach Piero Bucchi admitted at the end of the match: «We are missing three players, we must have the mentality to adapt to the absences. Frankly , I didn't expect a defensive approach like this after the good performances in pre-season ."

The defense was not very aggressive and immediately gave Napoli confidence, who responded with an out of the ordinary performance in three-point shooting: 17/32. Not that the guests found any particular resistance for two: 21/32 is 65.6%.

The reality is that even with more malice on the pitch, a Dinamo with such a short roster is condemned to struggle with everyone and risk losing a lot. The real question is: can at least one of guard Tyree and forward Charalampopoulos return as early as this week. For tactical reasons, the Greek is needed more than the American, because Charalampopoulos is the only other shooter besides Kruslin.
