Again, it’s not that easy to switch quickly from the Fiba Europe Cup to the Basketball Bundesliga.
Göttingen – Especially since after the great 90:71 success against Keravnos BC, which one should not glorify too much against a “manageable” opponent, BG Göttingen now has important points at stake against the bottom of the BBL table on Saturday (6.30 p.m.). .
The Syntainics MBC Weißenfels has lost all five first division games so far – the often-quoted comparison could arise that ailing boxers are the most dangerous. There were two wins in the BBL Cup.
The third Euro victory was definitely good for the violets after the home defeat against Berlin two days earlier. Self-confidence should be restored so that temporary captain Mathis Mönninghoff (for convalescent Harper Kamp) & Co. can tackle the task in the Weißenfels town hall with concentration.
. The BG players: Fedor Zugic was the man of the past games for the Violets. He became the top scorer three times (20 points against Tbilisi, 21 against Berlin, 25 against Keravnos). The youngster (only 20 years old) from the German champions Ulm has already shown his skills several times.
Umoja Gibson is also turning out to be more and more of a quick starter and always coordinates the Violets’ build-up game perfectly. At his side, Deondre Burns showed for the first time with more concentration how valuable he can be.
The initially outstanding Bodie Hume (30 points against Crailsheim) and the Australian Grant Anticevich seem to have slipped into a small hole, whose sights in the last few games were not as sharp as before. Nevertheless, the duo is just as indispensable as the other BG players with the Latvian Karlis Silins at the top, who also has a good three-point throw in his repertoire as a center and big man.
At BG, center Philipp Hartwich is still missing from his former club’s game.
. The MBC players: Things should actually be looking up for the Wolves with the new, old coach Predrag Krunic. But the opposite is the case so far. In the first preparatory game in Halle/Saale, the BG played against the Wolves and won with the newly formed team 80:72.
Meanwhile, the MBC has given the newly signed Diante Baldwin a contract until the end of the season; The working paper was originally supposed to end on November 5th. The contract with the Serbian Stefan Bircevic was terminated due to injury. Most recently we heard from Weißenfels that they were looking for a new player. Stephon Jelks is back after a calf injury.
. Statistics: The MBC scores the second fewest points per game (77.6), only Würzburg scores fewer (74). The MBC is top when it comes to turnovers: only 12.6. Martin Breunig is the best scorer with just 11.8 points per game. (haz/gsd)
