The mission of the CBBM in Caen, Saturday, promised to be complicated. And it was because Du’Vaughn Maxwell, hit in a knee during a shock Tuesday in Besançon, did not come into play and assisted helplessly in the sixth setback of his team. The fifth against a Top 5 club (see table below). If the rise is moving away for the men of Sébastien Lambert, everything is not to throw during this second confrontation against the Calvadosiens. Here are the tops and flops of this meeting against Caen …
TOPS
Moustapha Diarra
For 35 minutes, the pivot Moustapha Diarra was stuck with four interiors: Séraphin Saumont (17 pts, 6 rebounds for 22 of eval), the American Norville Carey (8 pts, 3 rebounds for 6 of eval), Luidgy Laporal and the imposing Moïse Diamé (10 pts, 15 rebounds for 27 of evaluations)… It makes some kilos on the back, but the Marseillais did well with 16 points, 7 rebounds, 6 faults caused for an evaluation to 13.
The stats of the Chartrains in Caen
Patrick Clerence
A week before Caen, the captain had left the Le Havre match limping, the victim of a sprained ankle. Absent in Besançon on Tuesday, Patrick Clerence was finally able to play his role on Saturday against the CBC, and rather well even. In the absence of Maxwell, he replaced his alter ego Diarra in the racket. Twice, he tried to bring his family back into the game, at the start of the 2nd (27-24) and 4th quarter (72-65). With 13 points, 6 rebounds and 7 fouls provoked, Cap’tain Courage did the job.

Olivier Romain
It’s been a while since we’ve seen such an enterprising Olivier Romain. The leader of the CCBM was present from the start by putting his people on the right path (0-4) and was the author of an incredible basket from the midfield allowing his team to come back four lengths from Caen to the begins from the 4th act. With 15 points, 7 assists, he was the best Chartrain (21 to evaluate) on Saturday.

THE FLOPS
Yann Siegwarth
If his friend Kamel Ammour saves his game a little on the rebound (11 swallowed, but only 6 points including 0/4 to 3 points with the greatest playing time), what about the performance of Yann Siegwarth? With a 2/9 on shots, 2 assists, 4 lost balls, the former player of Gries played his worst score (with that against Saint-Vallier) of the season. If he scored 9 units, until the fourth quarter, he had scored only one point. Defensively, he failed to muzzle the Caennais Thibedore (23 pts, 24 to evaluate), the man of the match.

The bench
In that top game, Caen played nine to seven and used twice as many bench players as Chartres. With Maxwell and Sencanski in bulk, without forgetting Éric Bosc, Sébastien Lambert only had Ugo Doumbia (18 years old) and Christopher Békoulé (24 years old) at the end of the bench. The first discovers the N1 this season at post 1. As for the second, he is struggling to recover from a knee injury and the winger is very far from his level of last year.
