The Pistoia Basket coach celebrates the fantastic achievement: «Giving our fans two matches at the PalaCarrara would be wonderful»
The dream has become reality. On the day the Pistoia Basketball obtains the 100th victory in Serie A1, the certainty of participating in the playoffs also arrives thanks to the home win of the Dolomiti Energia Trentino, ko 105-80. «I’m very happy for the boys – says an enthusiast at the end of the match Nicola Brienza – We deserved this achievement for how we have worked since August 16th. We wanted to reach the playoffs on our own merit, not necessarily hoping for favorable results from other fields. We will face this post season with the mentality of trying to win, then the first four have demonstrated that they have a championship of a completely different level compared to the rest of the A1 Series. Giving the Pistoia public two matches would already be a great thing.”
After the internal misstep against Brindisi last Sunday, there could not have been a better response from the red and whites. «The boys had a great sense of responsibility this week, giving everything in training to be ready for this match. They were really good at interpreting this match, following the game plan and eliminating all those situations that give Trento confidence – states Brienza – Beyond the points scored, there was great application in defense and mentally».

The Estra coach’s compliments to his boys continue. «It’s a great result for the club and for all the kids. We enjoy this moment. We have players who stand out for their quality and talent, but it’s the team that wins. And this team has never taken a step back. It’s a beautiful victory for our Italians, who are experiencing an adventure that perhaps they didn’t think they could experience, and for our Americans, who are demonstrating that they have quality and have the potential to have an important career.”
