Game 2 of the playoff finals belongs to Trapani, who did well to stick to a Fortitudo that was significantly better than game 1 and put the arrow in the final 5 minutes. Trapani’s 68% from 2 was decisive, compared to Fortitudo’s 44%, although the latter dominated in offensive rebounds (14 to 6)
DRILLS SHARK
ALIBEGOVIC 7.5: he is decisive for his team, with very heavy baskets in the key moments, he finishes with 17 points and 10 rebounds
GENTLE 7: the breakthrough he suffers at the end from Bolpin should be shown in museums, it always proves precious
HORTON 7: always a factor under the basket, in fact his absence is felt when he is on the bench, he finishes with 6 points and 12 rebounds
MOLLURA 6: Not yet a factor in the series
NOTEE 8: MVP also in a game where he was left empty in the first quarter. He takes the team on his shoulders in the final and finishes it off with 3 glacial free throws
IMBRO 6.5: only 3 points, but very heavy in the economy of the match, a lot of energy and good things
MARINI 6.5: Although 2 of 7 from three, his baskets are of important fundamentals
MIAN 6: his anonymous test
MOBIO 6: a lot of energy in the minutes on the pitch
PUGLIATTI: NEITHER
PULLAZI: NEITHER
ALL. DIANA 6.5: the team approaches the match poorly, adjusts their shot to stay in the wake and overtake at the end
FORTITUDO BOLOGNA
BOLPIN 6: excellent defense and important points, but at the end it stops until the breakthrough and the free throws which condemn Effe to defeat
INFANTELLI 6.5: high-level playmaking, with a series of noteworthy passages. Bad shooting
ACCOUNTS 6: he’s almost better at the back than in attack
OGDEN 7: there is a Fortitudo with and one without Ogden, and it shows when he leaves for 4 fouls. He tries in every way to take it back, but he too has to give up, despite the 16 points
FREEMAN 7.5: 19 points and 10 rebounds with a fever, always sought after by the white and blue attack and fundamental in defense
CLOTHES 6: scolded by Caja for a series of poor choices, scores an important triple in the first half and then disappears in the second
YOU SWEAR: NEITHER
MORGILLO 6: 4 consecutive points in the first half important for the team
SERGIO 6: a lot of energy on the pitch and important rebounds, but you can see that he has little confidence in attack
TAFLAJ 6.5: 5 very precious points from the bench, keeps Effe afloat with the entire second unit on the pitch
KUZENTSOV: NEITHER
ALL. CAJA 6: great initial approach and usual excellent defence. Forced to remove Ogden for fouls. Now he will have to ask for an even greater effort than him to at least extend the series. He ends with disagreements with president Antonini
