L’Olimpia Milan dedicates the Scudetto to Ezio Giani, for 11 years on the club’s healthcare staff and passed away at the end of January. Already after the victory in Game 4, Nik Melli had said to Dazn: “I would like to dedicate this Scudetto to Ezio Giani, the historic doctor of Olimpia Milano who passed away some time ago. I dedicate it to him and his family, we have it always thought of. He was always a polite, respectful figure, always with the right words. A person of considerable importance. It was a great loss for us.
The message from Olimpia Milano:
“Dear Ezio,
We wanted to tell you that we did it. We did it one more time only you weren’t with us.
It would have been nice to take the usual photo, hug each other. We have felt your absence on “your” trips. The seadas wasn’t as good in Sassari and the walk through the trees in Treviso seemed less fun.
We would have liked to “put you in the middle” at the table one last time like when – to make you lose your proverbial aplomb – we counted your calories to tell you that it wasn’t nice for a nutritionist like you to eat like this. You got angry laughing, you got offended joking. It was a great championship. But without you. Yes, wherever you are, Ezio, you will already know it. When in doubt, we wanted to tell you anyway. We made it.
PS If you can, reassure others, those who preceded you or reached you. Calm down and celebrate with Franco, Giando, Bruno, with Professor Sereni, and if you can also with Cedro.”
