A less negative day than it could have been, because despite the defeat suffered by Dinamo in Reggio Emilia (-26), the competitors for salvation did not take advantage of it.
Pistoia, despite having only three foreigners, surprised Naples. Scafati lost against Venice after extra time and Cremona was defeated in Brescia.
The Sassari team remains at +4 from the last trio. But it is still in crisis as evidenced by the poor balance: in the last seven games only one victory, that against Virtus Bologna weakened by the Euroleague commitments.
By now even the most diehard optimist must abandon any playoff ambitions for the Sassari team that shows a worrying mental and athletic fragility. Of the remaining 10 games, the team coached by Bulleri is called to win at least three and two must be against Pistoia and Cremona, otherwise it risks getting into serious trouble.
