Basketball history will be on display tomorrow at the Assago Forum, where Olimpia will celebrate the 90th anniversary of their first Scudetto. At 4 p.m., they'll also face Dinamo, who still need one or two wins to mathematically secure their Serie A spot.
On paper, the odds are pretty much closed, although the home team could be affected by their Euroleague efforts in Turkey, where they lost 79-75 to Fenerbahce on Friday night. It's worth a try anyway, "but we have to play our best game in terms of intensity and physicality," warns the white-and-blue coach Veljko Mrsic.
Armani also includes former player Ousmane Diop, who has rarely played recently. Talent, physicality, and athleticism abound for Milan, who have nevertheless lost three times at home, the last two against Varese and Brescia.
For Banco, this is a test ahead of next Sunday's relegation clash against Treviso. This match should serve to improve the condition of Marshall, who returned last week after a three-month injury layoff, and Macon, who started well in the two matches but ended up declining.
