Little things will matter if both teams continue to play at such a high level after a long, exhausting season. Nuances can decide this game today, in favor of or against – the coaches will also be responsible for this in large parts: “The marginalia are very small,” stated Iisalo on Friday evening after the final siren, and announced: “Now we will find the solutions and win game two.”

It will be exciting to see what kind of game will be played today: While the Big Men didn’t really get a chance in the first game due to foul problems, the more responsibility rested on the shoulders of the respective guards. However, should scratches and caboclo be able to contribute better, the dynamics should shift, especially in the zone more duels of the centers would then be expected.

The fortress on the Hardtberg was considered impregnable this season, and the Baskets were unbeaten in 21 games at national level. Until last Friday, in the first game there was a 79:73 defeat, but the duel was a worthy start to a series of finals and lived up to all expectations. The Swabians can head into the second game with a 1-0 lead and a strong performance, while the Champions League winners need to score today if they don’t want to have their backs completely against the wall in game three on Wednesday.

A win is a win, but a loss is just a loss. But the first game still had a kind of signal effect: The #Uuulmer seem to feel very comfortable in the role of outsider, as an underdog the big teams can be easily annoyed. Even before Bonn, ALBA Berlin and FCBB felt the effects. And as in the previous series, the Spatzen started with an away win and thus equalized the supposed home advantage of the favorites from Bonn.
