PATRAS-VIRTUS 61-83
All easy, even too much, for Virtus on the field of the Greeks of Patras. Bologna takes the biggest success of this season in Eurocup by producing a solid game in defense and essential in attack. Without Belinelli and Teodosic, the latter left at home to cure himself of an ailment, and with the return of Hervey, the team of coach Scariolo quickly takes over the situation with the energy of Cordinier, the readings of Hackett and the usual eclecticism of Weems . After a first extension at +11 and the break at +7, the Italian champions break in the third quarter by raising the defensive wall and sharing the attack well with all the quintets: quickly the black V makes its way against the modest Promitheas of the former Gaddy (in Virtus the season of the unfortunate relegation) and of the former Fortitudino Hunt. At the third siren on +24 (partial 32-15) the ninth victory in the group is on file. The goal now is to move up to fourth place in order to have the advantage of the home factor in the round of 16.
