For the 18th game of the Euroleague, Unics welcomes Efes in the Basket Hall Kazan
The Onyx was amazing in the first 3 ten minutes in Barcelona against Barcelona but in the end he did not manage to leave with the victory, lost in overtime 111-109. It even got to the point of leading by 20 points, but the Spaniards in the last ten minutes individual score 37-20 turned the match around and sent it to extra time. In the extra five minutes he had the opportunity in the last shot to get the victory but Lorenzo Brown's shot was missed and so he suffered defeat after 3 consecutive victories.
Despite its defeat, however, it remains one of the most formed teams in the tournament and with a record of 10 wins and 7 losses is in 6th place in the standings.
On Sunday it was defeated again, this time for VTB by Zenit in St. Petersburg with 97-81.
Efes saw the specter of defeat with her own eyes last week against in the Red Star but finally prevailed 84-83. A mediocre appearance for the Turkish team, they were back in the score for most of the match but with a counterattack in the last minutes they managed to "steal" the victory thanks to Mitsic's accurate shots two seconds before the end of the match.
It is obvious, however, that Efes does not resemble last year's team, continues to have ups and downs in its performance and after 17 matches counts 9 wins and 8 losses.
On Saturday for the Turkish championship it was again mediocre with the result that it lost to Gaziantep at home with 83-93.
Very interesting match between two very good and spectacular teams. Unics has been in excellent condition for a long time and shows that it has all the backgrounds to enter the playoffs of the tournament. Efes for its part continues to be unstable and is expected to have a difficult task tonight to get the victory. I think it is worth betting on the most trained team and the line of 157,5 points.
