BC "TalTech/OPTIBET" (Tallinn, Estonia) - BC "Prometey" 82:115 (15:29, 18:32, 28:30, 21:24). January 6. 18:30. Latvian-Estonian basketball league Pafbet. Tallinn (Estonia). Arena "TalTech Spordihun". Broadcast - "DIVISPORT BASKETBALL" YouTube channel.
BC "Prometey": Kennedy* (13), Balvin* (17 + 7 rebounds), Sanon (9 + 6 rebounds + 9 assists), Lypovyy (6), Lukashov, captain (5), Stephens* (12 + 7 rebounds + 3 assists), Clavell* (10 + 3 assists), Tkachenko (12), Dickey (4), Petrov (10 + 7 rebounds + 3 assists), Klassen* (17 + 4 assists).
“Prometey” finished four-match road series within LEBL, which started in the last week of 2022, with a road match against BC “TalTech/OPTIBET”.
We have already met with the team of Tallinn Technical University: a month ago, we played a match of the regular season first round and that time we also celebrated our victory 89:67.
Today, our rival played the third match within three days: yesterday “TalTech” lost to “Siauliai” and the day before yesterday to “Budivelnyk”. It was the ENBL stage, which was hosted by “TalTech”.
Thus, considering the fatigue of our opponents, 115 points to their basket are not surprising. However, the quality of obtaining these points is really impressive.
“I don’t know what the reason for so low percentage of free throws is (53%), but I know that we must improve this figure”, - told us Ivan Tkachenko after the previous game. And it was improved to about ideal one – players almost did not miss from the foul line (95.5%).
51.4% of three-point shots are also satisfying. What is even more satisfying – only 5 losses during the entire game.
“TalTech” was not in lead in this match even once. So, the 17th victory of Ronen Ginzburg’s team was easy and comfortable. Our guys are turning back with good feelings to Riga, where they will get ready to the EuroCup match. The tournament resumes after the Christmas break. We play on January 11 in Panevezys with the local "Lietkabelis".
