Today, on February 15, “Prometey” played the second within 48 hours home match. This time they fought against the club from the capital of Estonia “Tallinn Kalev/Aydentes”. Yet before yesterday’s confrontation with “Keila”, it was possible to assume that the coaching staff of the Ukrainian club will evenly share the playing time between the players. That's how it happened: only five out of ten players who came out to the court played more than 20 minutes, but less than 25. Therefore, it hardly makes sense to say that “Prometey” will approach today's match being tired. DJ Stephens had relax yesterday.
Already in the debut of the match, with two hits from the perimeter, DJ once again confirmed that he is in great shape. "Prometey" constantly led the score and won the first five minutes with a handicap of "+9" (17:8). At the same time, the opponent made much efforts not to let the hosts of the court go ahead, having managed several effective attacks and also successfully attacking from a long distance. However, Ronen Ginburg's team constantly dictated own conditions. During the quarter, they almost reached the mark of three dozen scored points, and DJ Kennedy distinguished with 5 assists in this game segment.
Our team’s rotation again was significant today. It created additional difficulties for the opponent. However, the club from the capital of Estonia could safely record the second 10-minute segment in their asset, winning it and in general keeping the intrigue in the match.
After the break, "Prometey" only had five minutes to kill it almost completely. Our team almost tripled their advantage (60:34). The opponent stopped coping with the speed of our team's players and could not find any arguments against the aggressive defense of "red and white". For the second time in the match, the Ukrainian club was just a little short of scoring 30 points in a quarter, having just 9 missed.
The final 10-minute segment, by and large, turned out to be a formality. “Prometey” could safely prepare for the next match. On February 17, within the LEBL, the best Ukrainian club will play on the road against the Estonian club "Tartu Ulikool Max & Morits".
