Alimerka Oviedo basketball has closed the first stretch of the season with a heavy defeat at the home of Ureta Tizona Burgos. A 106-81 in which the Oviedo team has been overcome in a first half to forget: without energy, without legs or defense and poor decision-making. At half-time, 60-32 and the maximum for the locals.
The truth is that upon returning from the locker room the team has taken a step forward, showing a completely different face. Defending, being supportive in the effort and finding free shots. Thus, with Duscak at the controls, Lobaco, Amarante and Menuge scoring, the OCB has gone eleven points down to face the last quarter (80-69) in a quarter that they have won comfortably.
And when a comeback seemed possible, Lance Jones, with four consecutive triples each farther away, was in charge of cutting off any avenue of rebellion in El Plantío. The OCB couldn’t do much more and ended up taking a massive knee.
In this way, with three wins and eight losses, the team is in the group of the temperate zone of the classification and faces a week of break for the international windows. The next match will be at home, against Movistar Estudiantes, on December 1st.
Partials: 26/13, 34/19, 20/37, 26/12
