Monaco does not come out of its defeat in Berlin
After a brilliant start, ASM has won just one of its last eight Euroleague matches.
Monaco suffered a third consecutive defeat in all competitions in Berlin against the Alba (94-82), Wednesday of the 17th day of the Euroleague. It is also the third loss in four games led by Sasa Obradovic, the successor to Zvezdan Mitrovic. The Roca Team once again conceded a lot of points but it was their muddled attack that allowed Berlin to stand out in the second quarter (17-9).
First following of the Monegasques (14th) in the standings, the Germans (15th) started 13 points the last ten minutes in advance and ended the revolt of the Principality briefly returned to two lengths (76-74). A three-point shot from Israeli Yovel Zoosman, who had taken the defensive rebound, put an end to the hopes of reversal of the match. Monegasque best scorer, Mike James (25 points, 8 assists), on the other hand, lacked skill behind the arc (1/6 to 3 pts).
With three victories less than Anadolu, eighth, who occupies the last qualifying place for the play-offs, ASM is left behind in the race for the finals, its only way to find the C1 next year. To hope, the club of the Rock must extricate itself from its spiral of defeats. He has won only one of his last eight Euroleague games: it was against the red lantern Kaunas.
