Italian Cup: Brindisi can surprise Avellino
In the Italian Cup, one of the most attractive game will be the battle of Avellino with Brindisi. I think that Brindisi can surprise Avellino and win the game because:
- Avellino has just lost Patrick Young, their most important center. Demetris Nichols will be sidelined too and there are some injuries for the Italian players of Avellino
- Brindisi is one of the most solid teams in Italy and they are having a good period right now. The rotation is also larger than Avellino’s one. Let’s not forget that Brindisi won already this season against Olimpia Milano proving their extraordinary offense (101-92)
- Avellino has won just the game against Brescia (but everybody beats Brescia) from the last 8 confrontations in Legabasket and in Basketball Champions League
- If Brindisi will play a smart and organized run and gun, they can put Avellino in difficulty, especially with the fouls
