Venezia – the most oscillating team in Italy
The yesterday game between Venezia and Varese brought to light a truth about the lack of constancy of the home side squad. Umana Venezia is a big team and they had great results during the last years, including finals andwinning the Italian championship, but they are very oscillating. One day they can beat Bologna by 20, Pesaro with 35 or Avellino by 30, the next day they can lose at home with weaker teams like Varese.
To score 61 points at home is embarrassing for any team, under any circumstances, but when you have the best roster and rotation after Olimpia Milano in Legabasket it is even more unacceptable. How to shoot just 24 times from 2 points range and 40 times from the arc (with extremely poor percentage) when you have dominants players in the paint like Gasper Vidmar, Michael Watt or Austin Daye. And to get beaten by a team who has just 6 decent players rotation? And when their main center, Tyler Can is undersized (2,03 m) compared with your giants? This is unbelievable!
