Two defeats in a row is enough to force any promotion candidate to respond as quickly as possible. Even in case of urgent necessity to do so without delay. In this context, this Saturday was appointed from Insolac Caja 87 in the suite … Bisuerga (19 hours, LaLiga Plus app), although the years have passed and been affected by the evil of leaks, it still retains the aura of the ACB Stadium that remembers, similar to what happens with the San Pablo winger, much better times around the orange ball. The present is less rosy for him UEMC Basketball Valladolidwho were relegated last season and now, with a new project, started at a good pace, with six partial wins and one defeat in the seven matches he played.
He has one match less, yes, the one suspended from the fifth day against Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa due to Leaks In Bisuerga. This week, in fact, the match phase was about to end, and an alternative route was even prepared in Valladolid, Pilar Fernández Pavilion, with a much smaller capacity, but fortunately it could be held at the team’s home. White violet. The match will be a test to measure the state of health of Insolak Kaja 87 and, above all, his ability to correct himself and respond after the FIBA broke two combined defeats to Leonesa (80-92) and Ponferrada (78-88).
Two setbacks with mitigation of losses (the second was lost Yankovic Having to travel to his country for a personal matter) exposed the weaknesses of a team weakened in matches to the point that its defense loses momentum. this Box 87 It is a block designed for another trainer Adria Alonso He tries to take the field of defensive sacrifice as a leitmotif in his matches. An idea that quickly gained popularity and covered up the team’s shortcomings, especially in direction and outside shooting, but that vanished in the two aforementioned setbacks. So much so that the club moved its token on the market board to search outside the much sought-after perimeter bishop, to exchange one rook for another: he left Okaforwho performed below expectations, and the arrival of Walter Junior Cabral, an experienced striker born in Madrid, aged 30, an international with Guinea and well experienced in the FEB categories.
It will be enough for him to be strong in both episodes, close the rebound and score a hat-trick to improve the performance of his predecessor, who has no choice but to take over as successor to Caja 87 in the first reset of the team that has been completed so far with the signing of Nikola Rakocevicwhich he also traveled to ValladolidWith a temporary contract (and the option to continue). The 34-year-old, 1.90m tall Montenegrin has extensive experience in the FEB categories, especially in LEB Oro, and knows the city since he played in the World Championships. Real Betis basketball A few seasons ago. He also spent last season in Cáceres with Adria Alonso.
Garvin Clark moment
To sharpen the contour, we also rely on Garvin Clarkwho was in a slump for several games and was released from his team, the Bahamas. In the defeat of the Caribbean team against Canada (94-88), the green and red duo stood out with 20 points, 4 three-pointers, 2 rebounds, 13 assists, and an efficiency/rating of 31 points. He is not asked to provide this level in every match with Kaga 87, but he is asked to be a reference and even a differential at times, not to shake his hand, to shoot the ball, and to be more precise in driving.
Any help would be little to counter this Valladolid He lost only one match… and that was at home to Ponferrada (67-89). He is averaging 82 points on 75-for-37% shooting from three, 33 rebounds and 14 assists. Statistically, their best guy is the point guard paw isern, Averaged 15 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 18 PIR. Iñaki Ordonez (13.7+6) and perimeter scorer Isaac Hani (15 points, 47% on 3-pointers) are the other most productive players on David Barrio’s team. By the way, Betis youth player Baloncesto plays in their ranks. Pablo Marin.
Since Valladolid is able to generate fire through its external and internal generators, Caja 87 will have to work hard on the defensive side with the desire to protect itself, similar to what it did in the first matches of the season, when it managed to stop several opponents to under 70 points. He’s not always required to adhere to this strictly, let alone against an opponent of Valladolid’s size, however Yes, he needs to rearm himself and find a mid-range performance that will allow him to be more stable in matches.avoiding those fluctuations that have hurt him so much recently.
