THE TAKE

Budcnost M:TEL and Budivelnik square off this Tuesday two victories apart in the Group C Standings after both started the regular season with a win. While Budivelnik never stopped and at 3-0, can stamp its Last 16 passport with a win in Montenegro, KK Buducnost is coming off back-to-back losses, the last one on Budivelnik’s home court, and has seen Gran Canaria slide into the second spot. The Week 3 meeting was an excellent chance for Buducnost, but Zach Morley scored 18 of his 25 points in the first half and Andy Betts tallied 7 of his 11 in the closing minutes to keep Budivelnik undefeated. Forward Vladimir Dragicevic, the Eurocup’s third leading scorer with an average of 19.5 points per game, paced Buducnost with 14 points and Bojan Dubljevic added 11, but forward Marko Scekic only produced 2 points in 10 minutes and the Marko Simonovic and Marko Popovic combined for 5 and 10 boards in 40 minutes of playing time. Surely Lamayne Wilson had something to do with that, as the Budivelnik forward was a force once more with 16 points and towering Michalis Anismovas provided 11 from the center spot. Aleksej Nesovic and Nikola Otasevic will share the playmaking duties for the hosts, as the emphasis will again be on Dragicevic’s offensive skill set to counter the visitor’s depth, with Denis Ikolev and Denys Lukashov also on hand and capable of posting big scoring numbers in the visiting side. Along with Simonovic, guards Vladimir Mihailovic and Gintaras Kadziuliscan can certainly hit threes for Buducnost, and that would definitely help on offense, especially if Dubljevic establishes some sort of a post presence inside.

"We are all familiar with the quality of our opponents and after the victory over Krka in NLB league, we are in a good moment. Certainly, the quality of Budivelnik roster, staff and investment deserves respect, but we will give all of ourselves to enter a new victory and rejoice our fans. It would be nice to see them tomorrow night is over because we need them and with them would be easier to triumph."'

"This is a great victory for us, and I want congratulate my players. We defeated Budivelnik, who entered the season with ambition and a big budget. After the first match they probably did not expect such a game today. Although the chance to pass the second round is very small, I'm glad we beat them by15. They had good rebounding and nothing more."
BERROCAL, JOSEP MARIA
Budivelnik
"We lost our identity. We had lost two of our tallest players, and we played with no team defense, no intensity. You can’t win the game with only 55 points."
