THE TAKE

A final battle to reach the Turkish Airlines Euroleague regular season starts in Charleroi, Belgium, where Spirou Basket hosts Alba Berlin in Game 1 of their Qualifying Rounds series on Tuesday. The winners of this Round 3 series will reach the Euroleague regular season and the loser will play the 2010-11 Eurocup. Both teams come off respective Round 2 thrilling series that went down to the wire. Spirou knocked off mighty Unics on a late three-pointer by Chris Hill. Alba needed a clutch triple by Julius Jenkins to edge Hemofarm Vrsac down the stretch. The matchup between Hill and Jenkins may well be one of the keys to this series. Spirou has a lot of fire powers at both wings with Hill and scoring guard Joseph Gomis. Dwayne Broyles offers court sense and defensive skills to the mix. Broyles is set for a big defensive battle against Jenkins. Brian Greene could make the difference at small forward with his versatility and deep range. Gomis will not have it easy against Immanuel McElroy, whose quick first step and all-around defensive skills could make the difference in this matchup. Yassin Ibdihi may see extended playing time to go against Greene. Lucca Staiger and Bryce Taylor provide intensity and deep range off the bench. Spirou's main concern will be stopping Marko Marinovic, in great shape recently. Marinovic can break any game with his leadership and explosiveness, becoming a perfect complement for backup point guard Hollis Price, an old-school playmaker with court sense and poise. Marinovic faces Demond Mallet, an experienced playmaker made for this kind of games. Meanwhile, Price faces a physical test against Justin Hamilton. Brent Wright will be Spirou's main reference in the paint due to his power, strength and post skills. With Christophe Beghin sidelined, Andre Riddick and Greene will share extended playing time around the baskets. Riddick will have to use his defensive skills against Patrick Femerling. Meanwhile, Wright has to give his best against Derrick Allen. Tadija Dragicevic could be the X-factor for Alba in this series, as he can open the court with his three-point shots and slash from the high post. Expect intensity, drama and a lot of action at the Spiroudome on Tuesday.

Ioann Iarochevitch and free throws by Mallet brought Spirou within 20-24 after 10 minutes. Mallet scored again early in the second quarter but a layup by Jenkins and a jumper by Allen kept Alba ahead at 23-28. Broyles sank a shot that Marko Marinovic bettered with a three-pointer. Broyles insisted with a driving layup, igniting an 8-0 run in which Gomis and Wright sank free throws to give Spirou a 33-31 edge. McElroy silenced the crowd with a jumper and free throws by Hollis Price and Dragicevic gave Alba a 35-37 lead at halftime.

Mallet followed a jumper with a layup-plus-foul immediately after the break, good for a 40-37 Spirou lead. A jumper by Gomis soon made it a five-point game, 44-39. Price struck from downtown and a power layup by Allen tied it at 44-44. Allen stayed unstoppable down low but Gomis followed a layup with a triple for a 49-49 tie.

A triple by Greene ignited a 7-1 run that Hill capped with free throws to seal the outcome of this game, 80-71.
