CSKA vs Kalev. Does the Estonian grandee have a chance?
The VTB United League will soon finally determine the list of playoff participants, each team intends to break into the next stage of the competition. CSKA should not experience any problems with this, since he is located in close proximity to the top of the standings. The team looks traditionally powerful, destroying rivals on the home court (three wins and no losses). She will try to compete for first place in the regular championship.
Kalev has lost three of his last four matches and is not looking his best. He is located outside the playoff zone, from which he is actually only one victory behind. Therefore, for each new fight, the team goes to the limit of dedication and motivation. And any misfire will entail a decrease in the chances of continuing the fight for the title. On January 24 at, the rivals will meet each other on the floor of the Megasport Arena in Moscow.
CSKA issued a long winning streak, during which they literally destroyed all rivals in their path. But in the last round there was a most offensive defeat from Zenit with a score of 68:81. It was noticeable that the basketball players could not properly distribute their strength and emotions for two tournaments at once. There was a surge in the Euroleague, which should have significantly improved the standings of the squad.
But in the VTB United League, I had to actively rotate the line-up, try to come up with something both in attack and in defense of my own ring. But while the efforts of the reservists are far from always enough for the final victory, some performers frankly fail the games, show a terrible percentage of hits from the game. But the parquet of the home arena is simply obliged to make the basketball players give their last strength on the court.
Kalev
Kalev remains the top representative of Estonia. In the Latvian-Estonian Basketball League, the team has established itself in the leading group and looks just great. But we have to constantly analyze the results of the VTB United League, where the situation is much more complicated. There, the team with 3-6 statistics takes ninth place in the standings. He is located outside the playoff zone, but plans to return to the leading positions in the near future. In the meantime, the team continues to be in a fever - one can only dream of stability. On the road, the team scored only one victory with three defeats at once. Therefore, now the team will try to enter the parquet at the limit of motivation. Any next misfire will actually cross out the chances of getting into the playoffs. And it was definitely not part of the players' plans to finish the draw ahead of schedule.
