LBA Finals, Sergio Scariolo feels like the challenger

Third consecutive final between Virtus Bologna and Olimpia Milano

On Friday, June 9, the LBA Finals begin at the Forum. Virtus Bologna takes on Olimpia Milano. The two championship battleships one against the other. The Scudetto is up for grabs. Scariolo, coach of the V Nere, knows perfectly well the strength of the biancorossi.

“Milan only great defense? If that were the case, we would have to pull out before starting the series because it is well known that in the playoffs defense is crucial. And then Milan also has a great offense, with an insane three-point potential against which we will have to elevate the defensive performance with all players to be able to compete at the highest level,” his words to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Vere Nere coach is lapidary about who the team to beat is: “We go into it with humility and ambition. Aware that the champions are those of Milan, we are the challengers.”
