Federico Elias
Weber Bahia Basket U22 teamr and Atenas Cordoba present the series for permanence in the highest instance of Liga Nacional. Weber Bahia Basket U22 teamr bet on their young players, and Atenas confronted the restructuring with the loss of their top leader: Osvaldo Arduh.
For Bahia the negative mark has been historic ( 4-34) and the only way to save things is not to lose the category. They were the team with the most points received ( 90.3) and the one who had the least ball robbery. It is a young team that can run the court and make play orderly, but that is lost by inexperience quickly, is not constant and that can take its toll. On the other hand with Federico Elias (185-SG-99) assuming the leadership of the group ( 16.8 ppg, 3.1 reb and 1.9 apg) will be difficult the adventure. On the positive side of this whole storm: Bahia has a very talented group that in the long run can have a great team. But in the future. Laura Cors has taken a big step as a head coach in a professional men's team. Their pedagogy and guidance seem to help in the growth of boys.
Atenas gave the reins of the club to Cristian Colli He had to sail with the pieces that have emerged and handle the injuries. Josh Nzeakor (203-F/C-97, college: Lamar) has been the constant offensive piece and argument on the boards for the historic club ( 14.6 ppg and 6 rpg). Next to him there is a group of experienced players who can take advantage of these instances of the competition: Leonardo Lema (204-SF-98) , Gaston Cordoba (200-F-94) and Lucas Machuca (185-PG-92)
Weber Bahia Basket U22 teamr's lost the last 10 games.
Athens has won just 3 of the last 10.
The two clashes were won by Athens : December 23th 104-83 and March 18th 101-96. The latter match leaves many sensations that will not be easy the series, and that we will see two teams leaving the skin to manage to stay in the National League.
