Series tied 0-0
It seems home advantage is not important in this LBA Playoffs. Venezia has a good record (4-1) at PalaTaliercio in this postseason, but Trento has a wonderful 4-0 in their away games!
We have no strong opinion about the lineups we will see tonight in Mestre. Anyway we guess Venezia coach Walter De Raffaele will choose Ariel Filloy, Hrvoje Peric, Michael Bramos, Jeff Viggiano and Esteban Batista as starting five, while Trento coach Maurizio Buscaglia is set to start the game with Toto Forray, Diego Floccadori, Dominque Sutton, Shavon Shields and Joao Gomes.
Truth to be told, we support Reyer Venezia and Italian bookmakers see home team as clear favorite for game 1, but you have to know that Italian bookmakers understand nothing about basketball. Nothing at all.
