CSKA on the second place
After the great game against Benetton the leaders of CSKA could not recover to the final fighting. The game of the starting five which is does not changes all these days was not good from the early beginning. The advantage of Montepaschi started to enlarge too fast. For a long time only Marcus Brown scored points for the team (16 points in first 25 minutes). The third quarter was over with score 60-44. Nevermind the army players could show their character. They could cut the final advantage of Montepaschi to 6 points:

CSKA will play in the next friendly game against Snaidero. The day before the junior squad of the army team will play against the junior team of Udine.

Greek playmaker of CSKA Theodoros Papaloukas who has broken his nose in the game against Partizan started his practices in the common group in the special mask. Probably he will miss the game against Snaidero.
