As expected, Djokovic started the tournament in Rome with a confident victory. Moreover, the opponent was suitable. Salvatore Caruso certainly has some experience, but it was extremely difficult for him to oppose the first racket of the world. However, Djokovic did everything himself in the previous game. He won points and made mistakes by himself. For example, out of eight break points, Novak managed to realize only three. Thats not the best indicator for a world-leading tennis player, but the Serb has time to correct his mistakes and properly prepare for Roland Garros, which starts at the end of September.
The Hit is doing its job perfectly well, whereas it all started with a victory over Indiana in the first series of the playoffs. The next rival was Milwaukee, which was able to get only one victory and, first of all, it was the merit of Eric Spoelstra’s guys. In the East finals Miami faced off against Boston and showed that they are not going to give up the victory to anyone. The team felt the pressure from the Celtics, but they endured it as best as they could and then in overtime turned everything upside down and stepped forward (117-114). “Hits” fight to the last and such a team really deserves to fight for the championship, though now it is worth focusing on the confrontation with the “Celts”.
