After the ninth place in the last championship, “Granada” headed for the European cups, for which in the summer the team was headed by Robert Moreno. The 44-year-old Spanish specialist was called upon to improve the productivity and return of players, while the management completely forgot to invest in new players. The start of the new championship brought disappointment. Over the 14 rounds of the current championship the “red-whites” scored only two wins and six draws, which corresponds to 12 points and 16th position in the standings. The team’s performance is the same as that of Cadiz from the relegation zone. After the victory over Levante (3:0), the Narsids suffered two defeats in a row and in the last away round they shared the tournament points with Athletic (2:2). The attack line differed on average once per game, while the hosts conceded 22 times. The start in the Spanish Cup was powerful, where the Andalusian club smashed Laguna to smithereens (7:0). Today will not be able to enter the field Diaz, Duarte, Lozano and Ruiz, who has a knee injury.
Spurs began to show signs of life, which cannot but rejoice, but how long they will be enough is unknown. Gregg Popovich continues to adhere to his tactics from defense, however, he has no other choice. There is no point in attacking without an optimal line-up. San Antonio recently surprised Boston on the road, because they quite competently dealt with the Celts (96-88) and then the victory over Washington (116-99) followed. The Spurs felt confident in their actions and played the first number, which is why the defense of the capital club could not stand it. Now the team sets itself the goal of continuing the streak of victories.
