Olimpia hit the ground running, started with a 10-0 run, built a huge early lead and never let Fortitudo back in the game. “We had a great start, very active, we moved the ball, shot at a very high percentage and 29 assists are obviously a beautiful number,” Coach Ettore Messina said at the end. Olimpia hit the first nine threes, scored 59 points in the first half, when the lead reached 26 points, in the second half it led by as many as 31 points and closed the game winning 98-72 in spite of sharing minutes among all the players. Sergio Rodriguez, who had 11 points and seven assists in the first half, started the second half, committed the third foul, went to the bench and never had to return, for example. Olimpia made 12 threes in the first half. The hottest guy was Kevin Punter, who had 22 points in the first half, finished with 25, made eight of his 10 attempts, including six threes. Michael Roll went 4-for-4 from three-point distance, Sergio Rodriguez was 3-for-3. Olimpia as a team made 21 threes, a club-record in the Italian league, on 31 attempts.
