Olimpia defeated Red Star on its home court 71-67. It is the fourth road win of the season and improved Olimpia\u2019s record away to 4-4 which is more than good. Red star was the hottest team in the league, unbeaten since Coach Dusko Ivanovic took over and riding a six-game impressive winning streak with many games won in the fourth quarter often coming back furiously. Olimpia built a huge lead again, 18 points in two different moments in the third quarter, had a lot of troubles and offensively the sharp execution of the first half was nowhere to be found in a crazy environment. But when it had to win the game, Olimpia worked perfectly. A textbook execution led to Billy Baron\u2019s three to push back Red Star\u2019s rally and opened a five-point margin again. After Nedovic amazing three from nine meters with 29 seconds left, Naz Mitrou-Long was fouled and made the free throws that closed the deal. Olimpia relied on its defense a lot. During the first four minutes of the fourth quarter, the wall held Red Star scoreless. \u201cWe were tired and we missed some shots but our defense was exceptional and basically won the game for us before Billy\u2019s huge three,\u201d Coach Ettore Messina said. Baron led all the scorers (19 points) but everybody helped. Brandon Davies scored on a variety of ways and had seven assists too. Devon Hall set the tone early with 11 first half points, Melli (three steals) and Hines made some outstanding plays defensively and made two great putbacks, one each. Pippo Ricci was huge coming off the bench. He made his presence felt at both ends of the floor. Finally, Naz Mitrou-Long made the clutch free throws at the end.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52565727144_c5ffa83049_k.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Billy Baron<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The streak is broken, the nightmare is over.
