A 15 point late third-quarter lead was not enough, too. When the Partizan tsunami, in front of 20.000 people, hit, Olimpia didn\u2019t blink and succumbed, in the end 83-69.<\/strong> Olimpia led 60-45, moved the ball, hit the shots, grabbed the rebounds and was playing high-level defense. Looked pretty much in total control. But it took a couple of mistakes, a couple of big shots made by Kevin Punter, some free throws and everything changed. Momentum changed hands dramatically. \u201cWe are in Professor Nikolic country, and we did exactly like in his parable \u2013 Coach Ettore Messina admitted \u2013 We filled the buckets with a lot of milk and suddenly we kicked the bucket and spilled the milk over the floor. We played a beautiful game for almost 27 minutes. What we did in the last part of the third period is frustrating. As a team, we need to feel personally accountable for our actions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Olimpia took control of the game early, had an impressive first half. Shavon Shields hit five threes, scored 15 points, sustained by Maodo Lo, Nicol\u00f2 Melli energy and defense, Kyle Hines pride, and led by as many as eight points before closing the half up by five. In the third quarter, Olimpia was amazing for some minutes. Devon Hall dunked a missed shot; Nicol\u00f2 Melli hit a three; Kyle Hines hit a mid-range corner jumper. Shields made his free throws, Johannes Voigtmann hit a pair and the lead reached 15 points. Then everything finished. Partizan closed the quarter with a 16-2 run. Turnovers, silly fouls, bad shots followed. Partizan got a lot of confidence led by Kevin Punter and Zach LeDay, PJ Dozier in spurts. After three quarters the lead was reduced to one single point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53382579723_dc2ac1ae33_k.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Devon Hall&#8217;s thunderous dunk in the second half<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Right then, in front of a tough, impressive crowds, Partizan played with a lot of enthusiasm, hit a lot of shots, James Nunnally made two straight threes. Olimpia looked lost all of a sudden. Once Partizan took the lead, Olimpia was done. In the end, it was a punishing 83-69 loss. \u201cWe made poor decision down the stretch, obviously we don\u2019t have Mirotic, we don\u2019t have the point-man we are still looking for, but we have to improve, because we have become professional of throwing games away, teacher at mastering this skill. We need to improve,\u201d Coach Messina pointed out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>25-plus minutes of great team basketball were enough.
