When Brescia put its hands on the game, firmly, in the third quarter Ricci with two consecutive post-up plays allowed Olimpia to erase the eight-point deficit and going up atthe end of third. Again, Bilan with two straight three-point plays converted in the middle of the fourth gave Brescia a cushion of a six-point lead. Suddenly, Olimpia raised the intensity level of its defense, prevented Brescia from scoring for four consecutive possessions. Offensively, Bolmaro scored on a drive, LeDay on a drive, Shields from the line and Bolmaro again with another of his mid-range jumpers. Olimpia went up and essentially never relinquished the lead. When it counted the most, the defense step up big-time. It was a marvelous collective effort. Nico Mannion was the first to find his rhythm offensively with his quickness (15 points, five-for-six on twos; Stefano Tonut was a monster defensively; Leandro Bolmaro showed his two-way game (16 points); and Shavon Shields was like a surgeon stepping up when the team needed him the most (15 points, five-for-seven from two, two timely steals). Zach LeDay, clearly fatigued, was at his generous best, with 31 minutes on the floor, nine points and eight rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54387840002_f518a77fb2_k.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Shavon Shields<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Playing on short rest, without Nikola Mirotic, with Shavon Shields in a regime of minutes restrictions, Olimpia used all its resources, physically and mentally, to find a way to defeat the league-leading Brescia on its home turf, 79-73.
