Bertram Derthona's 2023 at the PalaEnergica Paolo Ferraris ends with a defeat: after a strong first half, the Bianconeri suffer breaks from Treviso, who first overtakes and then extends in the final period. Despite attempts to return, Derthona emerges defeated.
Very balanced first quarter at PalaEnergica: for Bertram the first five points go to the new Juventus player Ross, while Bowman leads the away attack. Zanelli's basket at the end set the score at 13-14 in the 10th minute. In the second quarter, Ross once again favored the Juventus lead (30-23), creating for himself and his teammates, before Nutribullet reacted and shortened the gap by finding several offensive protagonists. The absolute protagonist of the latest actions is Noua, who with six consecutive points scores the half-time lead 38-33.
Upon returning from the changing rooms, after a favorable start for the team coached by Ramondino, Nutribullet scored a break of 5-17 which was worth the overtaking and the lead (49-55). In the final, Baldasso and Obasohan bring Derthona closer (54-57 in the 30th minute). The visiting team made a new acceleration in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter, reaching +11 (55-66) in the 33rd minute with Olisevicius' basket, which forced coach Ramondino to stop the match. The favorable moment in Treviso also continues in the subsequent actions: the gap expands to 15 points (55-70) and, despite Derthona's attempts to come back, Nutribullet is clear, maintains the margin and wins 68-82.
Thus coach Marco Ramondino at the end of the race: “I believe that Treviso deservedly won, especially due to the growing second half that they played, unlike us. Our match was characterized by frenzy, especially from the second quintet: we managed this aspect quite well until we had energy, then towards the end we relied on very instinctive plays. The team's focus must be on ourselves, trying to give a bit of continuity, to find hierarchies and balances: today we have a different roster and players on the pitch compared to training sessions, so we need to be in the gym with the same group of players for a while to give us continuity. At this moment we don't have some aspects of mechanisms and knowledge among the players that lead us to make instinctive plays. Ross only had one training session with the team, so any consideration may be superficial: he still brought an excellent attitude and energy. Treviso was very good in the final to exploit all 24 seconds by finding the key players, at a time when our energy was at its lowest.".
