Boulazac Basket Dordogne had a slightly longer mini-truce than their opponent, Saint Quentin, they did not play last Tuesday against Tours because of players who tested positive for Covid19. Boulazac could not train at best and prepare in the best way for this resumption match, at the penultimate of the Pro B classification, in Saint Quentin.
Boulazac overtaken in the first two quarters
They were still on the bus! Nothing was going well at the beginning of this meeting, on the contrary even, the BBD was dominated in all the compartments of the game. The players of Saint Quentin, the Spaniard Zamora, author of 29 points and the French Lionel Gaudoux, author of 19 points , were the main architects of the local victory. Faster in counterattack, more aggressive in defense, and more present under the baskets, the basketball players of Saint Quentin largely dominated the Boulazacois and counted up to 30 points in advance.
The best for the BBD after the locker room
The depth of the bench on the Boulazac side will still speak and offer an unexpected return, the BBD even returning to 5 points from his opponent. The Saint Quentin players were tired, almost asphyxiated at the end of the match. Boulazac had the merit of coming back, but the damage was done in the first half. It is a big disappointment because we did not recognize the BBD of the last 8 days of the championship, but it is rather the BBD of the very beginning of the season that we had the impression of seeing again last night. It will be necessary to pull itself together quickly for the arrivals of Tours and the leader Saint Chamond at the Palio, Tuesday and next Friday.
