The spectators who came to the Palio this Tuesday, March 15, 2022 to attend this meeting of the 24th day of Pro B, are not ready to forget this first quarter when Boulazac Basket Dordogne completely missed out. A catastrophic start to the match which sealed the chances of the BBD for the rest of the meeting.
First quarter time lost 27-9 by the BBD
We did not recognize, this evening, at the Palio, the players who had won a few days earlier on the floor of the 2nd in Chalon sur Saône. This evening, Boulazac recorded the return of Baptiste Tchouaffé. Nana Foulland had already made her comeback in the previous match. But Boulazac was still without Moore, Cysauskas and even the sick Paul Billong. But absences do not explain everything. Boulazac has never been able to compete with Saint-Quentin. The visitors scored 6 award-winning baskets in this first quarter.
Boulazac defenseless, uninspired
When a team is in difficulty, it is through the collective that it can find its salute. But this Tuesday evening, powerless in defense, uninspired in attack, the BBD could never find the solution or solutions. The defense set up by Saint-Quentin foiled the Boulazac basketball players. Of course, there is the good outfit of Ivan Juillet, top scorer from Boulazac with 21 points scored, but the rest of the group was not up to scratch. 4 award-winning baskets for the BBD against 13 for Saint-Quentin. This heavy defeat is a concern for the rest and the end of the season. There are 9 games left, including 4 at home. There is an urgent need to react, because the BBD now plays its survival and its maintenance in Pro B and there is no longer any question of talking about play-off. Next match, March 26 at the Palio against Nancy.
