Nothing is going well at Boulazac Basket Dordogne. The team is diminished, amputated by several major players, like its leader Nic Moore. The BBD had to do without the services of Cysauskas, Foulland and Tchouaffé. They still missed a lot this evening in Nikola Antic’s squad to offer better resistance against Evreux.
Absences from Boulazac which still weighed tonight
It was therefore with a much reduced bench that Boulazac appeared on the Palio floor against Evreux. Quickly the ébroïciens give rhythm to the meeting and know some great successes to win the first quarter time 25 to 19. The tone is set, Evreux came to win and Boulazac must offer the best possible opposition. Not easy, when you are deprived of your major assets. Even if Quentin Serron, Luc Loubaki and Ivan February performed well, it wasn’t enough. Still too much waste and a lack of address. At the break, Evreux went to the locker room with a 6-point lead, 37-43.
Some players still too little influence in the game
Jules Rambaut is hard to see, he is in doubt and fails to regain his quality of play after his long absence. Nicolas De Jong and Olivier Cortale were not in a great evening. It is becoming urgent to react, because the Boulazac Basket Dordogne has just lost twice, in quick succession, at home, and against teams ranked behind them. But even worse, Boulazac lost the point average over Denain, and over Evreux this evening. It will be necessary to make a perilous trip next Saturday to Chalon sur Saône, to the second place. It is a fight for the maintenance that the BBD seems to start from this evening.
