ABA Adriatic league 2013-14, Game 5 recap

aba adriatic league

After five played games in regular season in ABA Adriatic league, there are no more undefeated teams as Cibona topped Cedevita and stopped their winning streak.

At the bottom of standings nothing new as Union Olimpija is still without win and they continued its terrible losing streak and reach 0-5 record.

Sad news for Union Olimpija fans, and from this stand point I don’t see how they can get out of this trouble without significant changes in roster or even change of coach.

Cibona – Cedevita 66-51

Finally, after four wins in a row, Cibona wins over Cedevita in Croatian derby and stopped their winning streak. In good game, Cibona played better and deserved this win. Cibona improved to 3-2 record, until Cedevita dropped to 4-1. Marko Tomas got badly injured at this game, and it is big question when he will be back on the court for Cedevita.

Zadar – Mega Vizura 75-81

Despite lead in first three quarters, Zadar failed in great chance to beat Mega Vizura and improve its record. Mega Vizura played well and had enough patience and uses its chances in last quarter to grab another one win. With this win, Mega Vizura improved to 2-3 record, Zadar dropped to 1-4.

Radnicki – Union Olimpija 81-66

Radnicki defended its home court and gave no chances to Union Olimpija to hope for possible surprise. Radnicki played well in the most of this game, since Union Olimpija struggled from the start till the end of game. Radnicki improved its record to 3-2, and Union Olimpija dropped to terrible 0-5 record. Very tough situation for Union Olimpija.

Krka – Igokea 69-66

Despite great run in last quarter, Igokea failed to surprise Krka in road game. Both teams played well, even it wasn’t pretty interesting game in Novo Mesto. Krka had more luck in last minutes and they won. With this win, Krka improved to 3-2, as Igokea dropped to 2-3 record.

MZT Skopje – Partizan NIS 69-70

In real drama in Skopje, Partizan NIS with buzzer beater wins over MZT SKopje in fantastic atmosphere.

Partizan NIS improved to 4-1 record, until MZT Skopje dropped to 2-3 record.

Siroki Primorka – Buducnost VOLI 67-81
