EL 2023/24 Play-Offs: Monaco - Fenerbahce

[paspalj]

Damn, congrats to Fener! They really tried to throw the game in the end, that was crazy! I think they went 1/6 FT? Oof…
Anyway, Fener is a completely different team at home so with an away win secured this series changed favorites tonight imo.

This is some top tier cope. James *can* be as bad as he is today at least two more times in four games. Wilbekin and Motley being out is really rough though, yes. Dorsey and Madar need to step up

We don't need willbekin and Madar. Motley is other story and I hope he will be back soon

[Edgar]

hahahha, I am delighted that there is no need anymore to prove you as Fener hater. You said all by this post

What? I wanted Fener to win. I had money on them! But I do think it won't be easy for Fener. If Calathes plays like this for 2 days well kudos to him and if James plays this bad then shame on him! Hayes-Davis can't play every game 35 mins and do you think Sestina can shoot like this 3, 4 games in a row?

[iskoch]

calathes. our leader. did everything in the last quarter; 3 pt, steal, rebound, assist, leadership and won the game.

Loyd 16
james 16
okobo 19

and we still managed to win

congratz to Fenerbahce

[Overthetop]

Great struggle by the team! Huge advantage for the Final Four!

Well, to be fair in that context I think the same
But, there is some reserve in Biberovic maybe for new effort on Friday

Guy who commented Dorsey as inconstintent didn't follow Fener this season or didn't watch game
In tonight game his 2 shots changed momentum of the game(Monaco was leading by 8 before that)
But through season we can talk about his inconsistency just because Saras kept him from the main role. Tonight 30 minutes and he showed his quality

Of course it's also about usage but under two different coaches Dorsey was arguably our most inconsistent player lol. I watched like 80% of the games this season, but just check his stats vs minutes played if you need a refresher.

In any case, we need Wilbekin healthy if we are going to make a title charge. Otherwise we need someone to step up and that is either Dorsey (remains to be seen) or Madar (I have little hope).

Dorsey will step if get minutes like tonight, Madar won't because kid is useless. Willbekin is gambling, such players could win game but not championship, I hope he will stay sidelined then Dorsey and Biberovic will play more

Dorsey and Biberoic are among the best shooters in EL this season with 45% and 56% for 3pt

Under Bartzokas he was leader which means those two coaches maybe didn't use him in proper way

dorsey can be effective just as shooter.
he is very good at elevator, very good at off-screen shots even off one dribble, very good at catch and shoot. but i would never give him the ball handling.

What a player.

Two away games, won by 4 points, coached by two former Maccabi guards, who played in PAO afterwards...

I could agree with this cos I am not such big fan of Dorsey too, but in limited backcourt we have there is not much space to choose.

If I am Saras last shoot should have been taken by him instead of guduric

[Levenspiel]

This is what I am talking the whole season, Fener is much better without willbeking and pierre

With Willbekin it woulld be +7 for Monaco

i was sure you'd write this haha

and you are not wrong. Calathes had the brains and could control the offense, which was impossible with the king.

i won't mention Calathes and his playoff woes any more, he was the best player on court yesterday, imho.
