Up to three matches have been canceled this week: ASVEL – Panathinaikos from Athens, Baskonia from Vitoria – Zenit from Saint Petersburg and Valencia – Zenit, and another match (ASVEL – Crvena Zvezda from Belgrade) hangs from the same fine hair.
Wednesday does not seem to be calm either. The Russian portal sportsdaily.ru reports that, for unspecified reasons, Spain has not admitted Rim Kurtinaitis, the head coach of the Moscow Chimki region.
His students have to challenge the mighty Real Madrid tonight at 10 p.m., but the strategist still cannot cross the border.
According to journalist Pavel Sodajev, it is possible that Kurtis is still trying to reach Spain, where his troops await on Friday the second duel of the double week of the Euroleague with “Baskonia”.
If, after all, R. Kurtinaitis is forced to return to Russia without taking any of it, his compatriots will have to replace him. Giedrius Kurtinaitis, Aurimas Jasilionis and Robertas Kuncaitis work as assistant coaches in the Chimki team, and Evaldas Kandratavičius is responsible for physical training.
We remind you that the coronavirus is highly involved in the ranks of Chimki. Chimkiečia played with Kaunas “Žalgiris” in the narrow ranks of the weekend, the club will have only 6-7 healthy leading basketball players in two games this week.
R. Kurtinaitis has recently had to deal with a group of his students: Janis Timma, Yevgeny Voronov, Maxim Barashkov, Jordan Mickey and Greg Monroe – infected with COVID-19, Stefan Jovic, Alexei Swede and D. Bertan – traumatized, and Errick McColl.
For all these reasons, the bookmakers predict that Chimki will be crushed in tonight’s match; they say that Real should win by more than 20 points.
