Basketball: Sassari ready, but the Super Cup is an unknown factor

"It is really difficult to approach this appointment, you have to live for the day and it becomes complicated to make predictions when we don't even know who we will have available, given that today we have swabs and we are waiting for the outcome". Coach Gianmarco Pozzecco struggles to hide behind an only apparent diplomacy, but his face shows all the perplexity with which the Dinamo Banco di Sardegna coach prepares for the first official appointment of the season.
    From Thursday 3 September the Sassari will be engaged on the field of Geovillage in the Supercoppa group that opposes it to Rome, opponent of the debut, Brindisi and Pesaro. Finally the pitch will speak again, but the situation is surreal and Pozzecco is unable to hide his skepticism. "We do not know who we will be, nor who we will have against, we will play behind closed doors, without an audience, and we will be on the field after four or five months of inactivity - says the coach - I put myself in the shoes of the athletic trainer Matteo Boccolini, he is a genius but he must cope with a particularly complicated situation ".
    Then Pozzecco tries to look for the positive aspects of this early start to the season. "Is it right to play or not to play? I don't really know, but it's certainly nice - says the coach - I don't know what sense to give to this Super Cup, but I know I'm extremely happy with the response from my boys so far, I have 12 elements with great desire to work and build something together ". As for the basketball that has been seen in these first days, the Poz is not unbalanced. "On the pitch I saw everything and the opposite of everything, there are teams already run in and others still very late, we go to Cremona, who did not know until the end if he would have the opportunity to register, in Milan, which has one of the best coaches in the world, Ettore Messina, a substantial budget, strong players and a long bench ".
