Signed up just on Thursday, a new coach Emir Mutapcic had no time to improve the play of his new team but he underlined on a press conference that first of all he wants to make some changes in defense and it was visible at the very beginning on the Saturday’s game against Energa Czarni Słupsk.
Anwil Wloclawek started the match very easily and they were leading by five points (27:22) after ten minutes. Mutapcic rotated his players very frequently and his trust was repaid by D.J. Thompson, Paul Miller and Dardan Berisha who scored some very important shots. The guests continued to play effectively in next minutes but something completely unexpected happened in the middle of the second quarter.
Mantas Cesnauskis made a triple as first while Wojciech Szawarski copied his shots twice and the hosts were taking a control of the game. Anwil players tried to stop this run of good luck but they were not able to do it, as they were missing even free throws. Finally, Energa Czarni won 20-0 the period between 16 and 20 minute of the game and they were winning 56:37 before the break.
As it turned out later, the second quarter was the most crucial part of the battle, because the advantage of almost twenty points was too big for Anwil to cut. Eric Hicks was very active in low-post (20 points and 7 rebounds) but he found an equal opponent in Energa Czarni’s jersey. Bryan Davis, because it is about him, noted the best performance in this season, scoring 16 points and grabbing 9 rebounds. All in all, Anwil were able to cut the lead to only nine points, 86:95.
