Sir Susa Vim Perugia returned to the PalaBarton this morning.
The Block Devils, after two regenerating days of rest following their passage to the playoff semi-final, resumed activity at Pian di Massiano with a physical work session while in the afternoon technical training is scheduled under the orders of coach Lorenzetti and his staff.
The next few days will be days of targeted and specific work for the Bianconeri. Days with a program specifically prepared to develop technical issues and to oil some mechanisms at a tactical level. All this while waiting for the start of the championship semi-final series which will start on the Easter weekend and obviously waiting to know the opponent who will emerge from the quarter-final series between Piacenza and Milan with the former ahead 2 to 1 in counting of victories and game 4 scheduled for Sunday in Milan.
2015-2016 season
Next year will be the ninth championship semi-final for Perugia. A story with the penultimate act of the post season that began in the 2013-2014 season when the Block Devils beat Piacenza in five games. A story made up of 6 victories (the one against Piacenza, twice with Modena, once each with Trento, Civitanova and Monza) and defeats (in the 2014-2015 and 2016-2017 seasons both against Trento). A story that 6 times out of 8 ended beautifully (5 times with game 5, while in the 2014-2015 season the semi-finals were a best of 3 and ended in game 3) always demonstrating the great balance that reigns when looking for a place in the final.
A story above all made up of great series and great matches that have entered the memory of the PalaBarton public.
Like the 2013-2014 series with the then Copra Elior Piacenza who won two exciting 3-2 at Pian di Massiano in a building that precisely in that season fell madly in love with the Block Devils led on the bench by Boban Kovac and on the pitch by the current sporting director Goran Vujevic and the attacks of a very young “Magnum” Atanasijevic.
2021-2022 season
Like the 2021-2022 series with Modena, a crazy series, very nervous and where the pitch factor popped like a champagne cork in the first four games until the decisive game 5 at the PalaBarton won by the bianconeri led by Nikola Grbic on the bench thanks to a monumental Matt Anderson.
Like above all the 2018-2019 series again with Modena, certainly the most incredible semi-final series of all and in which absolutely everything happened at PalaBarton in game 3 and game 5.
