Match Preview
The ACB Liga semifinals move to Badalona with Joventut facing elimination after two defeats in Valencia. The hosts competed well for large stretches of Game 1 but now need a near-perfect performance to stop the Oranges from reaching the grand final.
Joventut Running Out of Answers
After losing the quarterfinal opener in Vitoria, Joventut kept their playoff hopes alive by crushing Baskonia 82-63 in front of the home crowd. Cameron Hunt delivered one of his best performances of the season, scoring 27 points while shooting 6/8 from beyond the arc.
They then defied the odds in the decisive Game 3, claiming a 96-88 victory last weekend. Veteran Ricky Rubio played a huge role, scoring 23 points and knocking down four of his seven three-point attempts.
Things are not looking good for them in this semifinal series though, suffering back-to-back defeats to Valencia. The opener ended in a dramatic 118-117 overtime loss despite Joventut hitting 18 of 37 three-point attempts, while Game 2 was much more one-sided as they were crushed 90-76 after falling behind early and never recovering.
Valencia Closing In on the Finals
After finishing the regular season in 2nd place with a 25-9 record, the Oranges struggled in the quarterfinal opener against Bilbao at home but ultimately escaped with an 83-80 victory before finishing the job on the road with a much more convincing 88-71 win. Kameron Taylor hit several clutch shots and finished as top scorer with 15 points.
The semifinal series against Joventut started with a dramatic 118-117 overtime victory in front of the home crowd. Jean Montero delivered an outstanding performance with 27 points and eight assists, while Taylor recorded a double-double with 19 points and 11 rebounds.
Valencia dominated Game 2 from start to finish and doubled their lead in the series with a 90-76 victory. Ball movement and offensive depth made the difference, with six players reaching double digits. Brancou Badio led the scoring with 16 points.
Verdict
Joventut missed a huge opportunity in Game 1 and now find themselves under massive pressure. Valencia have looked more consistent throughout the season, so I expect the visitors to finish the job and reach the ACB Liga grand final. An away win in –2.5 handicap is the best bet.
