Velkou zásluhu na výhře svěřenců Martina Vaňka měl Jordan Brown, který dal 25 bodů a doskočil devět míčů. Za Děčín nastřílel 22 bodů kapitán Tomáš Pomikálek. Hosté se museli obejít bez střelce Jordana Ogundirana, který si v úterním čtvrtfinále proti Písku poranil koleno.
„Samozřejmě když vypadne jeden z klíčových hráčů, tak je to zásah. Stejně jako nám chybí dlouhodobě A.J. Walton. Domácím zase chybí Petr Křivánek. To k tomu nějak patří. Myslím, že jsme se s tím popasovali docela slušně. V útoku problém nebyl, 82 bodů je slušných,“ řekl sportovní manažer Děčína Jakub Důra v rozhovoru pro TVCOM.
Semifinále otevíráme přesvědčivou výhrou nad Děčínem a ujímáme se vedení 1:0 v sérii. Pokračujeme už zítra od 19:00 – všichni na Vodovku! pic.twitter.com/KHtDofCyxV

Válečníci vyhráli první čtvrtinu o pět bodů, ale v poločase už měli manko 14 bodů. V úvodu druhého poločasu prohrával Děčín o 17 bodů, ale v závěru třetí části se dotáhl na tříbodový rozdíl. V poslední desetiminutovce se domácí hráči soupeři opět vzdálili a oplatili mu předchozí tři porážky z ligy a poháru.
„Brno je velice kvalitní tým, takže dostat tady 98 bodů není žádná ostuda. Play off vyhrávají obrany a my jsme ji dneska neměli tak pevnou, hlavně ve vymezeném území. Dostali jsme tam příliš snadných košů a tím jsme Brnu usnadnili výhru,“ konstatoval Důra.
„Důležitá je výhra. Zítra se nikdo nebude dívat, o kolik to skončilo,“ řekl brněnský kouč Vaněk. „Důležitý je i samotný výkon, který byl ve druhé a čtvrté čtvrtině velmi dobrý. Musíme se připravit na zítřejší zápas, protože ve třetí čtvrtině nám Děčín dokázal částečně zastavit útok,“ dodal.

Chas McCormick’s premonition precipitates an ‘incredible’ day for Jake Meyers
CHICAGO — Before the best game of his life, Jake Meyers bemoaned baseball’s complexities with one of his buddies. Meyers is beating Chas McCormick in a battle for playing time, but it does not diminish their bromance. They share a draft class, deadpan style and the peculiar perk of throwing left-handed while hitting right-handed.AdvertisementThe two men spent Saturday morning wondering if extra-base hits have become harder to collect. Neither had a home run after the Houston Astros’ first 31 games. Meyers had four doubles. McCormick had one. Gaps are smaller, the two surmised, turning hustle doubles into a thing of the past. Their lighthearted discussion ended with a prediction from one friend to another.“You know what,” McCormick told Meyers, “I feel like you’re going to have a clip today.”McCormick’s slang segued into slug for a team desperately needing it. Only […]

Rex Sox call losing Triston Casas to knee injury ‘a big loss.’ In a tight early AL East race, here are their options.
BOSTON – For a fleeting moment on Friday night, it seemed like Triston Casas had given the Fenway Park crowd something to cheer about. A check swing from Casas had produced a soft chopper up the first-base line, which Minnesota Twins pitcher Joe Ryan was unable to cleanly field. Ryan’s mishandle allowed the hustling Casas to beat Ryan’s hurried throw to first, prompting a natural roar from the home spectators when the umpire signaled Casas was safe.But silence quickly followed.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementCasas had stumbled immediately upon making contact with the base, and collapsed to the ground holding his left knee. Multiple medical personnel rushed onto the field as Casas laid on his back on the grass near first base. Casas was lifted onto a stretcher where he sat upright, looking dejected and fearing the worst as he was wheeled off the field […]
Notre Dame beats Michigan for top-100 RB recruit Javian Osborne’s commitment

Jamie Vardy takes injured referee’s whistle, blows it to stop Premier League game so official could get help
Getty Images In a match between two teams already heading back to the Championship, it can be tough to players, but Leicester City legend Jamie Vardy brought the show to the King Power Stadium on Saturday in multiple ways in a 2-0 victory over Southampton FC. Vardy is in his last season with the club and scored a goal, but he also helped out referee David Webb during the match.
