Caprabo Lleida: banking on a high-tempo approach
Lleida have played a number of preseason friendlies, showing flashes of promise in some games and struggling in others. Their most recent test came against Barcelona, where they fell 87-96. Defensive issues were evident throughout, and there’s little reason to believe those will be resolved overnight. Offensively, however, Lleida’s pace and transition play suggest they can create favorable scenarios. Playing on the road is certainly a challenge, and they’ll need time to adjust to a much higher level of opposition. Still, their up-tempo style could help offset some of the difficulties with team chemistry.
