Mba Moscow Team Overview
MBA have been struggling with their form recently, securing only four wins in their last ten games. They average 79.8 points per game this season but concede more, around 82.3 points. The team's strength lies in their quick transition from defense to offense and their ability to hit long-range shots. However, their inconsistency and average roster often hinder their performance on the road. Interestingly, the total over 154.5 hit in six of their last seven away games.
In the aforementioned Game 1 against UNICS, the Moscow team held their ground only in the first 10 minutes before they began to fall behind. This outcome was somewhat expected, as MBA have consistently struggled against Kazan in all four regular-season encounters. We believe that not much will change in the upcoming meetings, as bridging such a significant gap in class seems unlikely. Simply making it to the postseason is already a considerable achievement for the capital's team.
