Despite securing victory, Alba Berlin remains apprehensive about securing a direct playoff qualification. - Berlin Basketball Team Fears Playoff Experience
Hey there! Here's the lowdown on the nail-biting finale for Alba Berlin in the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL).
- 🏀 🇩🇪
The last game of the regular season was a convincing win for Alba Berlin, but there was little to celebrate. Why? Well, the outcome of the game didn't guarantee them a playoff spot. As wing player Tim Schneider stated after the 101:69 home win against BG Göttingen, "We're clueless about our final position."
Currently, Alba Berlin is in a playoff spot. However, they may lose it this Sunday, the final day of the season. That's because they have a bye while their competitors play, with a particular focus on the match between Löwen Braunschweig and the Würzburg Baskets.
Ojeda Expecting Seventh Place
If Würzburg loses and the Heidelberg Academics defeat the Frankfurt Skylines, both teams will be tied with Alba. In this scenario, Alba's worst record in a direct three-way comparison would push them back into a play-in spot. This is what sports director Himar Ojeda anticipates. "The odds are stacked against us, and were likely to end up in seventh place," said the Spaniard.
If that happens, Alba Berlin would have to fight for their playoff ticket in the playoffs on Tuesday. With a win at home, they could secure the playoff ticket at the last minute. "But let's not let that bother us now," said Ojeda. He believes the team's recent progress gives them hope for the season finale. "We're seeing a completely transformed team - it's old Alba, and that fills me with hope for the final games," stated captain Martin Hermannsson.
