JSA Bordeaux lost by three points on Sunday afternoon against Marmande (64-67) while they led by 9 points in the middle of the third quarter (43-34) and were still ahead at 5' 42 from the end (57-56). Mathieu Hubert's protégés thus seem to suffer the blow physically, either through a lack of rotations or through a great excess of energy. Or both.
It is clear that the defensive solidity of the JSA was perfect until the break, notably with a dominant rebound, 44 in total, represented by an Edgar Wansi Fonkua in great form (14 rebounds). A defense which left Marmande with a score of 28 points at the break. However, this riot of defensive energy undoubtedly weighed in the balance when finding the physical resources to hope to win. Especially since the Bordelais had to do without a major element, Jakob Alamudun.
ASCH, a regular
With three losses, the JSA Bordeaux are therefore back in line, positioned in the middle of the table with four victories, the same record as their next opponent: Avenir Serreslousiens Colombins Horsarrois. The Bordelais know the difficulty of the task that awaits them, Saturday evening, on the Landais floor.
Horsarrieu has quality players in its ranks, who know each other well, notably the pivot David Acker (11 points on average), the leader Tanguy Monfort (9.57 pts), and the back Lucas Monblanc (13.57 pts) . A consistency which is the strength of the Landais who have been undefeated at home since the start of the season with three wins in a row, against Auch (76-66), Montaigu (97-75) and Coteaux du Luy (82-65). The Bordeaux coach, Mathieu Hubert, expects a difficult match but is hoping for a reaction from his team: “For them, it's always complicated to win, with a small venue, a team that knows each other very well and plays well collectively. The objective is to start with a new dynamic and win our first away match to get back on track. »
