The report cards. Diouf, there's only him. Tucker loads empty

Payola 5,5 (in 29' 1/2 from two, 1/1 from three, 5 rebounds, one turnover, one steal, 5 assists). Starts strong with a three-pointer. The percentages aren't even bad. But captain Futuro has always had a contagious grit. Yesterday it wasn't there.

Cordier 5 (in 28' 3/6 from two, 0/1 from three, 1/4 from the free throw line, 4 rebounds, one turnover, one assist). With that physique and those calves he could break the world. Or at least the games. As he has done on many other occasions. Not received.

Holiday 4,5 (in 17' 0/2 from two, 0/2 from three, 1/2 from free throws, one rebound, one steal). Mystery. The chat on Monday had given the impression of a motivated player, who had understood the world and the new reality. He failed, and so did we. That Monday we let ourselves be dazzled by his dialectic.

Shengelia 6 (in 27' 6/9 from two, 0/1 from three, 2/2 from free throws, 8 rebounds, one block suffered, 3 assists). It's hard to give a failing grade to the Georgian warrior. Because he's someone who never gives up. Someone who fights, jostles and huffs. Only he should be enthralling. In Turin he lets himself be carried away by the collective anonymity of his teammates.

Diouf 6,5 (in 20' 7/7 from two, 6/8 from free throws, one rebound, one block, one turnover, one steal). Maybe he deserves half a point more because Momo builds a solid game. The best in attack. But it becomes difficult to give a 7 to a player when a team - Virtus, not just any club - suffers so much.

Thank you 4,5 (in 7' 0/1 from two, one rebound). There was a time, not too long ago, when foreigners made the difference. But in a positive way. Once again anonymous to the point of non-existent.

Belinelli 6 (in 16' 1/2 two-pointers, 2/5 three-pointers, 2/2 free throws, 2 rebounds, one turnover, 2 assists). The captain does his part. He also equals the record for three-pointers in the Italian Cup, 31 like David Moss. But it's a small consolation.

Tucker 4,5 (in 18' 1/3 two-pointers, 1/3 three-pointers, 1/2 free throws, one rebound, 2 turnovers, one steal, one assist). He charges headlong. When he does that it becomes deleterious. Let's say that his evaluation is in line with who - coach Ivanovic - insists on him in the first half.

Polonara 5 (in 15' 1/6 from three, 4/5 from free throws, 3 rebounds, one turnover, one assist). Achilles against Ettore (Messina). Unfortunately, Iliad doesn't give anything away: this time Ettore is laughing.

Hackett 5,5 (in 16' 1/1 from two, 1/1 from three, 2/3 from free throws, 2 assists). A jolt, little more. Even from Daniel we always expect something more.

Akele 6 (in 7' one rebound, one assist). If Virtus goes off the rails, it's certainly not his fault. Sure, he commits a naive foul. But Nicola gives it his all. It's impossible to blame him for a defeat that has other charges.
