Unfortunately, Crvena zvezda mts could not beat mighty CSKA Moscow for the 2nd time in this season. The Russian side triumphed in the 22nd round of Euroleague Regular Season, mostly thanks to their incredible shooting percentage. It is enough to write that CSKA Moscow made 7 three-pointers out of 8 attempts just in the first quarter!
Anyway, the final score says it all. CSKA Moscow were so good this evening offensively that they scored 102 points against one of the best defensive teams in Euroleague.
Still, the most important thing is that Crvena zvezda mts are still among the 8 teams who are holding the Playoffs tickets and we surely hope that they will stay in the Playoffs zone until the end of the Regular Season.
