No surprises among the NBB on Tuesday night

No surprises in the NBB on Tuesday

Flamengo and Sao Paulo successfully closed out their series on Tuesday night in the NBB. Both teams had no troubles in the Quarter-Finals Stage as Flamengo swept Paulistano, while Sao Paulo dominated over Bauru. The difference was quite visible in Game 3 when both teams won by around 20 points in the end leaving their opponents no chance of bouncing back.

Flamengo took a demanding 22-point lead at the half which was more than enough to secure the victory in the end, 68:87. Surprisingly, Jose Paulo Batista was the highest scorer for the winners with 15 points on a 6-10 shooting from the field. São Paulo, on the other hand, took off fantastic as well, opening a 17-point advantage after two quarters. Bruno Caboclo helped his team get things done with 25 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists for the night.  

Sao Paulo will have the toughest task in the Semi-Finals facing off the top-seeded Franca. On top of that, they have lost 4 out of their last 5 games against this opponent. On the other hand, Flamengo still awaits the winner between Minas and Unifacisa.
