BG Göttingen in front of a key game: Does the knot finally burst in Ludwigsburg?

On Saturday evening at 8 p.m., Bundesliga basketball players from BG Göttingen are faced with a new challenge. After a disappointing start to the season without winning in the first three games, they compete with the MHP huge Ludwigsburg. The context of this encounter is particularly explosive, because after the home win in the BBL Cup, the BG has withdrawn into the league that was shaped by bitter defeats.

The team of coach Olivier Foucart has not yet been able to successfully record the first season and hopes to finally win the first victory in Ludwigsburg in Baden-Württemberg. Ludwigsburg, on the other hand, has established itself through two victories and two defeats in the midfield of the table and will do everything possible to win against the Göttingen. Nevertheless, the MHP giants also have to struggle after they last left the Syntainics MBC in the trophy. BG assistant coach Kenneth Desloover has clearly outlined the enemy's strengths: "Ludwigsburg distinguishes a powerful defense that forces the opponent to errors."

Preparation for the game

In the ranks of the BG there is a fresh wind, since Tra Holder is new to the team. After a week of intensive training, he will try to better integrate into the team. However, the BG Göttingen faces a huge task, especially because the Ludwigsburgers give up the most throws per game. But the team's throwing rate is only 36 percent, which means that they often do not find the necessary target water. Despite their defensive strength, they also catch up with numerous points, which could give BG a chance to control the game.

The Situation is not only tense for the Göttingen. As usual, there is movement in the Ludwigsburg squad. The club recently announced the separation of Kevin Cross Jr., who was only hired in early September. Such changes in the squad show that not everything runs smoothly in Ludwigsburg either.

DESLOOVERE warns his team for vigilance. "We have to be well organized against the aggressive defense and adjust to a physical game. We must not allow unnecessary ball losses and better do it when rebound than before." The focus will be on being able to maximize every possession of the ball in order to maintain the chance of a first win in the season. This may be a fate for BG.

Overall, the question arises whether BG Göttingen can finally burst the knot. The development of this encounter is definitely eagerly awaited, not only by the players, but also by the fans who hope for a positive outcome.
