NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Zenit needs to do better

CSKA once again extracted a free-throw advantage over Zenit, shooting 21 in compared to 9 made free-throws by Zenit. On the rebounding end, CSKA extracted a 39:33 rebounding advantage versus Moscow. The Zenit squad did a decent job of shooting from the three-point line, clicking on 14 triples compared to 9 by CSKA Moscow. Can Zenit get a free-throw advantage at least this time around after being outgunned twice in a row.

The CSKA team seems to have more options than Zenit. All the starters scored at least 10 points but the play of inside player Nikola Milutinov has been the most inspirational as he clinched 17 rebounds in the last game and has been an effective option. On the other hand, Zenit received a 20 points boost from Sergey Karasev but no other player even hit the double-digit mark. Can Zenit get more out of others after two poor shooting nights?
