Virtus Segafredo Bologna (@Virtusbo) June 11, 2021 Virtus Bologna closes the Scudetto series 4-0 with Milan and becomes Italian champion for the 16th time in its history. The last tricolor was twenty years ago, 2001, the year of the slam (Euroleague and Coppa Italia also won). Olimpia yields without even hitting a beat, an unthinkable prediction after the first place in the regular season. Both teams were unbeaten in the playoffs, Virtus was confirmed even after the championship series



Race 4 at the Segafredo Arena ends 73-62. Three quarters point to point or almost (as in the previous games of the series), then the black Vs accelerate with the triples of Belinelli (15 points for him, 4/10 of three) and Teodosic contribute to digging the +10 that turns out decisive. For Milan, disaster from the line: 5/21. Rodriguez in great difficulty, as in race 3. Among the Bolognese, in addition to the 'usual suspects' Teodosic, Weems (14 points), Belinelli, Markovic and Ricci, Alessandro Pajola is confirmed, 22 years still to be completed and already a certainty.
