Bayern: Bayern basketball players before the final

Munich (dpa / lby) - The basketball players of FC Bayern Munich want to use their first match ball directly to reach the final in the basketball Bundesliga. "Our goal is to end the series. We need a lot of killer instinct," said coach Andrea Trinchieri two days before the home game against Telekom Baskets Bonn on Saturday (6 p.m. / Sport1 and Magentasport).

After two away wins at the start, Bayern is only one win away from moving into the final like last year. "The biggest mistake now is that we think we're 2-0 up and now we have more than one chance to end the series." That thought is human. "But my job now is to fight human nature," said the 53-year-old Italian.

In the final, the three-time champion beckons the top duel against Alba Berlin. The capital city also go into their third semi-final game against the MHP giants Ludwigsburg with a 2-0 lead. "I'll talk about Alba if my team should reach the final. It's not over yet," said Trinchieri.
