Five playoff start paradoxes

We did not have time to sum up the results of the regular season, How did the first playoffs go?. Nothing, we will finish with regularity a bit later, and now five thoughts about the fight for the Final Six

Paradox #1


The hottest fight was not between neighbors in the standings. Dynamo-LO finished with Yugra-Samotlor without any problems, and Belogorye took out Kuzbass. At the same time, Fakel, who finished tenth, bit the third-ranked Dynamo by the end of the game., and Zenit from St. Petersburg barely rebounded from ASK at all. In knockout matches, the occupied starting height is not so important, how much is the current state of the team. In the bloodless ASK, the spirit is strong, and "Zenith" does not get rid of growing pains. team, born a champion, needs to be reborn, get the thought out of my head, that the ball will do everything by itself.

Paradox #2


Despite the wave of criticism and minor forecasts, I see great potential for Zenit in the Final Six. Will explain: preparing for decisive matches through the training process and test games is one thing., but to gnaw through an uncompromising ASC is another. Zenit will be in good shape. If Egor Klyuka joins (and the likelihood is high) - something else is in order in terms of positions on the site. Per aspera ad astra, how many times has it been. Could happen again, with the right emotional state and the presence of functional readiness.

Paradox #3


In the results for the regular season, I noted, that in all his victorious matches "Ugra-Samotlor" outperforms the opponent in reception. So in the playoffs, the Nizhnevartovsk team significantly outperformed Dynamo-LO in this element (61% YUKIOR finally loudly slammed the door in Novy Urengoy 39%), but in the end they didn’t get a game advantage. The hosts won the block by one wicket, allowed noticeably less of their own marriage and attacked more inventively on heavy balls. Here is another interesting point: captain of the hosts Denis Biryukov failed in attack (13%), but still managed to benefit the team of five (!) blocks and three aces.

Paradox #4


"What was it?!» – you ask, looking, how Yegor Krechetov plays, and Kuzbass gets a chance to win with Alexander Butko. If there was an uncontested “not a Beckham/Sivoiron day” in the playoff, in the diagonal - uncontested Papazov, then the conductor's console had freedom of maneuver. After the match, Igor Juricic "was happy to play in the playoffs". Let's write it off as politeness and complexity of the Russian language, because the fans of Kemerovo are still far from happiness.

Paradox #5


Dynamo made twice as many mistakes in the game with Fakel, but won a landslide. Youth from Novy Urengoy could not cope with the excitement and attack, Superleague top scorer Babkevich scored only a third of the goals, Dineikin and Yutsevich looked like MVL players. But gained invaluable experience of the playoffs, which the, perhaps, будет отчасти отыгран уже в следующем матче.
