Le Portel - Dijon

Before the playoffs, with a 28-point difference, Paris defeated Monaco at their home. Of course, many of the Monaco players were not able to play at the time, but even now, the Monaco players are not considered to be on the same level as those of Paris. I believe that having an incomplete team is a huge problem when playing against a fast and efficient team like Paris. The mindset going into the finals should be appropriate, and I think Paris will successfully start the series at home. The Monaco team seemed to perform well in the playoffs, but that must end, especially when it comes to the mastery of the game, as Paris is currently clearly superior to Monaco.

France finals, what will happen with Monaco after this season nobody knows, but I suppose this is the last time how the two strongest teams in France will meet against each other when watching Lyon play. These are two teams that focus on offense, but have many problems on defense. Of course, this style will never allow them to be a good defensive team, as shown perfectly by their matches this season. Even 3 out of 5 games ended with 200+ point totals, and not barely reaching 200, but comfortably surpassing it with 212, 229 and 218 points. Monaco uses a rotation of 7 players, which James managed to stop playing solo, but now they only have Strazelis, Okobo and Nedovic left.
