Ulm entered the series against Oldenburg as underdogs, they played four very even games, and in the end they managed to reach the semi-final where they will now face Frankfurt, and in my opinion this is an obstacle they will not be able to overcome. Skyliners are currently on a 20 home game winning run in all competitions, in the Bundesliga they won the last 12 games. In the first round of the play-off they defeated Alba three times, at home they won by 19 and by 21, they did not allow them to score over 66 points. This season, Frankfurt have been winning at home by an average of 15 points. In early March they defeated Ulm by 19. They lost their first head-to-head in Ulm, but we should point out that their best scorer Theodore and important defender Scrubb did not play back then. No one in Bundesliga is playing defense so well as Frankfurt, and their playing style does not suit Ulm who base a lot of things on running, they are not prone to physicality and that will be their biggest problem in comparison to the series against Oldenburg who cannot compete with Frankfurt defensively. Besides, the Skyliners have more good solutions in the paint, and Ulm's Morgan, who marked the series aganst Oldenburg, will have more work to do. Frankfurt are a team that defeated all German clubs at home, even Brose and Bayern lost here. But in away games, Ulm only defeated Oldenburg and Wurzburg, lost the other away games by double-digits. Ulm and Alba are close, quality-wise, Frankfurt proved this season that they are now at the top of Bundesliga and in my opinion they are the only team that can threaten even Brose. They play the entire 40 minutes in the same pace, they do not relax and that is why I decided for the handicap on the whole game.
