• Direct witness: this was the beginning of the ACB in Valencia

Real Madrid dressed for the last time in shorts on March 8, an unhurried victory against Zaragoza in WiZink, with a team of circumstances in which Usman Garuba played almost 35 minutes and debuted Spagnolo , the umpteenth youth player to whom Pablo Laso was giving way. The frenzy of the season was already raging physically, in which he had played 56 games and had won 45, including two finals, the Super Cup and the Cup.

This Thursday, at La Fonteta (6.30 pm, let's go), the whites return with a triplet in sight. With almost all the healthy pieces ( except Salah Mejri , who had barely counted) and the only doubt of which non-community Laso would leave outside the Herbalife Gran Canaria. The break served to free minds and recover troops, including Sergio Llull. But the club was far from standing in the offices. In these weeks he has given him time to outline his future.

In times of ups and downs and uncertainties, there is no greater security than delving into the plan that has been operating for almost a decade. If the Laso era has been characterized for anything, it is for the permanent search for stability, for reinforcing one's certainties even in the most difficult moments. Now that the coronavirus crisis is going to make the market squirm, the roadmap in the white offices affects this route. Except for unforeseen twists of script, the next Real Madrid will be ... the same.

After renewing Anthony Randolph, Rudy Fernández, Jaycee Carroll, Trey Thompkins and Felipe Reyes (the latter in the absence of an official announcement), Madrid shows that it is not a time for rare bets. And it does not seem that even a resounding fall in the league tournament that begins today could change his thoughts. Except for blows from the NBA, which has Campazzo and Deck in the spotlight for a long time, there will be no more news for Laso than the arrival of Carlos Alocén, the promising base signed a year ago and transferred this time to his home club , the Casademont Zaragoza.

Thus, Campazzo, Laprovittola and Alocén will share the controls, with Llull always at the disposal of the director's position or as a prop in the escort. There will be no changes in the external shortlist, since Prepelic will not return from Badalona and it seems that the young Nakic will be given the opportunity to grow on loan. When Carroll decided, after much rambling about his retirement, to accept the offer for one more year , he completed the shortlist with Jeff Taylor, Rudy, Deck and Causeur.

And in the painting, with the eternal Felipe will be Randolph, Thompkins, Tavares, Mickey and Garuba. Mejri, with his mediocre performance, will obviously not continue.

15 pieces (you will see more of another pearl, Juan Núñez , who has already traveled to Valencia at the age of 16) in which the seniority prevails -there are eight players over the age of 30- and continuity in the project. There are four players who will add more than 10 target campaigns (Felipe 17!).
