Selection.La "brutal" inexperience, a showcase for Colom and a 'final' in November
After two defeats in the three qualifying games, Spain will play it this Monday against weak Romania (7.30pm, BeMad).
A key match, although even
in the unthinkable scenario of a defeat nothing would be final
, as there are two more matches in February.
Of course, if the team beats the team led by Emmanuel Cate (UCAM Murcia), it will mathematically be in the Eurobasket 2022.
Sergio Scariolo did not miss the preview this Sunday at the Fuente de San Luis.
He took iron from the seriousness of the situation, but sent a message for those who want to listen.
The problem of the development of the national player that has not been solved for so long in Spanish basketball.
"We all know that Spain is the country in the world in whose League there are fewer national players, and specifically the average number of minutes played by these 13 players is more or less 17 per game; and none of them play abroad," he launched his arguments. .
Well, before he had explained the real reasons that matter to him about these periods of concentration: "The purposes of this 'window' are basically two. One is to
qualify for the Eurobasket
, and to achieve it we have to win this match against Romania, and the another is to try to give international experience to our players, who have very little. "
Returning to the crux of the matter, he continued: "They are very worrying data, they do not have to lead to a negative assessment of the national teams or anyone's work, but in the face of growth and the replacement of the National Team, it is a situation and data that must be taken into account and
we are quite concerned about them, honestly
. "
"From here, of course, there are occasions for players to understand how important a detail is, how important it is to stay focused for 40 minutes ... There are many things that are acquired by playing, competing, making mistakes and learning from errors. So the opportunity is very good to add more experience and at the same time ensure qualification for the Eurobasket ", settled who will soon head to the preseason of the Raptors.
One of the proper names this week in Valencia is, without a doubt, that of
Quino Colom
, who against Romania seems like a new determining player.
The Andorran, great but exhausted against Israel, called for "getting character" against Romania.
"Learning from mistakes and with a very good mentality to face the game and get the victory we need."
With the center Rubén Guerrero touched on his right ankle, Scariolo must choose to force him or include
Barreiro
among the 12 who face the Romanians, a team that Spain has already defeated in Cluj and has lost all their games.
