The last losses of Real Madrid have been a 'blessing' for Carlos Alocen.

The

injury Lull

and

positive Laprovittola

left it as single natural base in rotation Laso.

It was drowning or swimming, and the pearl of skill, which had not finished loosening, is emerging.

After an excellent game against Panathinaikos, they excelled again against Alba Berlin (63-72).

In a complicated stretch of the course, the whites seem to have added another one for the cause.

Alocen's confidence (12 points, four assists) is evident in the passes he dares to give, in the determination with which he begins to attack the rim, but above all in the stability he gives the team in its best moments.

It was his hand that gave strength to the good start of Real Madrid although, as has happened in recent days, he had to sweat until the last second to fasten the victory.

The tenth against Alba Berlin in as many games.

The match seemed tied enough for Laso to want to give

Abalde

,

Tavares

and

Causeur

rest in the final

stretch

, the men who had raised the lead (52-65) alongside Alocen.

But from the hand of Jayson Granger the German team managed to combine an 11-0 partial that forced the Vitorian coach to call them back.

It is the fate of the last games of Real Madrid, which does not end by curdling a full 40 minutes.

But in that moment of trouble, like against

Panathinaikos

or before

Bayern

, he managed to find enough to move it forward.

Aíto García Reneses

usually put small challenges to their players.

Sometimes just extra tasks to keep working on mental agility off the track.

Xavi Fernández

became obsessed with chess and

Edy Tavares

, who was a pipiolo, made him do sudokus.

The Thompkins robbery

Beyond the anecdote, the Madrid coach was essential in the development of the Cape Verdean boom and now he has to suffer it in the Euroleague.

The coach acknowledged that his players had reservations when attacking the area because they saw their 2.20 planted under the ring and, after rowing until the game was tightened to the maximum, he found a 2 + 1 of the one who had been his pupil (63- 68).

In the next defense, the focus was on

Trey Thompkins

.

The American has such a knack for making dots that it's easy to miss what's inside the package.

In addition to being a wrist, he performs well at the post and over the years has gained in character: he has gained vision of the game and, without becoming Tavares, he performs better in defense.

Against Alba Berlin, he brought out the entire repertoire and in the last minute, in the key defense against Maodo Lo, he stole the portfolio from the point guard to light the counter that would solve the victory.

Causeur, top scorer (13 points) and point guard in the final minutes, a great assist was pulled from the hat so that

Deck

, hero against Panathinaikos, gave the last brush to the victory.
