Classification This is the ACB
Few more decisive players knew Spanish basketball.
With the winning instinct of
Sergio Llull
, who has a birthday, overcomes injuries and ailments, but does not lose his fang, Real Madrid solved another battle.
The MVP of the recent Super Cup, again, was the key to a victory that was complicated at times by a meritorious Monbus Obradoiro.
[78-68: Narration and statistics]
Because no one knows the details better, few decipher a clash that becomes entangled, that is heading towards disaster. The Balearic did it again to ruin the Galician good will and keep Real Madrid undefeated this season (five out of five), just before the visit of the European champion to inaugurate the Euroleague.
He no longer needs huge exhibitions, among other things because his presence on the court cannot logically enjoy the excesses of the past. The Llull reefs are small tsunamis, unpredictable, unapproachable. When the Obradoiro was heading to a last act in which to enter with his head held high, the Spaniard struck one of his triple fatalities with the horn blasting. It could seem like one more 'tangerine', walking around the field as if possessed. But that action, to which he added six more points at the restart, was a dagger in the hearts of the visitors.
Madrid, which swept Andorra on Friday, was being seen this time lacking in spark. As if he began to weigh this calendar that from very soon no longer gives respite, from 0 to 100 in a couple of weeks. Beyond the flashes of
Yabusele
, who amazes with his power and versatility, the first advantages (20-11) came more thanks to his defensive concentration, which drowned Obradoiro.
The Galicians reacted in the second quarter, based on self-love, led by the impudence of
Henry Ellenson
, an interesting center with an easy trigger. But another squeeze, with the dominance of a
Poirier
who is increasingly leading, brought the reflection of white superiority to rest. And that the triple was not his ally. And that some imbalances did not like Pablo
Laso
too much
.
On the return Madrid did not finish feeling comfortable either.
Tavares
was the paradigm, falón, slow, unconcentrated: he soon went to the bench with four fouls. Also
Heurtel
, disappeared.
Moncho Fernández's
group
insisted on standing up, on not disengaging despite
Causeur
finally hitting the triples. He managed to minimize Yabusele, equalize the rebound, make the whites fail. With a partial of 1-14, Obradoiro was even ahead, to face the finish line with everything in the air.
But then ... Llull's triple on the horn in the third act was not just a relief.
It was the beginning of the end, like against Burgos last week.
He finished with 12 points and his car was joined by
Rudy, Williams-Goss and Poirier
.
So many blows were no longer supported by the visitor, who went tumbling down without losing pride.
He left a good feeling at the WiZink, but when Llull started running, it was better not to lose sight of him.
