Endesa. The Barça he overwhelmed his rival with a record success and put the game on track with solvency and spectacle.
In general terms, the success was choral. The partial 40-18 that Barcelona attacked the Tenerifeans was signed by almost the entire squad of Saras. 40 points, 10 assists and just one loss, all for a 51 overall valuation.
The room started like a gale. The Barça He already had 30 points in the first 7 minutes and they had not yet missed a single shot to the basket. The remaining 3 minutes made up a movie result.
If you look at the hit in the shot, this was almost a video game. Barcelona scored 7 of his 8 3-pointers, 9 out of 12 on two pitches and the only free throw he tried in the whole room. No player was less than 50% accurate in shots in the entire quarter.
The 12 players of the squad stepped onto the pitch sometime in the room. Bypassing Oriola (55 seconds) and Westermann (3 seconds), all of them were participants in a brutal collective success. Cory Higgins and Adam Hanga were left without scoring, although they did not throw to basket either.
