Tomic and Claver launch the club: third consecutive victory in Euroleague

The Baskonia crushes the Darussafaka to cut your losing streak

Results and rankings of the Euroleague

Europe as a great measure of these years journey through the desert to the Barcelona, Europe as obsession now seeking to be reborn. To return to that place of privilege that should never be expelled, by budget and by history, is the hope barca. Why not access the quarterfinals, to be between the nobility of the Euroleague. The third victory in succession in the present edition is a great statement of intentions, also the manner in which he acquired it: chalking to a shimmering Maccabi Fox. [74-58: Narration and statistics]

The team Hebrew, another classic, disappeared to the back of wardrobes. The third quarter was a torture. Left the club with the tusk sharpened with Claver and Tomic, two types many times with the asterisk over their heads, to an extraordinary level. With Kuric, one of the new faces, some more hopeful, torpedeando from the perimeter. When she was about to give account, the group of Neven Spahija had a slab on top. The ill-fated deployment of Wilbekin (touched physically), one of his references, it was a symptom.

The part was resounding: 25-7, to achieve the maximum after two trebles in consecutive Kuric (59-40). In the final act, the power under hoops of Seraphin and the genius of Heurtel was the last straw before the unrecognizable Maccabi, which came out scalding of Palau. Just the sparks of O Bryant and the triple Caloiaro, too little (took the low from Tarik Black, a former Lakers and Rockets).

The first half had been a struggle somewhat thick. A collision of two trains, pure physical over the floor. But no one broke. Johnny O Bryant did hurt at the beginning, when the Maccabi still dreamed of the triumph (28-31). You still lack cooking to Tel Aviv, all of a sudden, they found themselves blind-sided the ring. That misconception was his tomb.

After two wins to open the competition (in Moscow and Gran Canaria), the club, still with much work ahead, raises at least the head. Bayern, Darussafaka at home and now Maccabi, are victories which before were missing in the hour of the truth. But that will have to be reaffirmed. Without going too far, next Friday in Moscow to Khimki.

The night had left a nice tribute to Juan Carlos Navarro before their meeting, the story of the three fouls in 36 seconds of Cohen and the return of Adam Hanga to the Euroleague after his injury. The Hungarian contributed two points and three rebounds in 10 minutes.
