On March 15, 1995, a star was born in Illinois, Chicago, and not even his family knew it. Barça beat Red Star by a difference of five points and thanks, in part, to Jabari Parker. The American finished the match with 20 points in your pocket, which is no longer just full of money.
Day 7 of the Euroleague has left us a broken man, perhaps unexpected due to the lack of knowledge of Barça’s rival. A match where the MVP fell to Chicago, but which could have landed in many other cities around the world. Willy Hernangomez, Mitrovic, Vesely and Jokubatis They also deserved their own recognition, although the American has surpassed any performance.
An offensively overwhelming Barça
It is not news that Barça is effective from the 6.75 m line, but it is at least surprising that it is in almost every game. Without a doubt is one of the strong points of this team, and that’s how it looked at the start of the first quarter. Up to four different players scored at least a three-pointer in the first period, anyone would say that only three-pointers are worth scoring.
Barça gained distance with its own triple contest (24-18), until the Serbian nightmare arrived. Normally, villains have only one name, since in this case they also have a last name: Milos Teodosic. The history of clubs like CSKA Moscow at Olympiakos He has paid a visit to the Palau Balugrana, and has pissed off more than one with his game. The 1.95 m point guard dynamited the game in favor of Red Star, bringing his team closer to Barça to within 1 point, 21-10.
If Barça was being a three-pointer, the visitors were quite the opposite. 0/8 in triples in the first 15 minutes match, rare efficiency in them that caused the culé cunning and a small advantage of 10 points. Willy Hernangomez was key in this Barça aliance in this second quarter, scoring up to 12 points in just five minutes. The Spaniard was being what Teodosic was for Barça, a terrible dream that seemed unstoppable, or at least that seemed reflected in the face of his defender, Joel Bolomboy.
Red Star went into the break with a good feeling, after a couple of triples via Teodosic and Nemanja Dedovic, 47-43. Upon returning from the locker room, the Blaugranas came out wanting to end the match with a hit on the table. It wouldn’t be that easy, the Serbs continued to pull the rope and even with more and more force. Maximum equality with fifteen minutes left to finish the match.
Moment in which the Barça star appeared, Jabari Parker. What better day to prove to be the star of your team than against Red Star, coincidences of the world. The reality is that Jabari lifted the Barcelona fans from the Barça seats. Palau Blaugrana. He scored baskets made in NBA and at the level of very few Euroleague players. The American has finally shown the immense and ridiculous physical superiority that it has over its rivals.
13 points in the third quarter for Parker, and Barça timidly took the lead on the scoreboard, 65-62. If Barcelona was not sealing the match, it was not due to a lack of ideas, far from it, but rather due to a problem with the rear bolt. The defensive rebound He was being terrible for Roger Grimau’s Barça, who looked desperate and I’m not saying this because of the crazy state of his curly hair. Mitrovic, Bolomboy y Kuzmic They were damaging the culé defense, while Willy, Kalinic y Vesely (normally rebounders) had not finished closing the rebound.
Mitrovica caused a 2+1 that put the tie at 78 in the light of the Palau Blaugrana. I responded vesely with the same bullet, 2+1 from the Czech which, in addition, caused the unprecedented madness of the visiting bench that ended with a technical foul. Red Star lost the ball and Jabari Parker He dressed up as the Celtics’ historic number 33, which Alonso did not, to end the match with a three-pointer from the corner with just one foot. The Palau surrendered to Chicago and with that and a last triple without any scare from Teodosic put an end to the one more victory for Barça in the Euroleague.
Turn for the ACB
After beating Estrella Roja on the seventh day of the Euroleague and putting the 6-1 global a favor, it’s time to return to the ACB. He will not move from Barcelona, since they play again at the Palau, this time against the islanders of Gran Canaria. The third classified, such as the Grimau team, will receive this Sunday at 6:30 p.m. to Dreamland Gran Canaria Albicy, Slaughter o Brussino.
Match belonging to matchday eight of the ACB, with a overall 6 wins and 2 losses for Barçawhile the canaries are placed twelfth with 4 wins and 4 losses. Key match to continue the winning streak and completely forget the tragic week where they lost to Real Madrid y Valencia Basket. For Barça, after this match on Sunday, another week comes with a double portion of the Euroleague against Baskonia and Valencia, and to finish with dessert, in Murcia.
