The Spanish team and its fans They faced this party as a final. After the ridiculous that perpetrated in the debut against Georgia was forced to react so as not to be eliminated Before time the first. And the second and not least, by image. The current European champion and the great dominator of continental basketball of the last 25 years He could not break his story with pitiful elimination.

From black to white, an unfair extremism
Who else and who least rant of the beauty of the game that perpetrated the selection in its debut. Yes “That's how we are not going anywhere”yes “It doesn't even give us to pass the first phase”that if “the players are very bad”, that yes “Scariolo I had to have left it “… and more nice ones that have prescribed in 48 hours. Disproportionate and excessive statements clearly.
That's how it is Spain, a country of filias and phobias. But the extremisms in this case would be as unfortunate as unfair. Neither after losing with Georgia we were so bad nor after winning Bosnia we are so good. Because neither the former were a neighborhood or single team against married, as he wanted to show. Not the second are the Lakers.

How were there no leaders?
Behind him Eurobasket's frightening start from Spain the alleged absence of leaders in this selection. And it even started a kind of plebiscite to see who could or should assume that responsibilityas if it were a television contest of Pandereta.
The point is that A party has been enough to discredit that theory. It is obvious that there is no longer GASOLES, NAVARROS, OR RICKYSbut there are players who can lead this group and pull the car, such as Darío Brizuela and Santi Aldama. They do not deserve to be compared to the previous ones, and less to try to ridicule them.

Brizuela, a minihbrid of Llull and Rudy
Darío Brizuela He scored three of the five triples in a row with which Spain broke the game between the end of the first quarter and the beginning of the second. The Barça escort is one of those who can act as a leader. Easy and claw trigger: a minihbrid from Llull in attack like microwave, and Rudy behind.

Neither without blood or horchata
And the other Spanish trained to carry the weight of this selection is Saints ALDAMA. Some accuse him of Not having blood in the veins, or having horchata, which is worse. Your gestural language does not help, it does not convey excitement and of course It is not a tax. But it has quality to give and take. And not only for what he did before Bosnia. The Grizzlies are going to pay 52 million in three years … and they are not dumb or have chopped. He deserves them. AND Surely he will give many nights of glory to the Spanish basketball.
