Early elimination of Spanish teams – For the first time in its history, it has not surpassed the first phase – EuroBasket 2025 That meant a huge disappointment for all Spanish fans.

Goodbye, based solely on basketball standards, would be explained for multiple reasons, as logically.

But one of them, perhaps the most visible to the viewer’s eyes, is surprising. scar.

According to the specialists, the most “trained” game factor is the launch where the player stops and always stops from the same position and distance, so it’s 4.60 meters from the line to the hoop.

The problem comes from afar

nevertheless In preparation He has already given several alarm signs that are recognized even by Sergio Scariolo himself. His numerous errors since the free kick caused the issues to be highlighted and worsened during the championship.

Naturally, the Spanish team has ended their participation in the continental tournament. Teams with the worst percentage of free throws of 24 participants, sad 60% successSweden (60.9%), Bosnia (62.1%), Portugal (63.8%), or even Belgium (64.5%) are below.

In addition to the aforementioned Bosnia, other selections surrounded by Group C, such as Greece itself (18th, 68.2%) and Georgia (17th, 70%), are also the worst pitchers of the championship, but not at a lower level as in Spain.

And the reality is that No one has failed as much as the Spanish team.not percentages or total releases. He made a mistake along the way as he started 110 free throws in the tournament and only won 66. 44 pitch.

Reviews, games per game, find out Spain started losing to Eurobasket Georgia (83-69) and Poor 46.2% (6/13) Free throw and win Bosnia (88-67), “Desert Oasis” of the mistake: 81.3%, Thanks to the notable 13/16.

But when it seemed like the Spaniard’s mental block from the HR line was over, Before Cyprus they returned to a walk: 59.1% (13/22) Success despite a bulky victory over one of the tournament’s hosts (91-47).

Identical numbers -59.1% and 13/22- Spaniard signed earlier Italyin that case they sacrificed the victory on them as they fell to a tight 67-63, but left most of the options to go to the 16th round of the Eurobasket.

And in the final duel Greecea duel with “life and death”, and despite being somewhat intounned from the 4.60-meter line, Scario’s thing has returned. Don’t reach 60% success (56.8%)I’m off the road Failed to start 16 (21/37), many of them at the final moments of a desperate party determined in favour of the 90-86 Greeks.

Up to 7 players under 50%

The most worrying thing for the Spanish team is that the mistake was not a problem with one or two players. Up to 7 template members completed the tournament with success of less than 50%.

They stand out – to be an a priori, good free throw pitcher – 33% (1/3) for Darío Brizuela or 40% (2/5) for Santi Yustameanwhile Xabier López-Aróstegui (5/10), Joel Para (4/8) Sergio de Larea (4/8) has achieved 50% success in “scraping.”

Individual analysis is required Hernangomez brothersin most cases, two of the players who came to the line, at the same time, a more false charm shows themselves throughout the Eurobasket.

Barca Willie is Spanish that started the most free throws (19) and the most failed (10), Ends with worry 47.4% success.

Some people get worse without considering the 4/4 signing Bosnia. 5/15 Played in 4 other games. Or the same thing, 33% success.

A very similar scenario finds when analyzing the number of Juancho. Hernangomez’s youngest is aware of the recognition after the exclusion of Spain, but has not tasted it since making a great season with Panatinaicos at any time in the tournament.

And above all, this has been verified from the HR line. 7/15 (46.5%), Like Willie, some numbers that will descend if you don’t consider 3/4 against Bosnia (4/11 and 36%).

Furthermore, in the case of Juancho, it has since become much more prominent in the “popular”. Yesterday, I failed three consecutive free throws against Italy 0/3, with no 13 seconds at the end There are 88-84 on the scoreboard.

Some green buds

But not everything is bad news for Spain since the free kick. The 12 youngest, selected by Sergio Scariolo Mario Sun Supery (2019) was the best pitcher from the HR line thanks to his epic 91.7% success (11/12).

In fact, Gonzaga University’s future base does not exist in the classification of better free throw pitchers. Because, although the minimum number of trials had not been reached, in percentage terms, it ended in the third position, only surpassing France’s 93.8%. Sylvain Francisco 93.3 of the Belgian Emmanuel Recomte.

They also signed some notable numbers Jaime Pradera (80% and 8/10) and Santi Aldama (76.5% and 13/17). It’s simply right, bad, within general dynamics Josep Puerto2/3 (67%). Yankoba Simah He did not start a free kick during his small participation in the Eurobasket.
