The reaction everyone expected
The collective collapse experienced by Spain in the duel with Belgium was extremely worrying. The National team was at a turning point in the organization because if the trend continued, the permanence in Eurobasket it won’t spread for long.
However, the picture was opposite from last Sunday. Concentrated, with clear ideas and with a collective contribution Sergio Scariolo’s fantastically executed designdespite the coach’s fleeting anger when someone stepped off the line, to secure a pass in the second round.
In this sense, it is worth highlighting the role in its opening minutes Jaime Pradilla, who poured in 9 points without a miss in the blink of an eye in the first quarter. He took over Dario Brizuela who exploded just before the break with 16 points on 6-of-11 shooting to put the game on track.
