Madrid disappointment in Belgrade

Final Olympic unleashed a wave of complaints about the arbitration action. It was incomprehensible that the arbitrators, two of them European, not observe the number of steps that the U.S. team by taking advantage of committing it. It was normal that FIBA had ordered greater permissiveness as the Team USA. What I can not understand is that the Euroleague allow like the one he lived in Belgrade in Pioneer's defeat by Real Madrid 81-77. [Story]

Two Italians

arbitrators, Guerrino Cerebuch and Carmelo Paterno, and a Greek, Nikolaos Pitsilkas, offered an exercise in laziness and lack of professionalism that puts both the arbitration between two questions of considerable size. Real Madrid lost to Partizan for the first time because of the trio arbitration. It is true that whites were the worst image that reminds all white since Joan Plaza occupies his bench, but the fact remains that they had a chance to win aborted by the trio arbitration.

Bad defense and worse attack. So the game that could be defined starred Real Madrid. Only Sergio Llull and Quinton Hosley will abulia rid of the table shown by Madrid. The performance of targets in Belgrade was simply unfortunate. The incumbents would be very different from having a rival broader front. To leave, the difference was only six points, but if the opponent is known as Panathinaikos, Barcelona or CSKA, to name a few, the disadvantage could have amounted to figures of historical record.

But there are also substantive reasons. Hervelle, Bullock, Mumbr, Massey and Pepe Sanchez are totally out of shape, or maybe missing link between new and coming from the , the issue is not an offer or ten percent of their actual performance. In addition, Papadopulos continues in his usual line since he arrived in the Spanish capital and Venson Hamilton is not yet compete for more than a few minutes.

Too many drawbacks to travel around Europe with minimum guarantees which despite the Real Madrid could win. The reaction to the round of the cloakrooms of the hands of Hosley and Llull, supported by Felipe Reyes and Papadopoulos, gave the whites up to eight point lead. The referees were ordered to abort such a difference and not let the whites add its second victory in the Euroleague.
