UCAM wins the game of the year and launches across Europe

Date:

Is Europe? Never mind UCAM has won a fundamental victory tonight in their options to play in the Champions League next year and not give up their desire for the play-off just yet. And they did it in what was the most spectacular game of the season, winning more than three months later away from home and in extra time on a pitch they had never done before in the Endesa League and where only Madrid has won . Barça survived the exhibition of the legendary Marcelinho Huertas (43 points) this season, was the most successful on the cutting edge and overcame the stick to go into extra time when it appeared to have won it on the pitch of one of the giants of the standings, a Lenovo Tenerife classified fourth and current champion of a Champions League looking to rehabilitate next week. And best of all, UCAM won by agreeing with itself. He handed over control of his team to a player with no experience in Europe who, when his turn comes a month after his signing, will be indispensable. And wow if it leveled you up. Chris Chiozza was the best of the Murcian team, scoring 26 points and some of the most important baskets of the evening, being forgiven for the two free throws he missed four seconds after the end of three points and coming from Marcelinho’s ‘masterclass’ Huertas. Credit to Marcelinho Because players like the Brazilian are part of the Endesa League and UCAM is lucky enough to compete against him. Even last night. Turning 39 this month, the veteran point guard went to 42 points, nine more than his previous personal best in over 600 games in our league. His guitar solo nearly ruined the Murcian celebration as UCAM took a double-figure lead in the third quarter, as Huertas scored 28 of his 43 goals between the fourth quarter and extra time, one he forced himself by taking three free throws from the end. top hat as UCAM savored victory, causing Jelínek to sin like a nerd. An exhibition that will go down in history, as Marcelinho Huertas is the oldest player in the history of the Endesa League to exceed forty points and he is the fourth highest scoring player of the 21st century. Lenovo Tenerife 109 Fernández (9), Sastre (10), Cook (7), Doornekamp (14) and Guerra (7) -starting five- Rodríguez (0), Huertas (43), Salin (6), Diagné, Shermadini ( 8), Abromaitis (6) and Bolmaro (0). UCAM Murcia 111 Chiozza (26), Jelínek (12), Anderson (6), Radovic (20) and Pustovyi (11) -starting five- Bellas (8), McFadden (21), Sakho (4), Diop (1) , Rojas (0), Nikolic (2) and Andronikashvili. Partial: 24-18, 25-24 (49-42), 12-29 (61-71), 35-25 (96-96) and 13-15 (109-111). Referees: Fernando Calatrava, Vicente Bultó and Andrés Fernández. Incidents: Tenerife Santiago Martín Sports Pavilion, 4,727 spectators. 32nd round of the Endesa League. But he will always remember it with a defeat against UCAM. A recognizable one in his best basketball, with a very balanced ball between the inside and outside ball and with some of his own names that responded when needed most. Radovic was the power hammer who had his consistency all season, with 20 points and only two missed shots; McFadden’s sparks gave what no one else can give, Bellas was the veteran who got off the bench to put down a chair and the successes of irregular men like Pustovyi and Jelínek far outweighed their failures. But a UCAM also unrecognizable for the maturity with which they played the entire game away from home, where they hadn’t won in over three months, and to break their streak on a pitch where they hadn’t before in the Endesa League and where they were 20 points behind this season (85-65, ‘top 16’ of the Champions League). The best UCAM A steadfastness brought about by a game plan aimed at closing the door to Shermadini’s continuations with long help from outsiders, even with the risk of three-pointers that this entailed, as shown by the eight three-pointers of the Canary Islands at halftime, the best moment of the team from Amsterdam thanks to a second bad final sprint of the fourth in a row (49-42). Chiozza missed two free throws after losing to Jelínek four seconds from time, but Murcia’s insistence came with the prize of victory. The third quarter wasn’t just the game-changing blow. UCAM may also have been the one that changed the season. Because the locker room exit, a classic ‘slut’ from Murcia, brought the best version of the one from Sito. Short rotations between the main men, attacks led by Chiozza and a defense without cracks. After a few minutes of variety, UCAM tied the game with a counter-attack from Anderson that led to Vidorreta’s timeout (57-57, minute 26). It was useless. The UCAM was launched and confidence grew. Partial 0-11 stretching to 2-20 from the maximum advantage (59-69, minute 30) to go into the last quarter with Tenerife flustered, with Shermadini desperate not to see a ring so far and all the team has bottled up in ongoing protests (61-71, end of third quarter). The Epic of the Big Nights It was there when Marcelinho donned his superhero cape to challenge the concept of basketball as a team sport. With the powers of one of the teams with the deepest bench in the Endesa League minimized, Huertas was the Canary Resistance. His hypnotic yo-yo dribbling, bouncing around the field and rejecting or taking blocks at will was a martyrdom for both Chiozza and Bellas. A full Murcian game turned into a coin toss at some point, as it was until the very end. The excellent defense against Shermadini helped Marcelinho score 43 points from the end on 25 field goals and 14 free throws, which Chiozza would first tie and then take the lead with an incredible three-pointer with 29 seconds remaining (93-94 ). He stole the ball on the next attack and hit two free throws with 15 seconds left, but UCAM didn’t need them to dodge the three-pointer and the worst happened: three free throws for Marcelinho, who stretched his legs back to find the target Jelinek contact. All in and out. Winning countless times One in which the Murcians would go without initiative in exchanging blows until Chiozza’s sixth triple, which would be followed by two free throws missed by Sastre and two scored by Jelínek (105-107, 1:42 to the final). After a minute of failures, McFadden let him close to candy with 11 seconds left (105-109), but Abromaitis scored a three-pointer in just three seconds. Bolmaro took the foul and was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct on Jelínek, who made his free throws, but lost the ball four seconds before the end in extra possession (108-111). Fortunately, there was a foul on Chiozza. Unfortunately, he missed his free throws. Marcelinho looked for the epic from the line, scored and missed the second shot to grab his own rebound, but his shot to tie it didn’t go in.
