Insufficient reaction against Real Madrid (73-80)
Valencia Basket rowed
against the current to get into the game with three good defensive quarters
after a bad start and reduced a deficit that reached 16 points to get into the
game at the end, although the taronja squad ended up losing to Real Madrid by 73-80.
The beginning of the white team driven by Musa and Cornelie gave them a
twelve-point advantage at the end of the first quarter that Valencia Basket
could not reduce significantly despite improving their defensive performance,
neither when they hit the three-pointers at the start of the third quarter nor
when approached at the start of the latter. Five points in a row from Van
Rossom did serve to ignite the Taronja reaction and tighten the game with the
outside accuracy of the Belgian point guard himself and Harper to go down three
at the last minute. But Deck and Musa ultimately tipped the balance in favor of
the white team.
