Kyle Guy warned at the end of the match: “I’ve prepared games like this all my life in college, in the NBA and now here. I’m confident and I just want to help my teammates. It’s my job.” The American player’s 30 points dazzled Wizink Center, who applauded the performance of the La Penya player who deserved the victory (83-93) for his team.

Penya’s Defense

Madrid came out to mark the place (13-3) thanks to their intensity, but they were victorious from there with La Penya’s defense (17-16), who also closed their rebounds well. He added a bit of speed to everything in the deployment that punished the laziness of a slow Madrid. Durán was betting that Brodziansky, Birgander, Ellenson and Tomic would always defend the two hills against Tavares, who had worn out the white giant. Unable to relax on the bench due to Poirier’s injury. Chus Mateo retained the paint advantage (22-18) at the end of the first quarter as a complement to Yabusele, Hezonja and even Randolph and Cape Verdean.

Eight points from Pep Busquets in game two kept Joventut in the game as Guy added just three. But errors in white’s three-pointers allowed green and black (4-11) to add a partial, giving them the lead (32-33). Hanga held Madrid with 11 points, the same as Tomic’s assist and goal in Jokic mode. Guy’s stratospheric trio and the scoring horn came together (39-42). Penya defended and ran better.

The third quarter continued on the same track with a Guy pushing Mateo to warm up. Durán’s board shined as Tomic and Guy had fun and extended the score (47-59). Accumulated at the end of the quarter youth 12 of 19 trios, but this Madrid should never be counted as a loss and the awakening of Chacho and Moses allowed them to confirm a series despite Guy’s number 19 and Tomic’s number 16 (10-4) and complete the third period (64-67).

Guy and Felix give the lace

In the final quarter Guy and Tomic began to share their offensive decisions with the surprise factor of the very sharp Andrés Félix. Chus Mateo clung to the offensive power of his outer arsenal with Chacho, Llull, and Musa on the field. La Penya (75-83) dominated the shot in the last three minutes. It was a miracle in the face of a TEAM written in big letters by the hardworking and cheeky Joventut. But Guy’s final eight points closed the black-green win with 30 and eight three-pointers. Barcelona and Unicaja are taking action today.
