Behind the brilliant Real Madrid, the party I put on Campazzo to leave his team one step away from the Final Four, from the recovered competitiveness, from the 101 points, from the 24 assists and from 2-0 to Baskonia, there was a strange action that left the WiZink audience speechless and rarefied. Mario Hezonjaangel and demon, was expelled by a double technique when everything was already resolved.

Campazzo’s party leaves Real Madrid one step away from the Final Four
Editorial: LUCAS SEZ-BRAVO Madrid Campazzo’s party leaves Real Madrid one step away from the Final Four
Minute 37 runs, Madrid up 20, everything seen for sentencing, collective joy and handfuls of good news for a team that is preparing to go through the moment of truth of the season. A penetration by Hezonja along the baseline, a foul that perhaps should have been called (or not) due to a collision with Dani Dez, a bad blow against the photographers and the protections and some protests from the ground that end in technical. And, on the way to time out, the second. And the hurricane. The Croatian, instantly unhinged with the veteran referee Sasa Puklcontinues with his anger and ends up expelled.
The anger continued on the bench during the time-out. Bottles against the ground, kicks and anger when they tell him that he has to leave the field. He braces, challenges Pukl from a distance and several members of the staff have to take Hezonja to the locker room. Without him, she returns to calm.
It is not the first short circuit of a player as brilliant as he is visceral. Already in the first part he had to deal with Chus Mateo and with Musa. In Tuesday’s game, he also showed his bad temper for the defensive adjustments with Markus Howard. In the Cup they had it with Llull…And so, hundreds of times.
The context of Hezonja’s combustion is also explained in its weak second half, after a first quarter of seven points (a beautiful triple from the logo included) and eight shots. In the play before the volcano, he had missed a hasty shot from six meters. And right after Rogkavopoulos I hit a triple in his face.
Controversy once again surrounds Hezonja, who arrived at the second quarterfinal tie weighed down by a blow he received on Tuesday. His future remains up in the air, since he has not accepted Madrid’s renewal proposals and the noise of his possible departure to the Greek Panathinaikos increases.
In the press room, no one came to evaluate Hezonja’s penultimate anger. Chus Mateo made a positive assessment of a victory that leaves them at the gates of Berlin. His team is the only one of the Euroleague seeds that has managed to maintain the home-field factor. “Offensively we have been good, but defensively we make an effort to cover the strengths of a great team like Baskonia. They play very well on the counterattack, shoot very well and rebound very well. In the first half they made 10 of 20 (in three-pointers) “Not because of our poor defense. We have maintained that rhythm and if we do it like this and do not hesitate, even if we make mistakes, we can be in a position to win the game. We have had faith until the end and we have managed to open the gap,” he reflected.
