You probably experienced it with us yesterday followingnoon, Luka Doncic took on the French defense and he made a real mess of it. At stake ? A Slovenian victory and a new all-time record for points scored in an indoor EuroBasket. Nothing more logical in these cases to redo the images of such a demo, because here we are still a little masochistic on the edges.
The story begins with an ultra-difficult start to the match for Slovenia, during which the French team lays incredible barbed wire and promises hell to Luka and his sauces. The following ? Luka does not agree and begins a historic festival, which an involuntary opening of the skull on the part of Vincent Poirier will not stop, which only the final buzzer will manage to stop. An incredible prayer swayed in the first quarter, step-backs to vomit, a whole country on his shoulders and if Rudy Gobert will punish the dirty brat by crushing the Euro poster on his face, in the end it is Luka Doncic who took France to make confetti. No one had ever scored so much in a Euro match, Nick Galis is in retro and the 63 pawns of the Belgian Eddy Terrace had been scored on a city-stadium so it does not count. 47 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 14 insults in Slovenian, unbearable Doncic in substance as in form, at least as indefensible as unbearable.
We still remember very well the France – Slovenia of Tokyo? We will remember France – Slovenia in Cologne for a very long time, thanks (or because) of this trickster Luka, a bloated blond 23 years old and already among the greatest basketball players in history. Everything is going too fast.
