Basketball is already exciting for the Games

The local basketball seasons are over -or are there- with very good news for Argentina. It is paradoxical that the internal illusion is fueled by performances outside borders, but this is how it is marked by the situation: the first sports world is watched on TV.

So we could see that Facundo Campazzo he gave more than what was expected in the NBA in a top team like Denver; what Gabriel Deck He surprised with his arrival at that same tournament and, although he ended up in a weak franchise, his personality was enough to predict a good future among the best. They were also joined Luca vildoza, who landed on the New York Knicks with a debut for the next. You can join them Leandro bolmaro, a 20-year-old diamond whose rights are held by Minnesota and has just been champion of Spain with Barcelona, ​​an institution that wants to retain him.

They are added Nicolas Laprovittola, who took over the spicy base of Real Madrid; Luis Scola, scorer in the Italian League at 41, and Nicolas Brussino, figure of Zaragoza. Patricio garino he was unlucky with the injuries but the fight.

Beyond the fact that they all stood out in different countries, they are united by a team: the National Team. Except Bolmaro (he was out in the last cut), all of them were runners-up at the 2019 World Cup. And they will repeat in the team that will play the Olympic Games, again with Oveja Hernández as DT and the addition of Pablo Prigioni, former Golden Generation, as an assistant.

They know each other on and off the court. They proved their worth and kept a country awake at dawn for the Chinese cup. Why not replicate it in Japan?

It would not be fair to demand a copy of Atenas 2004 with the gold that Manu y Cía. This is another team, which although it has golden roots, has already shown to include its own DNA. Although that is the combination that generates a great illusion.
