Hmm, actually that's a very good combo to beat an NBA team, Serbian coach + Athletic Americans + Ex Yugos. I think German discipline would come default by being a German team too. Nevertheless it's a remarkable success, beating the Spurs team that playing full roster and trying to win. The game winner was also amazing.Well if the Serbian coach can install German discipline on a team that mainly consists of Americans and ex-Yugos, then yes
Nah but ALBA did a lot of things to compete with them. They aimed for unguarded shots even if that meant mid range floater and elbow Js. They hit these kind of shots remarkably good, were consistent/lucky from the longer 3 point line and crashed the glass, which showed in the rebounding ratios.
Parker was amazing, Ginobili either not interested or out of shape. Duncan solid and Leonard underwhelming and inconsistent in his moves he tried.
Also defensive rotations were solid from Berlin, which lead to less open opportunities for the role players of the Spurs. Boxscore reflects that very well.

I don't know if you support them but kudos anyway. Fenerbahce will play against Spurs in two days as well but I don't expect a close game this time, we have some problems and missing players.
