El seleccionador nacional fue protagonista en Radio MARCA en el día de su cumpleaños. El preparador de Brescia repasó toda la actualidad del mundo de la canasta junto a Vicente Ortega y Carlos Santos.
El reto de defender título en el Eurobasket
“Es un grupo muy difícil, el objetivo es dar la cara y competir. Nadie piensa que podamos realmente defender título en el sentido pleno de la palabra, eso lo tenemos asumido y claro entre todos, pero como siempre queremos competir y sorprender, el reto es de mantener una competitividad digna a pesar de estar probablemente en el momento más complicado de nuestra transición generacional”.
Santi Aldama, nuevo líder
“Le veo muy bien, creciendo en cosas que ya hace bien, empezando a mostrar mejora en las cosas que todavía tiene que sumar para aspirar al nivel de excelencia de un grandísimo, cosa que yo creo que puede alcanzar y creo con confianza que su agencia libre se resolverá bastante pronto y me sorprendería que pasara de la mitad de julio”.
La temporada de Juancho y Willy
“Juancho está haciendo una temporada fantástica, puliendo su juego y haciendo repetidamente las cosas que sabe hacer. Espectacular temporada y esperemos que la remate bien; Willy creo que está dando muestra de algún paso adelante. Ha sido otra temporada bastante complicada, pero últimamente le estoy viendo bastante bien y esperemos que pueda terminar bien él y su equipo”.
No puede no ser una buena noticia para el baloncesto europeo la llegada de la NBA
El aterrizaje de la NBA en Europa
“En general, no puede no ser una buena noticia para el baloncesto europeo, todo lo que aporta valor, riqueza y profesionalidad, que es lo que más puede aportar la NBA y es lo que realmente marca mucha diferencia. A partir de ahí veremos, todavía es muy pronto para poder entender exactamente cómo va a quedar todo, pero estas noticias son siempre positivas siempre y cuando el baloncesto europeo sepa digerirlas aportando su identidad y sus tratos diferenciales”.
La nueva generación y el gen competitivo
“Eso no viene con 22 o 23 años, eso viene con más tiempo, hay excepciones porque alguno de la generación anterior tenía este rol de una manera muy marcada y además, habían crecido juntos jugando. Hay que tener paciencia porque todos estamos esperando que estos chicos lleguen a ser referentes en sus equipos y en cuanto lleguen a serlo, podrán aspirar a ser referentes en la selección. Ahora mismo están ganándose minutos de bastante calidad, pero todavía estamos lejos del status de referente, que es lo que necesitamos, jugadores con un nivel de personalidad y liderazgo muy marcados para llevar un poco al resto”.
Compatibilizar cargos
“Mi contrato en la selección está abierto, no para esta temporada. Por supuesto estoy abierto, puedo permitirme de considerar realmente sólo lo que me motiva y me interesa, es la suerte que tengo. Estoy con ganas de poder, si surge la oportunidad adecuada, de poder entrenar a un club”.

NBA playoffs: Draymond Green mocks Rockets’ Jalen Green in confrontation after Warriors’ Game 3 win
You will not be surprised to hear the Houston Rockets have a bone or two to pick with Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green. It was true during Saturday's Game 3, and quite apparent immediately after the game.As the buzzer sounded on the Warriors' 104-93 win over the Rockets to take a 2-1 series lead, Rockets wing Jalen Green approached the elder Green at the logo, and was angry enough that teammate Fred VanVleet had to step between them.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAs the younger Green was led away, his veteran counterpart made an unmistakable gesture of painting his nails, a dig at something the Rockets star is known to enjoy doing. That didn't help Jalen cool down.Both players downplayed the incident after the game, with Jalen Green attempting to minimize Draymond's contributions during the game:"It was just talking. He can't really do much […]
Wendie Renard on her career so far: ‘It’s an adventure which starts with these players’
Wendie Renard went straight to the dressing room. She was fuming.Farid Benstiti, Lyon Feminin’s head coach at the time, had taken a then 17-year-old Renard off in the 61st minute, four minutes after the French side had conceded an equaliser in the first leg of a UEFA Women’s Cup (today’s Champions League) semi-final at home against Sweden’s Umea.AdvertisementIt was March 2008.The teenager tossed a hairdryer across the dressing-room floor and kicked a bin.“I was really angry — not with anyone else but myself,” Renard tells The Athletic. “It was unacceptable to make that kind of mistake and concede a goal in that way.”Renard had tried to protect the ball by the corner flag but Brazilian forward Marta picked her pocket. Renard then fell over and Marta cut the ball back to Madelaine Edlund, who levelled the score. Renard felt ashamed […]
Brutální noc. Čeští tvrďáci v kleci likvidovali soupeře, zápřah pro doktory
Kdo galavečer na západu Čech sledoval, zajisté se nenudil. V brutálním stylu se předvedl například věčně usměvavý Daniel Škvor. Německý rival Marc Doussis ho sice hned úvodní úderem poslal na lopatky a s českými ambicemi to vypadalo bledě, domácí čahoun ale zavelel k obratu a po rychlém ataku vytasil ukázkové K. O. Soupeř bezvládně padl k zemi a na nohy mu museli pomáhat zdravotníci. V akci byla také nosítka.„Doufám, že nemá nic s čelistí a bude v pohodě,“ přál si Škvor bezprostředně po duelu a zmínil také pasáž, jež jej málem stála triumf. „Byla to školácká chyba, ale stane se. Když jsem vstal, tak jsem cítil, že to otočím. Super výhra,“ radoval se holohlavý muž a zmínil i možnou odvetu s šampionem polotěžké váhy Willem Fleurym, který s ním loni zametl ve druhém kole na arm-triangle choke.Andrej Kalašnik a jeho KO. Maté Kertész má takovou velkou bradu, tak by to byl zločin netrefit. Video: Sport.czA co […]

Brasileiro feminino: Expansão do campeonato nos próximos anos pode impactar qualidade na elite
Em 2027, o futebol feminino estará em destaque no Brasil. Além de sediar a Copa do Mundo, o país terá a primeira edição do Brasileirão A1 com 20 clubes, quatro a mais do que atualmente. O anúncio da expansão do campeonato, feito em janeiro, levanta a dúvida: a infraestrutura e a qualidade técnica dos times vão acompanhar esse crescimento? Nas seis primeiras rodadas da edição em disputa, foram marcados 158 gols, média de 3,3 por partida — no Brasileiro masculino, por exemplo, a média no mesmo período é de 2,3. O número expõe o abismo entre as equipes que brigam pelo título e aquelas que lutam contra o rebaixamento: já são seis jogos, 10% do total, com vitórias por quatro ou mais gols de diferença. Mas a frequência de goleadas vem diminuindo: caiu de 22,5% em 2019 para 12,5% em […]
