Argentina defeated Puerto Rico and qualified for the 2012 Olympic Games in London

RedactorR — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 15:09:59 +0000

Argentina, September 11, 2011

The national basketball team achieved tonight another victory defeating with just a pair Puerto Rico, 81-79, and qualified for the Olympic Games of London 2012.

The tight victory in the second semifinal of the tournament in Mar del Plata allowed the team to met Julio Lamas’s objective: go to the Olympics next year to try to rejuvenate those laurels harvested in Athens in 2004 (gold medal) and Beijing 2008 (bronze).

The numbers of the meeting in every quarter held at the Polideportivo Islas Malvinas, with 8 000 spectators were: Argentina 29-24, 40-44, 66-60 and 81-79.

Luis Scola, was the local quintet’s top scorer with 27 points. However, Emanuel Ginobili was the key in the third quarter (provided four three-pointers in that stretch) and finished the game with 23 points.

Argentina, which did not show its best tonight, will face Brazil, also qualified for the Games defeating the Dominican Republic, by 83 to 76.

In the start, the Argentine team showed a good efficacy in court shots (13 of 17) with Scola always taking the initiative.

Puerto Rico, meanwhile, began to manage the game: “overplayed” Ginobili, covered him good and appealed to the perimeter attempts to score points.

But the Puerto Ricans had an unexpected extra supplement: took many rebounds in the basket rival (Renaldo Balkman only caught 5 balls on the boards) and they began to shorten the difference and even finished the second quarter winning 44-40.

In the beginning of the third period, two doubles of Daniel Santiago for Puerto Rico allowed them to take advantage of 8 points (48-40). The situation was complicated.

However, the heart of Federico Kammerichs and a triple left-hander done by Ginobili allowed Lamas’s team to tie it 48-48.

Then the meeting became a sort of “triples competition”. “Manu” Ginobili (4) and Prigioni (2) provided baskets from beyond the 6.25 meters. On the other hand Barea (19 goals) and Holland (9) made it possible for Puerto Ricans to stay in the game.

The left-hander Ginobili was unstoppable (he made sixth consecutive triples) and the difference was of 10 (74-64) when only 7m. 30s remained. In the mid of the last quarter Argentina was 9 ahead (77-68).

However, the visitors came to prevail in attack with rebounds and dangerously narrowed the difference (77-75), when there only remained 4m.17s.

The meeting continued even and with 1m. 56s. remaining, A double scored by James paired the board (79-79).

So, two points, one of Prigioni and the other from Ginobili, put Argentina ahead, but the closure was going to be held by Puerto Rico, in the absence of 4 seconds. But Barea shot uncomfortable and the ball bounced off the basket. Argentina celebrated the classification to 2012 Olympic Games in England.
