And finally, that Sunday at the end of the month of April arrived. The one that would never again be stolen from the Canarian biography. The decisive match was not against French rocks of safe bets, but against eight brave and valuable players from Turkey, at the service of Commander Filipovski and commanded by the player Theodore , with the sixer Korkmaz . On the wire of the tight finals, Grigonis in MVP mode, Vidorreta 's wall and a decisive triple by Davin White hitting the last minute, marked the prelude to that party. 70 years and 40 minutes later, Iberostar Tenerife lifted the first continental title in its history.

A couple of hours later, on those Email Data decorated balconies of the Laguna town hall, players who are no longer on the island were jumping, singing, laughing...celebrating. Some, like the charismatic Kirksay or the decisive White, have even ended their careers. Others are still honored every time they step into the Santiago Martín as visitors, like the heroes of that random Sunday.
Beirsen , dressed in gold in the eternal rival; San Miguel , happy and triumphing in his house, accompanied by the perpetual Fran Vázquez . Ferrán Bassas guiding new projects in his northern adventure, Nico Richotti as a golden seasonal worker in Fuenlabrada or Aaron Doonerkamp , already settled in the taronja lands. Niang , testing his fortune in also warm farms. Some, now involved in larger battles, will be recognized at some point, like Tim Abromaitis or Marius Grigonis . Others now earn their chestnuts on the other side of the pond, like Will Hanley in the Uruguayan league.
Giorgios Bogris missed everything so much that he has returned. Each and every one of them settles forever in the collective memory of a hobby that enjoyed like never before, in the middle of the dull lagoon that permeated everything. At that moment and for once, history stopped being a litany. For once, basketball was the excuse.
Along the way, the historic tables of the Alexandrio of Thessaloniki , the money of Tony Parker in Villeurbanne, were left behind. Defying the host's bad omens, the diligent Canarian leaders won the option of organizing the first edition of the new competition at home.
La Hamburguesa looked beautiful to receive the four classified teams, the endless string of ties, and invited personalities. The semi-final against Marquez Haynes ' Reyer , Bramos or Ejim from Malaga ended easier than planned and with only 58 Italian points. A sign of the Canarian team.
