With a Foot Inside the Plane with a Foot Inside the Plane 08 FIBAAMERICAS.COM SPECIAL ISSUE 08 Feature Prigioni, key in argentinean reaction Argentina missed guard Pablo Prigioni in the II Marchand Continental Championship Cup as he was negotiating a deal with real Madrid. After signing the deal, Prigioni reported to the Argentinean team for the FIBA Americas Championship but despite that they had two straight 2009 FIBA-Americas Championship September 2, 2009 losses, but many adjustments have given them three straight wins. The guard has averages of 11 points and 6.8 assists in five games, where they have won three. In the first win Prigioni led the Argentineans with 19 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists. "We turned the situation because with two losses it looked that we were in bad shape and we wouldn't qualify. With these wins we have a foot in Turkey," said Prigioni who will be in Real Madrid for the next two ACB seasons with an option for a third year. In their wins Argentina had a better offensive performance by Paolo Quinteros, Federico Kammerichs, Andrés Pelussi, Leo Gutiérrez and Prigioni who have helped Luis Scola who ended as the MVP of the 2007 FIBA Americas Championship. "We are now playing as a team, it is shown in the results, the game, everything. This is not something new," said Prigioni. "It is very important this change in our game that gives us a guarantee in the games that follow," he added. About his expectations with a new team in the ACB, the player is happy for signing with Real Madrid which historically has been one of the main teams in Spain. "There are high expectations, it is a team that has been down for the Photo: José Jiménez/FIBA last 12-15 years. This is a new project and makes everyone dream." In 347 games played, Prigioni averages 6.7 points and 3.7 assists with Fuenlabrada, Alicante and Tau Cerámica since the 1999-2000 season.

The player, born in Ciales on September 4, 1934, was quickly adopted in Ponce and he died there in February 18, 2007 from diabetes complications. He was loved for winning six championships in ten tries with Leones de Ponce in the Superior League. Pachin was the first player who scored 5,000 points in the league in a time when scores were low. he was named MVP twice in 1958 and 1960. He was only 5'8" and a bit chubby but he was a master passing the ball and also scoring with Ponce and the national team from 1954 until 1966.

Smart, relentless, and a defensive stopper at birth. Just like many other point guards from Argentina, he takes pride in locking up. He’s a pass first, score second point guard. He reminds me of a smaller Pablo Prigioni when it comes to passing. He’s a better scorer than Pablo in my opinion. If you look at typical Argentinian guards in Prigioni, Laprovittola, Bolmero and Campazzo, they all are defensive minded with the ability to pass at a high level and score. I question Campazzo’s size but with the wide spacing in the NBA, I believe he will be able to get in the lane to dish or score with a floater over bigs or just simply getting by someone. He’s cat quick with the ability to hit the open jump shot. I’ve played against Campazzo several times and know how he doesn’t back down from a challenge. He challenges you. He’s like the David against Goliath with a Napoleon complex. A real floor general as he’s the motor of the team.

Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde Luis Scola (4) será la figura de Argentina en la batalla por un boleto directo hacia Beijing. Foto: AP No lo sé con certeza, pero imagino acuartelados a todos los miembros del equipo CSI de Gil Grissom, ese carismático personaje que conocimos hace un tiempo por la pequeña pantalla, porque seguramente temblará la tierra en Las Vegas con el inicio hoy del Preolímpico americano de baloncesto masculino. No exagero. Después del fútbol, ningún otro deporte colectivo sacude tanto a nuestro continente como el baloncesto, y la prueba es que encontramos equipos «machos» en el Norte, el Caribe, Centroamérica y Sudamérica. Así, diez selecciones buscarán esta vez dos boletos directos hacia los Juegos Olímpicos de Beijing 2008, o la posibilidad de disputar la eliminatoria intercontinental del próximo año, donde estarán los conjuntos que se ubiquen ahora en los lugares del tres al cinco. Con un nuevo dream team donde sobresalen rutilantes estrellas de la NBA como Kobe Bryant (Los Ángeles Lakers), Carmelo Anthony (Denver Nuggets), LeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers), Jason Kidd (New Jersey Nets) y Amare Stoudemire (Phoenix Suns), quienes deben integrar la alineación titular, Estados Unidos sale como gran favorito de la competencia, aunque no hay que olvidar las humillaciones sufridas por los norteños en los Mundiales de 2002 (sexto lugar) y 2006 (tercero), o en los Juegos Olímpicos de Atenas 2004, donde se llevaron un bronce que no les supo a nada.
