ROMA - Il talento offensivo del “Mago” Bargnani (23 punti, 11/21 al tiro) e la regia illuminante di Deron Williams (16 punti, 11 assist) hanno acceso la prima e storica partita del campionato Nba in Europa. Nell’Inghilterra patria del calcio è approdata l’Nba sempre più globale con la sfida finita 103-116 tra i Toronto Raptors e i New Yersey Nets. I circa diciannovemila spettatori che hanno riempito l’avveniristica O2 Arena di Londra hanno accolto con calore l’esibizione tra due squadre in piena fase di transizione.
L’arena North Greenwich, with twenty bars and restaurants, a cinema with eleven rooms, two museums and connected perfectly with the rest of the city has offered a taste of what will be the London Olympics. This was also the occasion to test the popularity of basketball in the UK with a few standard-bearer (Luol Deng Chicago Bulls) has not backed by a solid movement. During the race the hard-working speaker explained several times to the public the rules of the game.
"The cheering was evenly divided - at the end of the evening told a smiling Deron Williams - the 
new experience is more great discomfort for the time zone adaptation. I think it was an important spot for the dissemination of the NBA and basketball. I'm passing through New Jersey? No, they are just a few minutes of dialogue with Mr. Prokhorov to feel the desire to build a franchise from the title and the idea excites me to be the key pin. Williams, newly arrived from the Utah Jazz, is the first hit the market after major Russian tycoon Prokhorov waste excellent Melo Anthony and LeBron James. Among the various projects of the new property is to transfer the team to Brooklyn (NYC). The Nets (18 won, 43 lost) and Raptors (17 won, 45 lost), fourth last, respectively, e terz’ultima nella Eastern Conference, hanno poco da chiedere a questa stagione e in campo si vede.
La partita scorre senza sussulti per tre quarti: 81-78 al 36’ per una Toronto decisamente rivedibile in difesa, ma animata dall’atletismo di DeRozan (30 punti) e dalla mano educata di Bargnani. Deron Williams predica grande pallacanestro nel deserto tecnico degli attuali Nets e innesca un volenteroso Brook Lopez (25 punti). Avery Johnson pesca dalla panchina le energie giuste con l’ex Lakers Farmar e l’ex canturino Sundiata Gaines, sì proprio lui, per prendere l’inerzia della gara, 97-104 al 39’. Deron Williams con una tripla mette il sigillo al primo successo, che interrompe a streak of six straight defeats, Knitted Nets. The Raptors pulled badly (34% overall) and give to rebound (41-36). 
Statistics Bargnani award season (21.8 points per game) in Toronto now become the so-called man-deductible. But four years after the selection in the Draft, and a great path for personal growth increases the curiosity to see the "Wizard" compete in a different context with the most ambitious of these Raptors, where it can also develop other aspects of the game as well as the proven ability to the basket.
From Wednesday, after landing at Heathrow airport yawns among many, the days NBA star of London were full of meetings, training sessions, group photos against the backdrop of Tower Bridge and some concessions. Slovenian Vujacic, talent discovered by Tanjevic and companion of the beautiful tennis Sharapova, for example, has at Stamford Bridge after Chelsea-Manchester Utd. O2 Arena tonight is to replicate the classic back-to-back NBA. In the near future some races of the regular season in Europe could become a real landmark, but are used at sports facilities and a first-class logistics. Paris, Berlin and London fall in the standard NBA. Italy?
