The Geiger Counter- Real Madrid v. Virtus Roma
Ante Tomic played today. His team Real Madrid beat Virtus Roma 74-56. Not quite sure how European basketball works. This Euroleague appears to be tournament format with teams playing once a week. Is Euro ball a collection of tournaments, or do they have a 'regular' season like the NBA? I'm also not certain the differences between NBA style and European style play. If anyone knows answers to these questions, I'd be interested to know.
Tomic's Stat Line
In 23:44 minutes He had 12 points, 7 rebounds, 1 steal, 3 assist, 0 blocks and a turnover. Not bad. To put those in perspective of the other players in this game, the leading scorer had 13 points, leading rebounder had 8.
Next game is in a week vs. Brose Baskets.
