San Lorenzo gave a show and got into the quarterfinals

After an excellent start with two wins as a visitor, what was expected in Boedo was given. San Lorenzo beat Mogi Das Cruzes 107-78 and advanced to the next phase of this first edition of the Basketball Champions League Americas, where they will be playoffs with series to the best of three games.

The "Cyclone" had already beaten the Brazilians in Sao Paulo, and then defeated Biguá in Uruguay, so he got baggy, but with the obligation to celebrate before his people and achieve the round pass. And the public responded because little by little Roberto Pando Sports Center was filling, there was a good climate and the team responded inside the court.

The first time was a triple festival for the team led by Facundo Müller. Two starters by Facundo Piñero, two others by Marcos Mata, then two by Nicolás Aguirre and the strawberry of dessert, four by Luciano González for a final 10 of 13 in long distance shots (he finished the first half with 12 of 17). Yes. A monstrous effectiveness for the Argentine four-time champion.

Mogi went out to play the tour away from home with two very important casualties such as Alexey and Joao Pedro, both injured. And as happened in Uruguay last Monday, Luis Gruber and Danilo Fuzaro were the clearest of Mogi within a rather erratic landscape. The inmate contributed 14 points, while the shooter scored 23 points.

San Lorenzo gave a show at the height of the competition: he was very strong in defense, never lowered the intensity and above, shone in attack. Boedo's did 70! points in the first half, making it clear that they are serious candidates for fight for the title of the BCLA. The local distributed the goal and his top scorer was Luciano Gonzalez, with 24 points.

Another fact to consider was the amount of assistance given by the homeowner with 22 against 15 of Mogi. It's more, made differences with the many provided by the substitutes: 41-27.

When Mogi tried to poke his head, a player other than the local always appeared to change the plans. Everyone played at a high level, Müller was able to rotate the squad at ease and the team dazzled own and strangers. San Lorenzo is in the next phase, although he is missing a match against Biguá, and Mogi must continue fighting.
