Korać Cup 1983-84

(From 28-09-1983 to 15-03-1984)

 

 

COMPETITION SYSTEM

·          34 teams (best qualified clubs in domestic leagues) playing knock-out rounds on a home and away basis. The aggregate score of both games decides the winner.

·          The sixteen teams qualified after the knock-out rounds enter a 1/4 Final stage, divided into four groups of four playing a round-robin. The final standing is based on individual wins and defeats. In case of a tie between two or more teams after this group stage, the following criteria is used to decide the final standing: 1) one-to-one games between the teams; 2) basket average; 3) individual wins and defeats.

·          The group winners after the 1/4 Final stage qualify for a 1/2 Final knock-out round (X-pairings, home and away games).

·          The final is played at a predetermined venue.

RESUMEN (SUMMARY)

Tras una salida en tromba del Orthez (13-8, min. 7), de la mano de un infalible McCullough (3/3), el Estrella Roja decidió refugiarse en una defensa en zona para intentar frenar el ritmo anotador de los franceses, pero la entrada en pista de Freddy Hufnagel posibilitó un nuevo estirón francés (32-20). Al descanso se llegó con una clara ventaja de quince puntos para el Orthez (49-34), gracias en gran parte a la eficacia anotadora de McCullough (19 puntos en esta primera parte con un 80% de acierto).

 

Tras el descanso, los yugoslavos salieron dispuestos a igualar el partido y, gracias a una fuerte presión en toda la pista, lograron recortar diferencias (49-40). Pero un nuevo estirón de los franceses situó el marcador en 64-48 en el minuto 27, y a partir de ese momento el partido entró en una fase de claro dominio del Orthez que, a falta de seis minutos, logró la máxima diferencia de todo el encuentro (83-58) y pudo vivir un final relajado.
