Every one is talking for Fenerbahce/ Ulker which already seems a force to be reckoned with, but the team that really scares everyone around Europe at this point is non other than Real Madrid. Not only the players of coach Laso are winning, but they are doing by exposing opponents.
So far, Real Madrid is the only team in Europe averaging more than 90 points in its offense. To be exact, Real has the best offense in Euroleague (91.3 ppg) and also the best in Liga Endesa (93.33 ppg), followed by Fenerbahce in Euroleague (87.1 ppg) and Gran Canaria in Spain (89.33 ppg). If that wasn’t enough, Real has also the third best defense in Euroleague (65 ppg) and second in Spain (68,67 ppg).
Yes the sample is still small, since we are taling about three Euroleague games and three Liga Endesa games, but a 6-0 start in both leagues with an average winning margin of 25,48 points in total is scary as hell for every opponent.
