MVP Kevin Punter with 26 points made his presence felt early and often as the Bronx, New York native scored in bunches throughout the 40 minutes of play. Tim Ambromaitis tried his best to pull Tenerife into contention with 18 points but it wasn\u2019t enough on this night as Sasha Djordjevic\u2019s squad took home the championship. Amath M\u2019Baye dropped 16 points, Pietro Aradori scored 9 points and Mario Chalmers drilled home 8 points including the key basket with almost a minute remaining in the game.

Djordjevic\u2019s team continued to hold the advantage 38-24 after 20 minutes thanks to continued fine play by Punter and M\u2019Baye while Tony Taylor also made his presence felt. Iverson was the dominant scorer for Tenerife as the South Dakota product dropped 8 points over the first two quarters.<\/p>\n<p>Punter began the second half just as he started the first by scoring a slew of buckets. However, Davin White cut the lead to just 9 points 48-39 midway through the frame. But Bologna didn\u2019t fret as a parade of players hit free throws to take a 58-44 lead into the final quarter. Abromaitis caught fire to cut the Bologna lead to 62-54 but Pietro Aradori answered back with authority. With the advantage down to just 6-points Mario Chalmers hit a turnaround jumper to seal the championship and send Bologna home with the Champions League title defeating Tenerife 73-61.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13828\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/C23DDAF5-04FF-4094-BC4A-2F4D4A43B770.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13828\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/C23DDAF5-04FF-4094-BC4A-2F4D4A43B770.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13828\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Champions League<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n<strong>3-Pointers<\/strong><br \/>\n1) <strong>Kevin Punter was a man on a mission<\/strong> this weekend as he scored and scored and scored to pick up the MVP honors. He began the game by scoring three triples over Lucca Staiger as Tenerife Coach Txus Vidoretta\u2019s gamble starting the veteran German guard didn\u2019t exactly work out. Punter again made his mark in the second half as he ok the bull by the horns to make sure there would be no doubt who would win the title as he\u2019s now picked up two in a many years. What a great player. Coach Djordjevic spoke about his star, \u201cHe was the star of the competition and MVP of the Final Four. I\u2019m very thankful to him and proud to have been his coach.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13833\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/071715E0-593D-482D-9812-95826FE4BE6D.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13833\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/071715E0-593D-482D-9812-95826FE4BE6D.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13833\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13833\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Champions League<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n2) <strong>My big belief is that the team with the superstar player wins the one game championship and not a balanced team.<\/strong> Sometimes the theory works out and other times not. In this case it did as Punter is not just a star, he\u2019s a true superstar and head and shoulders above everyone else. The Bronx born baller spoke about what his secret to success is, \u201cI\u2019m just constantly locked in. My mentality is that no one has a mentality like me. My mentality is through the roof. No one works like me in my opinion. Moments like this I like to strive in and let God take care of the rest.\u201d He also talked about winning the title, \u201cIt feels amazing. This is why you work hard in the gym, this is why. It pays off.\u201d The big question now is, where will Punter be next season after winning back to back Champions League titles, \u201cWherever God takes me. I\u2019m just going to do my part and control what I can control. I\u2019ll just continue to put the work in.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13830\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/E49CB96B-9824-4EC6-A5E8-8D405E2205EF.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13830\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/E49CB96B-9824-4EC6-A5E8-8D405E2205EF.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13830\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13830\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Champions League<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n3) <strong>Stagnant ball movement throughout the first half<\/strong> with Bologna dishing out 5 assists and Tenerife 4 made for some hard to watch basketball.

Things didn\u2019t get much better as they wet a horrific 3\/25 overall from long distance and 14\/50 overall. You\u2019re just not going to win the game with those types of percentages. Was it Tenerife\u2019s lack of offense or Bologna\u2019s shut down defense? Lucca Staiger gave his thoughts, \u201cThey we\u2019re hitting a lot of difficult shots and we didn\u2019t make our shots, even our open shots.\u201d Colton Iverson also shared his feelings about the game that was, \u201cThey came out and played physical from the start and aggressive.

He knows the game inside and out and was himself a great player. He also coaches the Serbia national team as well and will be heading to the World Championships this summer. But back to what he did after joining Bologna so late in the season. \u201cIt\u2019s very satisfying to come in very late in the season but in the end we stayed united, humble and work hard everyday. We didn\u2019t quit on each other after some unexpected losses in the Italian League. We picked ourselves up and we managed to get the cup.\u201d Kevin Punter also commented on his coach\u2019s philosophy, \u201cCoach says defense wins championship and that\u2019s what happened. We got some stops and we came down an scored and were able to do that for 40 minutes.\u201d But the highest compliment was paid out by Mario Chalmers, \u201cJust being with Sasha is amazing as he\u2019s a defensive minded coach and it reminded me of how Pat Riley runs the Miami Heat.

Who would have ever thunk it that Mario Chalmers would be playing in Italy. Amazing where you can meet NBA Champs. But he was here in Antwerp and hit a big, big, big time shot for Bologna that sewed up the win for his team. The former Miami Heat Star talked about the shot, \u201cWe were struggling a bit in the second half. I saw my moment to attack and I saw the spot where I wanted to get to. I live for big  moments like that. I was able to hit the shot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Djordjevic spoke about his leader, \u201cThat was a really big shot, and he\u2019s the emotional leader as he showed it on the floor. On the other side he had a couple of bad decisions and he should have played it better as a point guard and not as a guard. We talked about it and he understands the game perfectly and he\u2019s the one who really played with his heart.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>What did the coach tell the point guard from his point of view? \u201cHe just told me to settle down and play the game. I was pressured in the first half and I was just trying to do everything myself and not take my time. Coach told me to settle down and enjoy the moment and not try to make the moment. That was the biggest thing for me.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_13834\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ADB8B2DB-320C-42A8-B694-6ED6C66B2CA2.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13834\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ADB8B2DB-320C-42A8-B694-6ED6C66B2CA2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13834\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13834\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Champions League<\/p><\/div><br \/>\nThe MVP Kevin Punter reflected on Chalmers bucket, \u201cHuge.

I knew we had it.

I was able to get to my spot and knock the shot down.\u201d He also spoke about joining the squad just a couple of months ago, \u201cIt means a lot to me. Just for me coming back from an Achilles tear and just being through what I had been through it means a lot to have an organization take a chance on me and bring me out here. It\u2019s a dream come true and a blessing.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Some of his former teammates were in touch, \u201cI got a lot of messages from my guys back home.

It means a lot to hear from those guys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Where does his future lie? \u201cWhatever happens, happens and I\u2019m going to enjoy the moment with my team and when the time comes I\u2019ll think about it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bologna captured the 2018\/19 Champions League title with a 73-61 over Tenerife.
