Real Madrid won ULEB Cup 2007 !!!
Real Madrid added the ULEB Cup crown to its extensive collection on
Tuesday night with a 75-87 win over Lietuvos Rytas Vilnius at the
Spiroudome in Charleroi, Belgium.
Felipe Reyes (203-F/C-80) turned in another heroic outing to keep
Madrid close in the first half and then
Charles Smith (193-G-75, college:
N.Mexico) erupted with a record-setting performance in the second
half to lead Madrid to victory. Smith joined a select list of stars as
the ULEB Cup Final MVP as he finished with 19 points by making six
three-pointers - a record for most triples in the final. Smith tied
another final game record with 3 blocked shots. Madrid set team records
with 10 threes and 6 blocks. The result gives Madrid, the winningest
team in European basketball history, its first European title in a
decade after the club came up short in the ULEB Cup final here three
years ago. Real now has 14 continental titles - including eight
Euroleague championships
