They say that whatever teacher you sit with, you will learn such letters.
Such is the case in his case Sylvain Francisco. This summer, the French guard took the big step in his career by signing with Bayern Munichwhich gave him the opportunity to play in Euroleague for the first time.
However, the season before that he was at Pigeon bwinhaving as a coach Vasilis Spanoulis. Apparently, the term under the direction of “Kill Bill” had an impact on the 26-year-old guard and this he proved in the away match of the Bavarians with the Villerban.
The match had a sensational development and was led in the second overtimewhere there Sylvain Francisco… reminded Vassilis Spanoulis. What did he do; He took the ball when it was “burning” and with decisive three-pointerskept his team “alive” in the pursuit of victory, which came with a score 101-100.
The French guard was not the best – based on statistics – for Bayern, having 10 points, but he was undoubtedly the big MVP, as the pink card came with his own… signature.
About a minute before the end of the second overtime, Francisco at that point had 0/4 three-pointersbut nevertheless rises behind the 6.75m. to tie the game at 97-97. In the next attack, the former “green” Paris Lee sends the hosts back to +3 (100-97), but the French guard at 18.4” hits again on a shot outside 6.75m. with his opponent Joffrey Lauvergnefor the new equalization to 100-100!
In the meantime, Francisco himself has said several times about how much he admires “Kill Bill” and that he has many videos on his mobile phone of his exploits from his rich career on the European dance floors… After all, that’s exactly what he did. his coach until last year when he was competing. It may be that in a certain match he was generally wrong, but when the ball… was hot, he asked for it and got the victories!
Check out Francisco’s defining 3-pointers:
