Like Barcelona, Real's roster nearly same with last years' Top 16 Real. Tomic out Slaughter in was major switch of pre-season. Interestingly, the key matchup of first step of F4 can Tomic vs Slaughter. Slaughter should stand behind Tomic solid otherwise he will defend one two size bigger than him,Jawai.
Like Barca and Oly, Real has 2 player in top 10 T-con Rank. However not like the other F4 teams, Real's first 5 players in T-Con are originally like to play outside. It reflects Real's offense exactly. But nonbeing Bigman threat will their soft spot in El clasico.
When you look play-maker analyze, There is a big difference between Real and other F4 teams
Azerbaijan Airlines is number one hot-shooter so far according our shooter analyze. And real shooters will their main power in F4. Against Barca with no Pete Mikael, Real can play more minutes with 3 guard that means Pascual can hold Sada in game and we all know what will happen in the other side of court right?
Real has one of best rebounders of all time Euroleage, Reyes. He still best man in Real at this age. They have also Mirotic in top 10. They have to struggle against Barca's big boys to balance rebound.
Real's TDR rates are amazing like Barca. If you consider Real's pace, their defense stats are impressive. They can bite opponents when they want.Here is their TDR progress round by round.
Real's TOR number are decreasing while Euroleague progresses. That can be explained by opponents strength and sharpened defenses. And also you can check out Real's TOR progress against EL average.
And, Play Oriented Winning Function analysis;
Against fierce rival Barca, 83 magic number. Over 83 number of play odds will return to Real Madrid. As for potential match-up against Russians they should increase the game pace even more because 83 would probably not enough. However against Oly, 80 number of play will be enough in favor of Real.
Real started Top 16 with 9-1 record but they didn't look like 9-1 team. They won 2xZalgiris, Alba, Pana, Brose games with less than 5 margin.So and so they lost 3 game streak and lost first spot and again luckly they matched up Maccabi (If Pablo Laso had selected opponent he would select Maccabi I think). They swept Maccabi as all we know with average 16 margin!. Under consideration of all circumstances Barca look like half of a step ahead in El Clasico.
