Scariolo: "We are happy to be here and ready to compete"
“The key is always to find the balance between emotional and rational aspects,” added the coach during the Final Four presentation.
Sergio Scariolo and Facundo Campazzo represented Real Madrid at the presentation event of the Final Four 2026, held at the Onassis Foundation in Athens. Our coach said: “We are happy to be here and ready to compete. It's very pleasant to be in a Final Four. The four best teams have made it, and we are in a basketball city with many fans and a lot of passion.”
“The key is always to find the balance, to distance yourself as much as possible from the emotional side and focus entirely on the game plan. If you lean too much on emotions, you might lose some control, and if you lack that extra motivation to perform at the highest level, you might lose something. The secret is to find the balance between the emotional and rational aspects in different areas.”
