the President of RBF Andrei Kirilenko, a full and solid dozen seasons played in the NBA for “Utah jazz” (2001-2011), and then for “Minnesota Timberwolves” (2012-13) and “Brooklyn nets” (2013-14), still has an amazing, pure igrice “flair”. In February of this year, deep well before the start of the global pandemic of mers after a series of efforts “Cabinet” character, he got to “cyberbunker” was officially recognized by the Ministry of sport of the Russian Federation as a “sport”. But then nobody could assume that in April 2020, the stages of the championship of Russia on interactive basketball will be the main events in the coordinate system of the “best ball game,” as likes to say the commentator of TV channel “Match TV” Roman Skvortsov.
Now the championship of Russia on cyberbunker was not virtual, and it is absolutely valid reality. Came even before that in the first stage of the tournament under the auspices of the RSE, sitting at home at the computer, played a leading player in the national team and Krasnodar PBC “Lokomotiv-Kuban” (President Andrey Vedishchev) Dmitry Kulagin. It is at the preliminary stage, took eighth place in their conference NBA, presenting “the Golden state”, and in the first round of the playoffs (1/8 finals) defeated “technical” nature. He won the tournament Muscovite Sergey Morozov (“new Orleans”).
a very proper idea of the RBF at each stage of the national championship cyberbunker needs to be someone from the “cushion” and these players. This so-called VIP party. In the second part of the virtual national championship this role was two-time champion in the new Olympic discipline “3×3 basketball” Dennis Bergman. He chose the NBA, “Memphis”.
In the end, Denis Bergman played a weaker Dmitry Kulagin – he and his “Memphis” has occupied only 11-e a place in the “Western conference of the NBA” and missed the playoffs. In the tournament final with a knockout Yuri Gordeev (“Portland”) in a series to two victories beat the best in the “Eastern conference” Vladimir kordyukov (“new York”) – 45:36 and 35:34.
