Euroleague Quarter Finals

[KWSN-Men]

Also, McIntyre: the guy should be in the NBA, best player of the quarter finals.

Damn, McIntyre is good..........he reminds me of Tim Hardaway back in the day.

Yeps, McIntyre was awesome, I agree that a clever NBA GM would be talking to his agent right now. I also consider Olympiakos the underdogs in the semis, they're just underwhelming even when they win, let alone looking dominant and unstopabble like Panathinaikos often does. Great season for Siena though, and if Lavrinovic was healthy I think they could have won the QF. Madrid dissapoints for a change... 13 years without a F4 presence.

Barcelona's depth will probably put them in the Final 4, with so many scorers more often than not there's someone with an extremely hot hand.

Pretty game. I think Barcelona is amazing, but TAU is a more regular team. It's complicated to predict, but if Barcelona's centers do a good job (stopping Splitter), they will win.

Can't really make a prediction about this game, but i think Barcelona is a much better equipped team to deal with CSKA in the Final Four semifinal than Tau is.

[Joana]

I see Barcelona as having a very slight favouritism. Tau really needs to control the tempo of the game, control the boards, keep their best players away from foul trouble and especially to defend Barcelona's transition game. I think Splitter and Rako are going to show up for this one, but Tau will need Teletovic to make his triples and to control Illyasova.

I think Barça will win but I hope I'm wrong, a F4 without Tau wouldn't be the same thing.
