Injuries weren't his biggest issue. It really seemed like he just stopped caring.

A couple of years ago they signed a washed up Odom and now this. Oh Lord....

Teodosic, DeColo, Bourousis, Llull, Heurtel, Printezis are all in their primes and play in Europe. I dont think those names are worse than the ones you mentioned. I think the level of competition is pretty much the same. Baskonia itself is definitely not as good as it was in 2000s, while they still had prime Scola and Macijauskas, but just this past season they reached final 4 and they had Bourousis and Hanga playing best seasons in their careers.
