OT: Euroleague playoffs start TONIGHT!

yaronlev · Post #1 » by **yaronlev** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 8:38 am

Games:
Barcelona (HC) - Panathinaikos
Caja Laboral Vitoria (HC) - Maccabi Tel Aviv
Olympiakos (HC) - Sienna
Real Madrid (HC) - Valencia

Best of 5 series (2-2-1). Winners go on to Final Four.
(HC) - Homecourt advantage, host games 1, 2, 5 if necessary

My bet is on Barcelona, Maccabi, Olympiakos and Valencia

We can decide on who we're going to use our first round pick on.

Cool, i didn't know they started this early. Olympiakos with Rasho/Nielsen/Teodosic (and crybaby Spanoulis) is gonna rock the joint.

I hope I get to see some games

Maccabi did beat the Raps.

Are there any prospects on these teams? Like Vesely or Valanicious (sic)?

I honestly think three of those teams would beat the Raptors in a 7 game series.

Valanciunas' team, Lietuvos Rytas (Lithuania), and Vesely's team, Partizan Belgrade (Serbia), both failed to qualify for the playoffs in the Euroleague.

Aside Nikola Mirotic of Real Madrid there aren't many other prospects. Young players (undrafted ones) rarely play significant minutes on these top Euroleague teams. Don't underestimate European basketball.
