Euroleague Final Four (I attended)

So no one else to tell this to, but I have been living in Paris for about a month now....and my girl got us tickets to the Euroleague Final Four Championship last night. Barcelona vs Olympiakos.

Was able to see Juan Carlos Navarro dominate, Ricky Rubio play decently but not too impressively, and even something you UMD guys would love....Terrence Morris play very well (who apparently is affectionately called Superman by Barcelona fans).

Also saw Linas Kleiza and Josh Childress (best player on the floor IMO) on Olympiakos.

Was a great game, great soccer like atmosphere.......but the level of play was nowhere near the NBA. A ton of passing and not much athleticism. But still a great sport to watch over here. I plan on attending as many local games as possible next season.

Check out the highlights, "Baby Shaq" is in-them as-well. I would have loved to have seen a
Sofoklis Schortsanitis vs Shaq face-off, but I guess that will never happen.

Terrence Morris as "Superman"? There must be something lost in the translation of the word "super" and/or "man."
