Answer: Euroleague 2017 winner
- The push that CSKA had this year is unprecedented, at least in duration, for the Euroleague. It was not worth it to finish 2nd, 3rd and by force it would be with a referee in the straight, nor of course to wipe Baskonia. The 2 matches were won by the referees themselves and the 3rd (the 1st in Moscow) was judged to a significant degree. This obviously should scare Fener.
- CSKA is a team, but Fener is a better team. Augustine is good, Hines is good too, but when the others have Udo and Veseli, people laugh, Sinan Erdem's painters should be painted yellow. If, I say, if I played Freeland and it was Freeland before injury, CSKA would be different, the story would be different.
-The team that should tremble and I think it trembles is Efes. He disfigured it in the cup, it is the most athletic team in the tournament, it is the only tall team that can face the Fener monsters and of course it is a Turkish team. we all know that in civil wars the combat data can often be overturned.
-The mouthpiece of the drug addict, Prasini, makes the situation worse in PAO, which essentially leads to its dissolution. That is, he tells us that some PAO players committed disciplinary offenses and that is why the whole team was punished ?? They say this seriously and publicly (to support their employer) and no one reacts to the wider PAO family. If some people committed disciplinary offenses, they should be punished. What has the others got to do with it? People are laughing, the walls are laughing and now it seems that the biggest responsibility for the downfall of PAO lies with its unrelated basketball world, which has tolerated this situation for so long, and it's its fault Kalathis, James and Pedoulakis's choices.
-I will repeat for the umpteenth time that PAO's roster is excellent, classes higher than, say, OSFP, but that is not enough in basketball. Because I mentioned OSFP, OSFP has a serious administration, which may no longer put money in the team (while Trakis puts a lot in fact) but knows basketball, it is a serious administration. He has a good coach that PAO does not have. He has patience, a close-knit team with terrible chemistry, which PAO does not have. And let's go to the key point that in my opinion differentiates the two groups, and turns PAO into a team of the plate (we are talking about the top level of the Euroleague now), while OSFP in a highly competitive team: The selection criteria of the players for the training of the roster. OSFP takes players not only on a competitive basis, but also on the basis of behavior (they look, for example, if he has a family and many other things for his personal life and his psychosynthesis) and how well he will fit into the wake-up plan that already exists. OSFP does not hire players to fit the team on them, it hires players to do the job in the existing plan. PAO on the completely opposite catastrophic edge, took players solely on the basis of their ability and value. He could also bring Cristiano Ronaldo to play in the team because he is a player .... He got the best players in the Euroleague last year (after De Colo and Delaney who could not get them) James and Singleton. He took Bourousis who was the best five last year in Europe by far. They matched PAO. Except for Sigleton, who wants to talk about whether he fit in and under what conditions, the other two, of course, did not fit. But he took them because they were gamblers and he would adapt the team game to them. Amateur things that do not fit into a team with the history of PAO. I still have a lot to say, but I think I started to get tired.
In conclusion, I am convinced that the biggest responsibility for the downfall of PAO lies with its people. Trakis puts his good money, without taking it back, he is shockingly irrelevant to basketball. The people of PAO tolerate this combination, which many like very much, so this situation will be experienced by his team.
If at some point the odds for winning the championship are reopened by OSFP and it is over 1,45, they are obviously worth a huge bet.
