Kouros Monadjemi, president of the new league, said that the next edition of the NBB is schedule to begin this year in October 25. He also said that the number of clubs could go up (15 teams played in the first championship). Here is the source (in portuguese).

Celtics to sign Brazilian C Vitor Faverani

Flamengo finished the first half of the season with 0 losses. They tied their own record of 17 straight wins they got in the 2008/09 season. They are dominating right now. Link

It was a nice tournament, after all. Magnano's will stay for another olympic cicle, I think things will continue to progress.

It looks to me that Brazil still misses a finisher. There's no proven leader (at least in international level) on this team. Maybe they can go on with a team style, if they all buy Magnano's philosophy, but sometimes you need someone to trust the ball in the last minutes.

The test last night against team USA was really good. I'm also very optimistic about Brazil's chances.

Thanks a lot for the pictures, Gustavo. It's so good to see everyone together, practicing, I'm quite optimistic about this team.

In my opinion he will make it. But we'll find out soon.

Nice interview. I like how Oscar puts the decision in Magnano's hands and says he will respect it.

Things are not going well in Franca, they are having a pretty bad start.

Lot's of foreigners, unfortunally not enough NBA players. :P

Couldn't catch the tournament, but it seems he didn't play as expected. Anyway, this looks like a talented generation.

Interesting sign. He seems to have 3 good season in Argentina with Atenas and Olimpico.

It's going to be really hard to get the olympic spot now without Nenê, Leandrinho and Varejão. The only way I see things working for Brazil is Magnano's finding a way to make Brazil play like a real team, the players would need to buy into his style 100%.
