I think you are too optimistic. Efes guys needs to face a critical question and this is if they are going to keep Larkin or not. Considering the market situation it seems they have no other choice. The whole front court needs to be exchanged.

Maybe I am, we'll see. Obviously changes after a bad season can lead to better, same, or worse results. As janketa says, coach is of the utmost importance so my level of optimism varies depending on who they bring.
 
What was Mijatovic's mistake tonight?

Osmani 11 minutes, Jones 17
If you didn't watch the game just take a look on boxscore

If you watched then you should know how momentum of the game left on Virtus side. Who is guilty for that? You, me or Mijatovic maybe?
 
To keep Larkin and Clyburn too long on the bench on the fourth quarter. :cool:

Hm. Clyburn was actually horrible in the 2nd half. I think he had 2 points. In the 4th Q he was the worst. Larkin is too passive and he was 5/14 which is crazy. He ttok 14 shots and it seems to me he was passive.
 
I know you are the biggest Fener hater, and fener is your obssesion. I bet you wake in middle night with dream like Fener lift EL trophy

Not quite fair. I'm pretty sure Edgar's obsession is the 2015-16 Darussafaka team. :D

Whaaaaat? Osmani had problems with the fouls. When he earned 3rd foul he took him off. Then in the 3rd Q he got 4th. From all big guys Jones actually maybe played the best. Oturu was blocked 4 times in 2 minutes. Missed all ft's. Couldn't catch the rebound. Pleiss for some reason took only 2 shots. Wilis is Fiba Europe Cup level. Obviously you didn't watch the game.

The other guys couldnt even compete. There was no guarantee but many players including DT were totally overwhelmed.

Gaziantep 17-18 actually. Ruud, Armand, Patrick Miller, Freimanis, Lyons, Can Cinko....World wasn't ready for that team.

Even though Hollatz missed all 3 pt shots I blame Mijatovic for not giving him more time. Also Bryant should be on the bench. Everything else he did pretty much okay. It's just no one couldn't make a shot except Clyburn and Osmani in the 1st Q. Darius Thompson is one huge mistake as it seems.

hm.. Osmani wasn't fouled out and this what you wrote is without any sense, Jones is clown, below EC level, Can's product
 
Current Efes is the team without fundamentals. Larkin is a scoring bunny. If he misses, game over, he can't offer one thing on the court. Never liked Clyburn chuker, taking horrible shots, nearly tunnel vision. Efes 8 assists, Virtus 21. Enough said. They don't have players like Krunoslav Simon any more. He had fundamentals.

Who plays player with 3 fouls in the 2nd Q?! With 4 in the 3rd? Absolutely no one! Even players with 3 fouls are subbed off in the 3rd Q and Osmani had 4. Pleiss was torched by Shengelia and even Zizic. Oturu looked like the biggest amateur. 4 times blocked, I think 3 times when he tried to dunk and all of that in couple of minutes. Jones actually played good defense. Funny you didn't mention Larkin who was running from the ball in the 4th quarter and had 5/14 shooting night. And in the possession to tie the game he didn't take the shot but hey, he made the turnover. Mijatovic did okay job, Clyburn did fantastic job in the 1st half and your boys Oturu and Larkin didn't do anything except problems for Efes and are main reason with Bryant why Efes lost.

They don't have coach

Two shots of Hollatz were last seconds shots but one was totally unnecessary. It was correct to keep him out in the second half.
 
They have Tomislav Mijatovic and after the past ten weeks the whole of European basketball knows his name.

They won some games tnx to roster he had, but I never changed opinion about him. He is mouse without balls
