Point is different, coach, who plays final tomorrow, had the need to express concern about European basketball struggling. It looks to me that problem is really big.
And no, it's not the same problem in football, Europe has with Mbappe and Haaland fantastic young players. Problem is only in basketball because we're developing young players for Nba. For example, Slovenian Jan Vide scored 27 points for Real against Barca in ANGT tournament yesterday. There are only 2 options, he will be good enough for Nba with 20 years or he won't ever be anything special. No chance that he plays in Europe, if his development goes like many expect. That's why you have players like Madar getting rising star award. This award is a joke nowadays, really talented 22 years old players should be in contention for MVP.
