Incompetent clown Fener management failed again to bring pg in this awful situation for the club. Gherardini is capable to bring just washed players from Italy and that is his limit. For Maledon or Montero we need someone like one we don't have anymore, he is on my profile picture. There is no hope for Fener this season

Not very high on Liotopoulos but Karakostas is surely a talented guard.

Is probably the most talented Greek guard in the youth but they are still too young to draw conclusions. Its too still for Avdalas to compete in a team like PAO. The destinies of Mantzoukas and several other prospects should give advice. Samodurov should also play somewhere else. FB and PAO are probably the worst places to develop as a serious prospect.

Grandpa Errick McCollum to Fener is strange but it's ok in this awful situation with all those injuries.

Sfairopoulos extended contract with Zvezda until 2027.
Well deserved.
Last season he had 8 wins in a row against Zeljko Obradovic (with team he did not scouted), this season he is doing great job in EL with Zvezda, 11-8 score so far and we play next 5 games at Belgrade.

Banchi will become new head coach of Efes, Mijatovic will be assistant. Ok, I can understand this decision but Banchi?!!! Where did he have elite result? He made good job at the WC with Latvia and that's it. 1/4 of WC is his best result. In Armani he was so bad. Like it's understatement to say he was bad there. In Kuban even worse. In Virtus had good 1st half of the season then barely secured play-in spot. We will see but anything above play-in will be miracle for Efes.

I think the idea was to bring someone, anyone, before the season is lost. Because it would be lost.

Season is almost lost, this was too late, not like last season when Can was fired in late January, but more less it's the same.
Withot HCA it will be almost impossible to reach F4 knowing that stone home teams will take 1st 4 spots, Oly, Pao and CZ are almost impossible to beat on their court, the weakest homecourt is maybe Monaco.

Ok, but Banchi? He couldn't control Clyburn and now he is expected to deal with all these players? In his whole career he doesn't have one really good achievement. Efes is just one win from the 4th spot, all signings are playing really bad or average at best, Larkin was missing almost whole season and Efes is over 50% wins...idk, we will see but for me this seems very stupid.

I won't comment Mijatovic anymore but guy is realy weird. at least
After loss against besiktas again and again the same mantra: "We need to correct our mistakes, which we will do, and we will fight in a way that befits the Anadolu Efes jersey". Day after this words they fired him.
Paradox is that I agree with him, every person has to work on his mistakes, but he never did that. He was just big mouth all the time, one of the biggest manipulator ever in EL. Larkin fired him

Situation is changing in Efes, PJ is decent signing for position 2-3, which could push Bryant of the ball. Bryant took Clyburn's last season role, as wild shooter and iso maniac.

I didn't ckeck all waived players, but Williams from Detrot looks decent guard with the brain unlike Mays. We realy need a new guy or season will be lost very soon

Efes is stronger than Red Star, they shoved that when they trashed them in Istanbul in last quarter. They have so much offensive talent like Larkin, Bryant, Beabois, new guy Dozier, Poirier, Smits/Osmani are good shooters. Banchi is good coach, he did miracles with average team like Virtus last season.

Yeah, Efes is stronger then CZ on the paper, but with clown on the bench they played like street boys, who grabs the ball 1st he shoots. I never said Bryant isn't talented but freedom he had is suicide for any team.
CZ is one of favorites for HCA because they have by far the easiest schedule in next 15 rounds

I guess it's all about the available options.
Relegation of Mijatovic back to bench, but above his previous role, is a step forward for all sides, imho.
Banchi indeed does not have a bright career but he has the HC rank and he now has 1/2 season to prove he belongs in the EL. I suspect Efes is already looking at options for the next year, but they wanted to salvage something from this year, as it was obvious that the team would not make the play-in otherwise. You could see it clearly in the games we lost vs Asvel, Monaco, Paris, etc. where the team collapsed entirely for long stretches.
