European Competitions 2023/24 - Signings & Rumours

yeah. looks confirmed. I guess I was overrating him. By a lot.

This is not a jab towards Maccabi but I can see how some players might be willing to take the first option out of Israel at the moment. Maybe he feels like he doesn't have the luxury of sitting around and negotiating.

This is very strange. Why should he accept his offer? I thought he could get double of that money.
He was also rumored with Real, I think, which is another reason not to go to Milano.

Not a reliable source for me, but if it's true... suicide.

if it was Efes side who swerved away, yeah this is idiotic.
Alimpijevic so far has shown that he can be great at tournaments, but his league performance has been nothign special. that's why I was hoping he would take the NT position, not Efes.

In pursuit for new Ataman they will lose next 20 years. Even Ataman was more luck then smart move

Pascual was secure option with high possibility of success, at least to be regular F4 contender, without gambling

Josh Nebo to Milan, for 2 years 1.6 million.

efes management is priceless 3rd time in a row EL experiment, though Alimpijevic isn't rookie like those two previous clowns, but his score was 11-19 that season
Pascual is an institution for many coaches

I would like to have Alimpijevic as Efes coach than Pascual. Many local players made the next step him as their coach.

Copying a tweet I saw:
Despite the conversations with Xavi Pascual, Efes took another course and the favorite coach for next season is Dušan Alimpijević, I was told. The other option is Spanoulis.

Wow, Roka’s bringing out the passion in this forum like only few other topics

He has more play making than Wilbekin, I agree, but he is by no means pure play maker. He's a scorer essentially, but he can't really facilitate at he highest level.

i think his prime didnt start yet.
if we manage to sign him, larkin will dominate next 4 seasons imo.

unlike clyburn, larkin knows that he must change his game.
knows that he is not quick as he was, physically not at his best.
this year playing much different than previous seasons.
he doesnt force in offence. instead of chasing the shot, prefers waiting the right shot for example.
or, he can prefer pass rather than drive or shot in crucial moments.
his evolution goes being a floor general.

[Straight forward]

larkin is not same kind of player with wilbekin.

larkin is the best pure playmaker in europe, or decision maker, or whatever you say.

he can play any role you want.

Jokubaitis is the exact same case with lekavicius. Good for zalgiris, where it doesnt matter if you end up 1st or 18th. Pretty bad for team with bigger ambitions and pressure.

Comparing him with doncic or rubio is one of the funniest things ever written in here. and there are many diamonds written all these years...
