EL 2023/24 Play-Offs: Monaco - Fenerbahce

[janketa]

How Biberovic and Dorsey can play together? You obviously play one at the time as they are too similar. Not that I try to advocate Saras.

No, Dorsey shares minutes with Wilbeclown. Biberovic plays SF position with Pierre

Though Wilbeclown and Guduric take minutes from Madar too, cos Saras obviously gave up on him

Solid performances by Guduric and Calathes. Papa did good job finally. I wrote "I believe the outcome of the 3rd game will make us happy, let's just not make awful start unlike first two games" on one of our amateur basketball channels on youtube. Hopefully the team didn't dissappoint us in this game. The next mission is to pull the plug at home.

Good job Fener! I didn’t watch the game but this win was expected as Fener is a completely different beast at home. One more to go!

I suppose FB will end the series in Istanbul like I predicted.

No, I mean Dorsey and Biberovic are merely a shooters (for now at least), and Saras loves to have 2 perimeter ballhandlers. So one ballhandler at 1 and merely shooters at 2 (Dorsey) and 3 (Biberovic) is not that good puzzle unless your ballhandler is Doncic. So there's no really room for both Dorsey and Biberovic having extended minutes, that's my point.

How are we assessing Mike James right now? A lot of people favoured Monaco to make the Final 4 again this season and he's the leader.

He was always a loser, he is still one and it wont change in the future. You cant win a shit with him.

I checked it again. I voted 3:1 and not 3:2. I am a basketball god

Yes but you wrote this

I think that FB will make it to the final four in game 5. The last games of Monaco were not very promising.

Never mind, happens to all to forget

We lack of ballhandlers, in fact there is only Calathes, so I think his only mistake is using of Wilbeclown too much and giving him too much freedom. Other then that I consider we never had better coach. Saying that, I am absolutely aware that Obradovic was here.. Just I am stuned with the fact he still believes that we can win games in clutch time with Wilbeclown, though even past games showed that we can win only when he is injured

I would prefer to close games with Calathes and Guduric (when he's on and he's not always on) as ballhandlers and to have Biberovic at 3 when he's playing fearlessly and hitting his shots. That to me seems a good recipe. Guduric brings more fundamentals than Wilbekin. Saras simply tries to get from Wilbekin what he suppose to get or the only things that it's possible to get. He's that kind of player, you need to give him freedom. High risk, high award kinda combo scorer.

What would you do if Fener wins Euroleague whit WilbeKing scoring 35 pts in the final game including some bomb as a buzzer beater for the trophy?

1st of all I don't think we can win EL with this roster. 2nd scoring 35 points by any player who has freedom to shoot unlimited times is possible ,but in that case we lose games. We win just games when he take less then 10 shoots, Such as 1st and 3rd games, not tnx to Saras master piece, but injuries

Like Straight wrote (me and Levenspiel many times too), playing like that is pure gamble, but if Fener by some luck reach final game then gamble is more less ok in one single game.
So my answer is I would endure that somehow but just in title game

[janketa]

If I would have a choice to pick and bring one player from Monaco that would be Diallo. Such useful player with basketball IQ
We don't need SF though, Biberovic is enough plus Noua as back up. I hope that Saras will be smart enough to sell Pierre to some EC club where he belongs

Diallo could be interesting to Pao and Efes, cos Pao is weak on that position and Efes needs replace for Clyburn
