The meteoric rise of this club is simply amazing. I remember some years ago when checking on AJ Guyton status after leaving Hapoel and later later skipper, founding out he is playing for this then unknown club was quiet a surprise. In roughly one year time they are in at point of filing a 5200 seat arena (which they are playing at only from this season) in eurocup quarter final and wining on the road In Spain in front of 14000 fans like its no big deal. Did they even played in European competitions last season? At the Domestic front their loss to Zadar at the cup semi final was considered a huge surprise and they look like the favorites to win the league title when all traditional 3 big powers seem weaker then ever, especially the traditional strongest one of the last years. Seems Science as of two or three years ago. How did they do that, fairy tail of unknowns or just money investment? Without knowing anything about it looks like money from a rich guy who is fan or that sort, because the roster seem to include a several of Cibona's later year players, young and old.
If they do win the title and not play in the euroleague next year, this yet another example of the Euroleague contract system inadequacy.
