Regarding "poor Balkan teams", you should be happy that it is that way not actually make fun of it. If any of the Balkan teams are able to keep our best players home and add an import or two, it is Game Over for EL. Welcome to the 80's all over again.
For example this year Vardar won the handball Champions League by beating Barcelona and PSG, backed by a Russian billionaire guy who wanted to build a strong team. He got the cream of Serbia, Croatia, FYROM and few imports. With a budget still significantly lower than what those powerhouses did. He was a contender right away and won it after few years. Don't rule out that there will be a guy soon who will try that in Basketball. That will be a game changer in EL.
