Originally posted by markkanen View PostAlthough I agree with you, I wonder why are the other greek clubs on such a low level? PAOK, AEK, Marussi, Aris were once in Euroleague, and now they are just rubbish. Greek HEBA league is just that final series, all other games are boring and predictable.
To cut a long story short current model of top clubs in europe is not sustainable unless of course you are lucky to be part of football clubs that earn billions per year(see Real,Barca).Even Zalgiris with their modest budget and full 14k arena in every match need public money of Kaunas county to survive.I expect more bubbles to burst soon.

I'm glad you raised the question of where those two guys would play though. It's hard to imagine them in another team at this point.

I don't know about Oly being the biggest club in Greece (that's not my area, sorry), but I disagree with the ones saying that Oly will be dissolved or get much weaker. Remember, not that long ago, in 2009, Zalgiris was in even worse situation. It was on the verge of bankruptcy, being as much as 11m euros in debt at the time. But it has survived.
So I imagine the same will happen to Oly - such important club cannot just simply fade away, even though some Pao fans would be delighted to see that.
It will find its way to stay relevant.

Originally posted by Mindozas View PostYes, if i.e. Zalgiris can do very well alone in Lithuania as basketball here is religion what so ever and no other sport come close, then I think Greek basketball needs PAO-Oly rivalry. It attract lot of attention. Other than that PAO probably would do well alone as a club with EL being main competition and local league coming to full attention only with PO, like Zalgiris does now

Every team has it's ups and downs
Olympiacos is having some financial problems at the moment, but will bounce back eventually. There is no question about that
As for...dissolving, I wouldn't worry ( or wish ) about that. Olympiacos does not have a raving lunatic as an onwer
Moving to the ABA league ( hopefully ) will bring a nice fresh approach, away from the toxic environment of the dpg infested greek bball
