I'm a bit iffy about Navarro, he's not his old self any more, he's getting on the older side now. Kristic and Kirilenko are rightly so in the first team. This year round I think Diamantidis spot may be contested vs. Teodosic. Milos has had a pretty good year, yet Mitso is slowly on the decline, most probably age-related as well.

I think it's the fact that there are no younger stars emerging... and if they do, they are off to NBA after a good couple of seasons...

First team:
Erazem Lorbek
Andrei Kirilenko
Henry Domercant
Dimitris Diamantidis
Bo McCalebb

Second team:
Nenad Krstic
Mike Batiste
Juan Carlos Navarro
Vasilis Spanoulis
Milos Teodosic

Just to make sure, I didn't put Lorbek in first team because both of us are Slovenian, but because he has been dominant force for Barcelona this year. Two pointers, three pointers, free throws, pick and rolls, rebounds, blocks ... everything. He really was incredible.

I agree that Lorbek was dominant this year and he had his best season in Euroleague. He has the biggest impact in Barcelona after Navarro.

But Krstic had an even better season. He was easily the best center this year.

I think his spot in the 1st team is reserved.

Also, there is no way Domercant will be in the first team and I think Bo won't be as well because his team didn't qualify.

Of course they may choose Bo because of his eye popping stats this season!
