Real Madrid - CSKA Moscow



Montepaschi vs. Barca are probably games of the week. This time I even think that Prokom will defeat Zalgiris because Willie Deane is out for two weeks. Although he wasn't good in Euroleague so far but he can be really dangerous.



Real Madrid - CSKA could be a good game but Real is in a big trouble recently after some bad results so even though they play at home, I think CSKA could take an easy win.
I really wonder what will happen in Madrid. I think they have a quite good roster with some youngsters like Llull and Hervelle. It looks like Hosley fits easily to the team, now it's Massey's turn. But CSKA has a giant roster and they are absolute favourites.



By the way, I'll be at Abdi Ipekci to watch Efes game, but I'm not so optimistic because of Kasun's injury. He's out for at least 3 months.



Montepaschi-Barcelona game is another good game. I expect a big performance from Ersan after having been selected last month's MVP.
Nice to see you on the forum again mate. Real must do their best to beat CSKA and it will be extremely hard to do so. I think the position of their head coach will nto be safe if they lose heavily.

Mensah-Bonsu will miss Joventut's home game against Fenerbahce Ulker in Group C on Thursday. Until a diagnosis is finalized, it is not known when he might be able to return to action. Joventut has had to begin the Euroleague season without its teenage star, point guard Ricky Rubio, who suffered a preseason wrist injury. Joventut carries a 1-1 record after two games in Group C.



all in all juventut win is doubtful
It will indeed be difficult for Joventut to beat Fenerbahce because of the reasons listed above. Pops was a big force for them this season. That's why I picked backup center from Joventut for my Euroleageu Fantasy Challenge team <!-- sSmile -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif[/img]<!-- sSmile -->
i see some weaknes in greek clubs,maybe its because a lot of fast changes in teams ,new players,no time to play together so we see these poor results
Panionios won the game at Istanbul, as I've expected. Old Baxter was enough to kill us inside, Kalampokis had a career night and Bootsy "Most Overrated Player in EL" Thornton just watched him. My English is probably not enough to explain the bad situation in Ataman's side, but we need a better solution than Dwayne Jones when we struggle Kasun's injury.



Chris Warren and his Avellino made the surprise of the night.



5/6 for tonight in my predictions <!-- sWink -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/wink.gif[/img]<!-- sWink -->
Awesome win for Panionios, I think Efes didn't even see that coming

Panathinaikos need to improve their game and fast...
Unicaja ALWAYS disappoint. Always.

I was in the game last night and it was one of the most thrilled games I have ever been at.



1. Maccabi's crowd made a real difference.

2. Brown and Arroyo are true winners and don't affraid of shooting important shots.

3. Fischer is a big suprise.

4. Le Mens played fucking awsome!

5.David bluth' was unstopable until Jason Williams decided he had enough and got into David's jersey, next time u watch a Maccabi's game pay attention to no.12 in yellow, mostly on defence.
