Polish team, not Russian.
Sorry for my last mistake.. Sad

Now, coach Kurtinaitis extends for one more year with Slask http://www.ulebcup.com/ulebcup/home/news...y-together

Also, Aris is after Blagota Sekulic, the ex-PF of Real Mardid.. Thup

And maybe, there's gonna happen a very good signing, but it needs time to get on.. Cool
Aris BC will play in the Uleb groups, without participating in the pre-qualification games..

Also, Fortituto Bologna and Benetton will participate also in Uleb, by taking the ''wild cards''..

Mariupol adds Uche Nsonwu and is after Dimos Dikoudis http://www.euroleague.net/ulebcup/home/n...7/448/item

Tartu Rock signed former Zalgiris player Tanoka Beard. I am not sure in what condition he's now but he could be useful. It should be fun to see him in Kaunas playing against Zalgiris.
Pamesa Valencia sacked coach Katsikaris and GM Johnny Rogers.

And hired Neven Spahija until the end of the season + 1.
Pamesa Valencia removed Dimos Dikoudis from the team. The reasons are unknown.
The reason is that he first objected the firing of fellow-Greek coach Katsikaris and then asked for explaining from the assistant coach for not using him at all at the next game. He is used to leave Valencia anyway, this is his 3rd time. He'll get over it.
Gregor Fucka signed a contract with Fortitudo Bologna.
Rimas Kurtinaitis wants to sign Oliver Stevcic from Anwil.
ASK Riga are suffering from serious financial problems. They already let 3 of their starting 5 players go.
Lietuvos Rytas should announce the signing of an American point guard who is playing Greece this week. They needed a good point guard desperatelly. Even though Chuck Eidson was able to cover that position, it was taking his attacking options away from him.
Any idea who? I can't think of any myself.
