I don't like the geographical divisions. It seems unnecessary.

I'm all in for something as new and different (for Europe) as this. To be honest, I don't know if I'd like that in Euroleague though.
It's interesting.
But it really can be argued that the East-West thing is unnecessary, like @skangles said.

Makes sense to be honest. I just don't think I'd wanted that to happen in the Euroleague. Maybe they're experimenting on Euro Cup (= inferior league), and if they like it and fans like it, they'll do that in the Euroleague as well. I hope not though.
