no one talks s I will get the honor to be the 1th
Group A:
Barca
Siena
Cibona
Fener
Zalgiris
Asvel
Group B:
Oly
Partizan
Unicaja
Efes
Rytas
Qualifier1
Group C:
CSKA
TAU
Maccabi
Roma
Olimpija
Qualifier2
Group D:
Pao
Real
Milano
Prokom
Khimki
EWE Baskets
So let's start: Group A I guess Barca and Cibona wont encounter any difficulties to finish at the top, I'll take the chance and say it will be Mp's to finish at 1th place...
Group B - Oly will probably finish 1th unless Efes and Partizan will make some noise. anyhow I don't see Partizan so strong this year after the departure of Novica and others. Rytas no matter what is always a good rival for any team and can make lots of problems in it's home court.
Group C - Death group, with old days rivalry in the form of Maccabi and CSKA it will always be a bloody battle though CSKA won't get stronger while Maccabi got an Improved roster.Tau also will rebuilt itself after the departure of Racko, Pit and probably Prigiony. it will be interesting to see CSKA after Messina age and the new Maccabi and TAU. Rome will try to make some noise this season but I don't see them do well. and ofc there is Olj, they didn't do well last seasons but I hope to see them step up to the top 16 this season.
Group D - the second death group with the current champs PAO, Real with Messina the great and Khimky with it's stars... good and interesting battles are expected.
