well , considering the name that are on maccabi's tought i can say that finally somebody there understood that we need shooters. don't know if u read my first posts here. the main problem we had this years (exept arroyo this year was that we don't play an european basketball style. we don't play the basket all great teams play. every great team play a perimetral basketball that consider the game under the basket as important as the attack from outside, the tipical yugoslavian style, the one who dominate in europe since the marvellous yugoplastica. we play just the american style and pini is a coach who like the american under basket life. so in this way was easy to read maccabi offensive choise and even was hard for us to defend the perimetral style of other teams like unicaja, madrid,barca,because we even are not trained to defend the perimetral choise. with ely gaines(do u think he will stay next year?) and hopefully with fischer we are ok under basket but we need option form outside and other player who "wanna live on the line"from 3 points. in europe that's the way every team play. we can't hope in anything if we will have this same options of this year. i'd love lavrinovic, begic, kelati and edison but you have to spend money for them ,i'd be surprised about it. is hard to think macca will not build a good team ,but also is hard to imagine we can spend a lot.
