As for Sofo-good decision by Blatt, there are fouls that are whistled because it's hard to judge with such a big man but most of the fouls whistled on him are a complete joke, it looks like Israeli refs get payed per Sofo foul..
Teo-dislike his coach? He came as a player in the bottom of his career, a huge head case that wasted his potential and Blatt worked so hard on him and saved his career, the only reason Sofo was in the all-Euroleague 1st team is Blatt and Sofo knows it. His behaviour, eating habits and pretty much everything is so different from his time in Oly, I think Sofo would thank Blatt for this decision, definitely not dislike him because he doesn't like playing when being so restrained by the joke refs here in the league of midgets. If you'd hear and see how much respect this big guy has for his coach you'd know a huge thing needs to happen to make him dislike Blatt. And no worries he'd still play 2 games per week, you forgot the Adriatic.
Smooth Criminal- Scheyer had a rough start both in preparation and Adriatic but in 'chance cup' he had much more playing time looked more confident and his shots started falling, I believe he can slowly become a solid 10-15 mpg player this season in the EL and assuming Maccabi will bring another SG, that's also what is needed from him.
