What a crazy Top 16 ....

[TalkBasket]

Partizan 78-75 Montepaschi

Fenerbahce 59-60 Aris

*Tau Ceramica 87-84 Lietuvos Rytas

Unicaja 62-61 Barcelona



Suprises continue. TAU is the only team which booked a place in quarter finals already. Rytas were unfortunate to lose but Aris saved their chances of going through. We can only guess what would have happened if Petravi?ius and Nielsen were able to play.



We'll see what Žalgiris can do tonight against Real. They must win if they don't want to get in a difficult situation.

yesterday i watch great game PARTIZAN-SIENA,so strong was partizan belgrad,and again Lithuanian team lose on last minutes.

Rytas were unlycky again

when we have rimas grigas like head coach we can forgot about quarterfinals

[Black Urum]

I was at PAO-Efes and i must admit Efes put a better fight than I expected.

Fortunately PAO no longer needed to cover the -10 margin with which they lost in Turkey... the important thing now is to beat Siena in OAKA next week and the next important thing is to beat them with +9 or more if possible to go for the top spot in order to avoid TAU with a home disadvantage...

Great win by Olympiakos who is showing the first signs of the Yiannakis influence on the team. Gershon could never make such a great win away, especially in the Yad. This win turned the group upside down and also kept Zalgiris alive in the 2nd spot chasing... for now...

CSKA is finally reminding the real CSKA after strengthening the squad with Van den Spiegel, Khryapa and the come back of Smodis...

[TalkBasket]

Žalgiris 69-83 Real Madrid

Lottomatica 54-82 CSKA Moscow

Maccabi 82-87 Olympiacos

Panathinaikos 74-65 Efes Pilsen

when we have rimas grigas like head coach we can forgot about quarterfinals

Indeed. I said that so many times so I won't comment this time. Thanks to Oly who saved Žalgiris' chances at least in theory. I wonder what would have been the season like if they had a good coach.

[GuyOFK]

I hoped for A pao lose.. and My dear Maccabi did bad.. what a crazy top 16

next week Maccabi is going to win in Madrid..

[rikhardur]

Great and important (psychological) win for Oly. They were back from the tomb away and in Maccabi's arena. Remarkable. Congrats, I really didn't expect that.
