Since this thread as not been updated since long ago, let me tell you that...
1- TAU won a great Spanish Cup in Madrid
2- ...however, same as last year, they lost the final of the League. Last year they lost the 5th game at home after a Real Madrid three-pointer in the very last second. This time they lost 3-0 to Unicaja. I don't know which one makes a worst defeat
3- Barcelona and Real Madrid had a poor season. No titles, no challenges. If anything, Real Madrid took the pleasure of beating Barcelona in the last 8 of the Cup
4- Joventut won a European trophy, the ULEB Cup. Some sort of UEFA Cup in football terms

I'd like to make a correction here. Dinamo Moscow have won the ULEB Cup and Joventut won FIBA Europe Cup [url="http://http"]here[/url]. There are too many competitions in Europe now: FIBA Europe Challenge Cup, FIBA Europe Cup, ULEB Cup and Euroleague.

Thanks for the correction... So many things to sort in this sport. You can see in my posts I like basketball but I get very critical with the way it is organised and ruled. Somehow I fear they will kill it
Years ago there was a European Cup, a Cup Winners' Cup and Korac Cup. Then FIBA created the Euroleague, the Cup Winners' Cup was named Saporta Cup for a couple of years and then European Cup, to add to confusion. You could hear fans saying "we won the European Cup, that is the Cup Winner's Cup"
Then the big leagues created their own mess, including the ULEB Cup which is the "European Powerful Leagues UEFA Cup" if you want. The other is the FIBA UEFA Cup
Then they wonder why media atention in countries like Spain or Italy, where oassion for basketball is high but not as high as for football, gets diverted away from the sport

They did. He went to Korea this year. I have a picture of me with him after the 2005 season finale. I remember him from when he starred at UMass (University of Massachusetts Amherst). If I am not mistaken, they were the number one team in the nation at some point in his senior year (1994-1995), but his teammate Marcus Camby took money from an agent, and their accomplishments from that year and the next (a Final Four appearance) were vacated. It did not help that the coach, John Calipari, is one of the shadiest recruiters in history. He is a good coach, but he is not exactly one for character building, although Lou Roe is an outstanding citizen.
