Euroleague Basketball


Once again this year there are 24 teams competing for the Euroleague title. 24 teams from 13 different countries. So my big idea was to ask 24 journalists or bloggers from 13 different countries to write a little preview about their local teams.
And the tricky thing : ask them for an estimation of the team’s overall record at the end of the first round. Now we’ll see who knew his team better. Another way to test our European contributors was to ask them for their Final 4 and title favorites. I’ll keep track of the records and see who’s got Nostradamus blood in his veins.
