Well, it’s dead of summer in Europe and residents now what that means: long vacation time! BallinEurope is in the ‘States at present — to do my bit in settling the NBA lockout (not) — but new posts will be back beginning this weekend. Just so you know…


tobias, got a question to ask.
who will be the first european to coach in the nba? ettore messina (lakers asst) or igor koskosov (12 yr NBA asst coach)
@ john marzan
the name sounds Russian or Serbian? where is he from?
despite some russian team and some balcans team play the Euroleague,
Russia and the former-Yugoslavia countries are not members of the EC.

Messina will be the first!
