Any fans of the Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague here?
I recently got into watching the league & would love recommendations on good websites, social media accounts, podcasts, etc. that offer coverage of the league.
I see that FIBA kicked them off the Euro qualifiers for forefeiting remaining matches against Serbia, Lithuania and Turkey, but there's no information on what actually happened, and why the Albanian national team made the decision.
Hello everyone. I am going to be in Odesa for 3 weeks starting September 20th. Will there be any basketball games going on during that time? I tried looking online for a schedule but I couldn’t find anything. Any help is appreciated!
I know that people from Balkans are very good at sports, but I noticed that Albanians are mostly represented(and you are great) in Football but I haven't seen you in any other sports honestly, while your neighbours have some good names and results in other sports also.
Why is that? Are people don't give a f about other sports or it is lack of investments etc.?
Curious if anyone’s tried this before. A league I’m in is a very large friend group that has multiple people trying to join every year. This past year, we agreed to add 2 teams, making it a 14-team league. This worked out okay, but many people including myself did not enjoy the struggle of piecing a team together from players I had never heard of on the waivers each week.
My idea to solve this predicament is a 20 team league made up of two conferences that would be completely separate leagues on the app. This would mean that an owner in each league could have the same player. I don’t think we would have a problem finding 6 more people.
These leagues would play out separately throughout the season and each have a 4 team playoff starting week 15. Then, on week 17, the two conference champions would play each other to decide the overall league champion. This is likely not possible through the app, but we could compare their scores outside of it.
If anyone has any suggestions or experience with this please leave a comment.
I just created a Yahoo basketball league. 20 teams with an auction draft. I'm giving it time to fill up so the draft is this Saturday 10:00PM EST or 7:00PM PST. $15 buy-in and the payout is as follows...
1st Place - $200 (66.7%) 2nd Place - $60 (20%) 3rd Place - $20 (6.67%) Best Record Bonus - $20 (6.67%)
Message me for an invite.
Let's get this rolling.
Καλησπερα μαγκες, σημερα Σαββατο 15/1/22 αρχιζει η 18η αγωνιστικη της Superleague.
Στις 5 και τεταρτο παιζουν ο Αστερας Τριπολης με τον Βολο. Στο τελευταιο του ματς ο Αστερας νικησε τον ΟΦΗ (1-0), ενδιαμεσα αναβληθηκε το ματς με τον Ολυμπιακος λογω κρουσματων. Ο Βολος στην τελευταια αγωνιστικη νικησε με 3-1 τον Παναθηναικο, σε ενα πολυ ωραιο ματς.
Στις 5 και τεταρτο παιζει και η Λαμια με τον Ιωνικο. Ο Ιωνικος ειναι 11ος με 14 βαθμους και η Λαμια 12η με 11 βαθμους. Και οι δυο ομαδες παιζουν για να μεινουν στην κατηγορια. Περιμενουμε πολυ ξυλο, θα ελεγα πως μπορει να βγει και κοκκινη. Κατα τα αλλα δεν υπαρχει λογος καποιος να δει το ματς.
Στις 7 και μιση παιζει ο ΠΑΟΚ με τον ΟΦΗ στην Τουμπα. Ωραιο ματς. Και οι δυο ομαδες παιξανε μεσοβδομαδα, ο ΠΑΟΚ με τον Παναιτωλικο (νικη με 2-0) και ο ΟΦΗ με τον Απολλων (νικη με 0-3). Ο ΟΦΗ εχει μπει με φορα στο 2022, θα μπορουσε να παρει αποτελεσμα απο τον ΠΑΟΚ.
Το τελευταιο ματς για σημερα (και αυτο στις 7 και μιση αν ειναι δυνατον) ειναι το Απολλων-Αρης. Η λογικη λεει νικη Αρη, απο την στιγμη που εχουν και πολλες επιστροφες παιχτων.
Αυριο στις 5 και τεταρτο παιζει η ΑΕΚΑΡΑ με τον Παναιτωλικο, δεν επιτρεπεται γκελα.
Στις 7 και τεταρτο εχει ντερμπι ΠΑΟ-Ολυμπιακος στην Λεωφορο. Πιστευω ακραδαντα πως ο Παναθηναικος μπορει να παρει αποτελεσμα, το ματς θα εχει ενδιαφερον.
Το αλλο ματς στις 7 και τεταρτο για αυριο ειναι το ΠΑΣ-Ατρομητος. Κακα τα ψεματα, δεν θα το δει κανεις. Θα πω νικη ΠΑΣ.
Απαντηστε στο post με τις σκεψεις και τις προβλεψεις σας για τα ματς της 18ης αγωνιστικης!
There's no spots in the rec league left apparently, so I was wondering how competitive the mens super league is and it is 3 days is it mandatory to be at all 3 games a week? Basically what level of basketball do you have to have played to not look silly?

I did this "Superleague" concept career mode the last two FIFAs. Basically I would place the top 92 clubs in the world by FIFA's Star Ratings in the English Leagues System, so I would place the Top 20 in the Premier League, the next 24 teams in the next division and so on, filling all the slots till the last division available in FIFA. I recorded as many stats as possible in an spreadsheet for 6 seasons, such as the teams that dropped, teams that got the promotion, winners of all the cups, winners of the league, their positions through seasons, highest scores, etc. I'm going to start this new Superleague in FIFA 22 and I want to share with you all this stats, what else do you wanna see? How can I share all of this with you? Hope you like it!
###Leagues
######Spanish League
Spanish League confirmed to be hosted/ran by LVP
January to February for the first iteration
10 teams, 7 confirmed already, 8 are directly invited. They haven't said who has these invites but have said that Ibai/Piqué's team is building their team specifically for the local league and they are easy to deduce, so 19esports, Riders, SAW are almost definite locks, with Giants being a possibility too, though I assume they would prioritize VCT and the EU League.
"Spanish League" appears to actually be "Southern European League", with Portugal, Italy, San Marino, Malta, Andorra, and Vatican counting as part of this region. This implies that Northern Europe, DACH, France+Benelux (presumably run by Mandatory and being the spiritual successor of VALOTF) will also be regions.
2 people from the country/region, but if you have imports they have to live in the region to count as that region. From what I understand that means they can technically have a full import roster as long as they count as residents.
######European Superleague 12 teams and a qualifier will come next year Begins in January as well and Masters/Champions teams would have direct invite
You can't play in both Leagues, but the EU qualifier will be before the regional one. This is allegedly the reason for discontent with mutliple orgs. Riot, meanwhile, is allegedly unhappy because some have left or invested less which would diminish the regional leagues.
Unclear how this fits into VCT, but it seems like there will be some sort of connection.
It is apparently a "transitionary format" between the current 2021 circuit and 2023.
###Roster changes
In the most surprising revelation of the year, mertz has been confirmed to be playing with Heretics due to certain Champions teams refusing to scrim with smurf accounts. I don't think whoever took that screenshot caught the rest of the team, but so far russ, ec1s, mertz, loWel, and al0rante are the names going around, however outside of the latter 3, they seem to still be looking for the other two players and remaining staff. pAura has also been seen scrimming with them.
The TBA Ibai-Piqué team has offered a contract to and are finalizing talks with Movistar Riders IGL Quick. Among their tryouts are purp0, Moe40, and chiwawa. It was previously thought that Reject$, now Rebels, was going to be this team, but I am not sure what's going on there anymore.
There's been murmurs of some teams leaving as well, but take t

It all came down to a few key defensive plays that swung the momentum in favor of Kazan, some delivered than none other than star opposite Maxim Mikhaylov, making some insane digs. Lots of incredible back and forths in the rally, and it's hard to say that DM did anything wrong, ZK just played better. More efficient offense, more incredible defense, just tiny little things happening to ZK that weren't happening for DM. I'll have to watch the entire thing with full focus to see more of what really went on behind the scenes, but ZK just seemed really hungry to win it all, a level of hustle not usually seen in Russian players.
Non Albanians, what are the things you think Albanians should be proud of?
Any Albanians I should be aware of who are competing during March Madness? This will determine my winning bracket and who I root for.

Καλησπερα φιλοι του σαμπ, μετα απο μια αγωνιστικη που δεν υπηρξε post (ειχα Covid), επιστρεφει το rival watch. Η αληθεια ειναι πως δεν ημουν σιγουρος αν θα επρεπε να το ανεβασω, γιατι τα μισα ματς εχουν αναβληθει, αλλα whatever.
Σημερα Σαββατο 8/1 ο ΟΦΗ υποδεχεται τον ΠΑΣ στην Κρητη. Ενδιαφερον ματς, αν νικησει ο ΠΑΣ θετει σοβαρη υποψηφιοτητα να μπει πλει-οφ. Απο την αλλη ο ΟΦΗ θελει την νικη για να ερθει στην ισοβαθμια με τον ΠΑΣ και να προσπαθησει να τον περασει νικωντας στο αναβληθεν ματς του ΟΦΗ με τον Απολλων. Ο ΠΑΣ βρισκεται στην 5η θεση με 25 βαθμους (16 ματς), ενω ο ΟΦΗ στην 6η με 22 βαθμους (15 ματς). Προσωπικα θα κατσω να το δω.
Αυριο Κυριακη 9/1 στις 5 και τεταρτο ο Βολος παιζει με τον Παναθηναικο (μαντεψτε που. ετοιμοι;) στον Βολο. Ο Παναθηναικος ηταν σε καλο φεγγαρι πριν την διακοπη, και παρα την απωλεια του μομεντουμ που ειχε δημιουργησει (ο Ολυμπιακος πχ επηρεαστηκε) καταφερε να νικησει τον (ελλιπη μεν) Αρη στην Λεωφορο (2-0) σε ενα ματς που θα μπορουσε το σκορ να ειχε παρει μεγαλες διαστασεις. Ο Βολος δεν επαιξε την προηγουμενη αγωνιστικη, θα ηθελε να ξεκινησει την χρονια με θετικο αποτελεσμα γιατι παρα την πολυ καλη αρχη στο πρωταθλημα το μελλον προμηνυεται δυσκολο.
Αργοτερα στις 7 και μιση ο Ολυμπιακος υποδεχεται τον Αστερα Τριπολης. Ο Ολυμπιακος θελει την πρωτη του νικη στο 2022 για να διαλυσει οποιαδηποτε ονειρα μειωσης της διαφορας απο την δευτερη ΑΕΚ (πως τα λεω ετσι, μακαρι να χασει). Κακη εμφανιση με τον μισο Απολλωνα Σμυρνης (0-0), αλλοτε βεβαια ο Ολυμπιακος εχει παρει ματς παιζοντας και χειροτερα. Βεβαια τους λειπουν πολλοι παικτες λογω Κοπα Αφρικα, ενω τραυματιστηκε και ο Μπουχαλακης με αποτελεσμα να εχουν μονο τον Εμβιλα και τον Καμαρα στα χαφ. Ο Αστερας ξεκινησε ιδανικα την χρονια με νικη επι του ΟΦΗ στην Τριπολη (1-0) και παρολο που εχει μεινει πισω στην βαθμολογια (8ος, 20 ποντοι) ενα θετικο αποτελεσμα με τον Ολυμπιακο ειναι ο,τι πρεπει για να δηλωσει παρον στην μαχη για τα πλει-οφ. Το ματς ερχεται σε πολυ καλη περιοδο για τον Αστερα.
Αυτη ειναι η περιληψη(;) των ματς για αυτο το ΣΚ, δωστε τις προβλεψεις και τις σκεψεις σας στα σχολια. :)
