Domestic Superleagues

[jwfish6]

3 prospects had AMAZING games today in the Serbian Superleague. In an amazing 106-105 double overtime Milos Teodosic with 23 points, Dragan Labovic with 20, and Tadija Dragicevic with 22.

Yes,Teodosic becoming FMP go to guy. It was great move of FMP to sell Rasic. Also Labovic playing better and better. Its going to be interesting to see FMP next year. Cvetkovic and Erceg might be gonnne before next season is starting. Raduljica also join to FMP in Serbian Superleague. They might bring Jeremic and Macvan next year. But i Think Macvan will play for borac next year. I think their front court will be better next year. I would like to see labovic and Radulljica next year. They both playing good back to the basket and they have good mid range game and also they are great passer. FMP is the great basketball school. Too bad they sell their best player every year. If they kept their player from last year and joind them with their player of this year they would won the Uleb Cup. And they would be force to reckon with in Euroleague. I guess its not in their intrest to play in Eurolaue. I think they should move to Cacak. The would have great fan base their. That was always great basketball center. Also they had couple offers to move i couple of Serbian cities, including Banja Luka in Republika Srpska. I hope we will see : Teodosic,Rasic,Cvetkovic and Erceg in National Team. Also Pekovic had one more strong game. He b loosomed in absence of Perovic.

Milos was very good. Especially the 3 pointer after the dribble from 8 meters into the face of Gurovic was very nice. One of the biggest talents on the PG positon in Europe. And yes Pekovic had a nice game with 24p and 11reb. Also Velickovic was good again. I also liked the game of Milvoje Bozovic from Mega Ishrane. PF with a face to the basket game and good rebounder. Good size with 6-11. Born 85 but in december so we can compare him to players which are born at the begining of 86. I think that Cvetkovic will leave FMP, but i hope Erceg will stay. It is his first real season with FMP and another one would help him a lot. Macvan, Smiljanic and Covic will probably be loaned to Cacak and as you said Radjulica and Jeremic will join FMP. But i am a little bit disapointet with the season from Radjulica in Cacak this year. Perhaps Macvan would have the potential to join FMP immediately for the next season, but they don´t want this. It is because they will play two games per week and so he will not have much time for training. So he will play as pro in Cacak and train a lot on his mistakes during the week and not travel around whole europe.

raduljica was very disappointing this year in borac. his stats nowhere compared to the numbers that labovic put up a year before. i hope that next year erceg stays with fmp along with labovic and teodosic, joined by raduljica. in my opinion macvan could go to borac and score 25 a game against average competition like labovic did, or he could stay in fmp and play 10-15 mpg behind labovic and make a name for himself since he is already physically ready, and he would get so much better going up against erceg, labovic, samardziski and raduljica all year in practices and learning from them rather than dominating in borac

It´s not about dominaiting in Borac. The main thing why he probably will go there is that he will play only one game per week and throught the week have also much individual training. Teodosic will stay that is almost sure. Perhaps they will let Radjulica one more season in Borac, if they doesn´t sell any frontcourtplayer and Mladen Pantic returns afer recovering from his health problems. The only player which will leave for sure might be Branko Cvetkovic. FMP has money and they want to open more basketballschools in ex-yugoslavia. Most likely in the Republic of Srpska.

I am not worried about Radulljica. I think we will se the progress next season. I dont think he was used right way by Stepandic. Raduljica is the FMP's kid. And couch Vukoicic knows him better than Stepandic. I think Macvan will stick with Borac all sesaon. While Dejan Musli should be playing in FMP second team.

You are right that Radjulica is the kid from FMP, but FMP and Borac work very good together and they are always in contact about the players. But Radjulica is still young so there is much hoop for it that he will become a good player.

I also think that Macvan will be all season with Borac next year.

Musli played some games this year with FMP2, but as i know he is injured at the moment. He was not on the squad for the U16 at a tournament which was played last week in France. Serbia ended up as 2nd. They lost to Greece in the first game and won against the Cezch Republic and France. But they played without Musli, Niksa Nikolic (PG was on the U16 squad last year in Spain) and Bojan Jovanovic (is also a player from FMP) but i don´t know which position he is playing. But they said that he is one of the better players of the 91 generation.

i really just dont know about raduljica. his game seems inconsistent. actually i dont even know if you could call it inconsitent because he never has overwhelming numbers. for example, last season in fmp2 he was the oldest player, but macvan would play much more than him and score almost twice as many points as him (and macvan is nearly 2 years younger). it seems like he doesnt have the scoring ability of macvan and labovic.

while the 2 names are mentioned, can one of you serbian insiders give me a comparison between the 2. i have only seen macvan on tape from the L'Hospitalet.

So the Adriatic League final should be interesting over the next 2 weeks while the Superleague is haulted. Theres nearly 8-10 prospects between these 2 teams, although most are that highly regarded anymore. I guess they have now become Euroleague club prospects, rather than NBA prospects.

But anyways, so Antonio Burks apparently left Red Star for good.

What does that article say?

[KristianH]

It says that Burks is suspended and is not preparing with the team, while Milosevic and Kovac are again in training process after suffering with injuries. Also mentioned is Aleksandrov`s appeareance at Hoop summit, while newcomers Kebu Stewart and Marko Cvetkovic should have enough time to incorporate with the team.
