Crvena Zvezda vs Partizan (73-64) and Buducnost vs Cedevita (82-81) in ABA Liga

The teams who have the home advantage in the semifinals of Adriatic League defended their home and made the first step heading to the finals.

Real Madrid vs Barcelona 91-78 (Spain)

Real still hunts Unicaja on the top and Barcelona is almost for sure third, but a “clasico” is always a “clasico” and Jaycee Caroll decided it.

Oldenburg vs Brose Baskets 72-70 (Germany)

Oldenburg celebrated its first and only trophy after the double in 2009! In the final of the German Cup beat Brose Baskets

Strasburg vs Nancy 78-65 (France)

The leading team in France is still Strasbourg after the big win vs Nancy behind a great defensive and balanced offensive game.

Galatasaray vs Tofas 92-73 (Turkey)

It’s not so big the meaning of this victory but the message that Galatasaray sent to its rivals that is still strong and ready to secure a place in the playoffs. After three defeats in row it was more than necessary.

5 Bad Losses

Kolejliler by Gaziantep 60-82 (Turkey)

Kolejliler suffered a bad loss from Gaziantep and its coach Burak Goren left, while Hasan Ozmeric agreed to take the responsibility and keep the team in the first division.

Khimki by Enisey 83-101 (VTB League)

The celebrations for the qualification to the Eurocup finals forced Khimki to suffer a heavy defeat by Enisey, one of the weakest teams in the VTB League.

Artland by Mitteldeutscher 76-83 (Germany)

The goal of Artland was to reach the top four places, but eventually after its third defeat in row struggles to stay in the top eight.

Alba by Brose Baskets 65-86 (Germany)

In the semifinal of the German Cup Alba was destroyed by Brose Baskets only few days after its defeat in the “final” for the qualification to the quarterfinals of the Euroleague by Maccabi.

Nizhny by Zenit 74-82 (VTB League)

Zenit prevailed over Nizhny and secured a place in the top four teams of the league.

5 Falls

bobby jones

Roma lost by Varese and missed Jones

The defeat by Varese (78-73) was the less important issue that Roma had to handle, while the leading scorer of the team, Bobby Jones is expected to miss the rest of the season due to an injury.

Hezonja’s quote once again

Mario Hezonja said after Barcelona’s loss by Real Madrid that the continuously bad performance of his team against its rivals is “shame”. And it wasn’t accepted in Barcelona as something good…

More and more injuries for Unicaja

Unicaja beat Estudiantes but missed German Gabriel for the next six weeks, while Stefan Markovic got also injured. At least, Vasileiadis will come back soon.

Bilbao is strong only at home

Obradoiro was the last team that beat Bilbao (77-72) on road. The Basques are fourth in the standings with 18 victories in total and only 5 of them away from Bilbao.

Karsiyaka lost a “won game” by Darussafaka

Karsiyaka was leading by 15 points in 26′ but eventually Darussafaka won the game thanks to the excellent game by Farmar. Bobby Dixon failed at the end to be Karsiyaka’s hero.

Show me the money

Sergey Ivanov, the president of VTB League announced among others the budgets of the teams in its league. And it’s likely to say that maybe in total VTB could be the richest league in Europe.

Who is the playmaker and who the center?

The point guard, Curtis Jerrells, grabbed 9 rebounds, while the center, D’or Fischer, dished 7 assists in the last game of Unics. Who is who?
