This week, Umana Reyer Venice surprise suddenly slumping Buducnost VOLI Podgorica; Cedevita Olimpija Ljubljana need a great outing to down short-handed ratiopharm ulm; and Partizan NIS Belgrade are the second team to book a spot in the playoffs.
Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Round 26
The TTC Gone Traveling show reviews Round 26 of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague with Moshe Barda of the EuroLeague Sweet 16 podcast. We look at the chaotic week that was Round 26 - ranging from Zalgiris Kaunas beating AS Monaco to Real Madrid losing twice in the week - and twice badly - to UNICS Kazan getting Zvezda'd at home in a loss to Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade to Zenit St Petersburg falling at ALBA Berlin. All in all, the race for the playoffs and all eight spots promises to be thrilling.
Japanese B.League
The TTC Gone Traveling talks to FIBA's Enzo Flojo about the Japanese B.League. NOTE - we will not be mentioning which rounds of games played to avoid confusion. This week, the Brave Thunders slip up and drop two games at home to the Crane Thunders; the Dragonflies also managed only a split at the Brave Warriors; and Brex get strong contributions from their domestic players.
