    Once again, you prove that you are not European.
    I don't know why they have those sites in English. It's just really funny to me. Russian league is in Russian. They have the option to go to an English version...which is hilarious since you can hardly make up what they're trying to say. The Dutch league is in Dutch. Belgian league? French and Flemish.

    And I'm getting annoyed by you telling me I'm not from Europe. Here.

    Bon appetit.

    Of course it's in English when you post a direct link to THE ENGLISH VERSION. Here's the index page: http://vtb-league.com/
    Russian.

    Here's an excerpt from the English version:

    If it comes to fruition, and hopefully it will, it would be great for the game.


    The VTB league was successful this year and this would certainly be stronger.

    Hemofarm and Partizan probably wouldn't be in it since they already compete in the NLB (Adriatic league).

    The league will be designed to surpass the Spanish League and to be a rival to the NBA.

    Clubs would include:

    Montepaschi Siena
    Lottomatica Roma
    Armani Milano
    Benetton Treviso
    Olympiacos Piraeus
    Panathinaikos Athens
    Aris Thessaloniki
    Maroussi
    Efes Pilsen
    Fenerbache Ulker
    Galatasaray
    Besiktas
    Partizan Belgrade
    Hemofarm
    Maccabi Tel Aviv
    Hapoel Jerusalem
    Bulgarian League Champions
    Cypriot League Champions


    I knew this shit had some kind of agenda. Answer me this question greek troll: why you constantly post on an NBA Forum when you hate the NBA? Do you suffer bipolar disorder?
