Former manager of the Minnesota Timberwolves and now head of the Parisian club, David Kahn said he was surprised by the division, including linguistic, among the leaders of the Euroleague. But sees development potential for basketball on the old continent: “After our victory against Partizan Belgrade (74-71 on November 7), two people used to NBA matches came to see me to tell me that it was the best match they had attended. This is what we can sell, a product that has nothing to do with the NBA. » A product which, according to the American leader, arouses the interest of the American league whose concrete involvement in Europe cannot be long in coming. A perspective well received by Antoine Rigaudeau and George Eddy, provided that it does not distort European culture. “You have to know how to match values: money, training. This is where leaders need to find the right balance.”concluded the journalist.
