I can only watch Fenerbahçe' matches so i can only comment about my team. I think we are little out of our shape right now two loses in last 4 weeks in Turkish League and we played so badly in every part of the game in these matches. Our defence have never been perfect but in the offense we have been amazing so far. And Montpellier games wer very hard for us, i must say we won these games with our experience not with our play. But probably this is normal in this time of season i hope we will be in better shape at Final 8.

And about final 8 i don't want UMMC in our group of course So i'm praying for Rivas win. And if it happens we will probably play for first spot in the group against Galatasaray MP. I want to play the final game so much but i don't think any team has a chance to win against Ros Casares at the moment. They're better than everyone else. They have an amazing roster their Europeans are as quite as their non-Europeans that makes the difference i think and they will probably make it.
