With Ettore Messina at the helm (first year), Olimpia Milano is currently first in the Euroleague. Last year it finished 16 out of 16.

another coaching prospect wasted


Milano recently beat powerhouses Barcelona, Panathinaikos and Fenerbahce and now stands in first place together with Barcelona.

Was actually thinking about Messina and his loss. I wasn’t a huge fan of his or anything but frankly the team is missing in the coaching department. Thanks for sharing. The Spurs have had several coaching prospects going back a few year leave and it’s snowing.

meant to say they have lost HC prospects and it shows.
:spin

the guy can’t speak English well enough to connect with American players. there’s a reason he was passed up for like every NBA HC position he tried for.

He also sucked dick at rotations when he was here. terribly overrated tbh

Does it seem like fewer coaches want to work with Pop currently?
We struggled to bring in coaches this summer to replace Messina and Udoka.
Hardy and Duncan were already in the system. Does this mean that no one wanted to come here from another team?

[ducks]

Means they know pop is against USA and sa front office is afraid of him

Pop's defensive schemes are getting exposed without Messina and Udoka

Milano has on of the top budgets in Euroleague, there is no cap there, owners spend whatever they want. Armani's roster is too good to not be up there. I'm still not sold on Messina. Messina or Udoka's abcense is not the reason we're struggling.
