«A closed basketball league based on the NBA model in Europe? I would like it,” said Andrea Bargnani about the possibility, suggested by some international media, of the NBA coming to Europe with its own tournament, independent of Fiba and in competition with the Euroleague. Bargnani’s words: «Any model that comes from the NBA should be welcomed with open arms because it is a model that works very well, from a show, business and sports perspective. In Europe, on the other hand, we have a model that doesn’t work so well, especially from a sustainability perspective.” «I honestly didn’t expect EA7 Milano and Segafredo Bologna to start the Euroleague with so many difficulties – adds the former Italian center, who was drafted first overall in 2006 and was a guest at the NBA Store in Milan for a meet & greet the fans – even if it has now become a really high-level competition. But I am convinced that they will be promoted again soon because there are still many games ahead of them.
