In Part 1, we imagined what fans of last seasonās top ten teams might be texting in their WhatsApp groups this summer. Now itās time for the rest of the EuroLeague.
Transfer rumors are spreading by the minute, every roster move is either a masterstroke or a disaster, and everyone already knows exactly what their team needs. In other words, itās a perfectly normal EuroLeague offseason.
Dubai
Local fan: So, what did you say travelling was again? The sport is OK, though.
Serbian expat working in Dubai: Weāre getting season tickets again this year. You people need to understand that basketball is the greatest sport in the world!
Maccabi Tel Aviv
Man, if Kattash doesnāt deliver anything this season eitherā¦
At least we kept Hoard. Thatās our biggest signing right there.
Walker can definitely fill it up, but he needs to play smarter, brother. Heās been in Europe for a while now.
Bayern Munich
We need to convince PeÅ”iÄ to stay for one more season.
Weāve got to find another ākillerā like Edwards.
Olimpia Milano
So Brooks blossomed here and now weāre just letting him leave? I donāt get itā¦
Honestly, keeping LeDay matters more to me.
Iām just praying Nebo stays healthy. Iāll lose my mind if he gets injured again.
Partizan
We need a center. Immediately! And I think Poku could absolutely break out this season.
Credit to PeƱarroya, but letās see what happens now that the pressure is on from Day 1.
I donāt follow that much since Željko leftā¦
Paris Basketball
Our coach is way too old. We need someone younger, haha.
Does anybody in Paris care about this as much as we do?
Iām rooting for ASVEL this year, they have a bigger budget.
Virtus Bologna
Man, I remember the days of Rigaudeau, DaniloviÄ and GinĆ³biliā¦ not this.
Come on, at least weāre not in the second division anymore.
Just bring in a good coach and weāll fight for a playoff spot. Mumbru is great as a national team coach, butā¦
Baskonia
Anything is fine, just donāt let our players leave for China in the middle of the season again. Itās ridiculous.
Donāt give up DiakitĆ© and Luwawu. Everyone always comes after our players first.
When are we bringing DuŔko back again?
Anadolu Efes
For starters, Iāll consider it a success if we donāt fire the coach after five rounds.
Come on, everyone got injured on KokoÅ”kov last season. Who knows what couldāve happened otherwiseā¦
Is Larkin too old to carry the team now? I love him like a brother, but Iām starting to wonder.
ASVEL
As long as Parker is the coach, thereāll be money to build an actual team instead of getting blown out every week.
Either that, or letās just pack it in. This makes no sense anymore.
That concludes our completely unscientific tour through the imaginary WhatsApp chats of EuroLeague fans.
Think we got your fanbase wrong? Send us the messages weād find in your teamās group chat this summer. Chances are theyāre even better than ours.
