  Wow will this be played in the USA if not im going to Barcelona to watch that? Barcelona is probably the best team in europe and the Lakers are obviously one of the best in the states so should be a great game

  wow! sounds cool

• LA Huey Posted: Jan.29 at 12:33 pm
  Greek dude, get on this.

• Ryne Nelson Posted: Jan.29 at 12:50 pm
  I bet Ricky impresses. We might get to see him guarding Kobe, which would be dope as far as preseason matchups go.

  ricky rubio on kobe….that sounds fair.

• T-Money Posted: Jan.29 at 1:20 pm
  i have no doubt that he will impress being guarded by derek fisher.

• Ryne Nelson Posted: Jan.29 at 1:56 pm
  Could get some nice crossover highlights on O without much trouble. Can’t wait…

  Sorry to be picky, but Pau Gasol was chosen in the draft by the Atlanta Hawks, then traded to the Grizzlies.

  Ricky Christina Barcelona drops 50, applies for “warm weather” clause.

  If Fisher still is starting pg, rubio will have a field day. If phil was smart, he’d stick shannon on him all 48min, then the lakers would murder rubio, not to mention barcelona

  it will probably be played with nba rules where european teams have lot of trouble at the halfway point of the third quarter they’re out of gass most of the time. but as far as preseason matchups go it’s great. If it’s in spain with rubio, gasol and kobe bryant on the same court it’s gonna be berserk.

  Let’s be honest here… Regal Barcelona are not Europe’s top team, but they are going great this season. It’s really all about Rubio and his future to the NBA, and a great welcoming back party for Gasol. Throw in the Lakers who have been the team of the noughties and you have yourself a great game full of hype. If it’s in Europe that they will be playing, then I suggest the Lakers to go play CSKA Moscow, Panathinaikos, and Maccabi Elite. Teams that have been in the final four and winning titles for this past decade. Barca made it and won it in 2003. That’s about it for them. P.S If the Lakers go to play Panathinaikos, maybe the bosses of Panathinaikos and Olympiakos can show him what all those $80 million talks were about.

  Aristotle, you’re a little out of date in European basketball or maybe you’re biased. Regal Barcelona is the top team in Europe right now, no doubt about it. Panathinakos? They lose at home this week against Partizan and they also lose 2 times against Real Madrid (third in the Spanish league). Maccabi is not even one of the best eight teams in Europe this year. And CSKA, though a hard team, is not so dominant. How many games has Barcelona lost this year? No one in Euroleague (and winning with a 20 points margin) and 2 in the Spanish League. The last one with a buzzer beater.

  the link states the game will be played in Barcelona, undoubtedly. October 7th. Hope I can get tickets.

  Stern keeps chasing that international market and he’s going to play a large role in guys taking it over the pond. Its only a matter of time until a big name player takes that over seas moola

• JoeMaMa Posted: Jan.30 at 4:10 pm
  nastier, you got me thinking: when the new CBA come rolling through, there’s talk of second tier superstars (several first options on a squad, most second options, a few thirds…) getting what, an $8-9 million a year contract? Everyone, it seems, stands to lose alot of money after, it also seems, a long lockout. There’s bound to be some big names hightailing it overseas to get that Josh Childress money.

  How do I get tickets for this..?

• UnRel Posted: Feb.1 at 1:56 pm

• Kamil Posted: Oct.7 at 6:53 am
