Basketball is a simple game that is similar to life, in the sense that the winner is always right. Let’s surrender one by one, the points about the champions that I criticized from the beginning.  First of all, the Ülker Group was right to choose Fenerbahçe as their flagship.

They were right, at the beginning of the season, to hire training coach Tanjeviç for the National Team.  
Not every many brave fellows could gather together a group of players with bare nerve endings, each one a different clinical case, experienced but nearing the age limit, youngsters that were still raw, and mold them into a team that could advance to the championship. Bringing the team to the thresholds that they crossed during the year could well have daunted a lesser coach and left them in the lobby. Bogdan's international experience and authority allowed the team to escape these misfortunes, unscathed.  If he had used the same rotations and played around with our guys’ allotted times in the game, they would have walked out and left without packing their bags.

During the season in which we witnessed the disappointment of the monumental Blatt, the most successful name was undoubtedly Tanjeviç.

We’ve identified our Champion, let’s congratulate him and move on to the problem of our National Team.  Tanjeviç stated, "The coach of the National Team shouldn’t be sitting in the bleachers all year, he must make the players work and wear a uniform like theirs,” and "Let’s give the job of coaching the national team to the most successful coach in the League; when he gets to know the players let him take them to the championship,” he argued.  At any rate, people say he is a good gambler. Strengthening Federation President Turgay Demirel 's hand, he ended the argument about the National Team coach. Be careful, I didn’t say it was over.

"If one of the two NBA players breaks the dominance of the other players, they will get in”,  "I am preparing the 2010 team, with the expectation that the point guard will go on a killing spree,”  If they don’t call up the wild and courageous Ömer Onan, we will once again be up against each other.

Let Fenerbahçe ÜLKER's championship be a lesson, and hope that the National Team will do as well.
