LThe Euroleague wants to add even more prominence to the Final Four, and is weighing the possibility that the Eurocup final be played prior to the grand final of the Euroleague.
A possibility that they are studying although there is still no decision on the matter, although if approved it would enter the scene this next season.
And it is that the maximum European competition finally recognizes that the match for third and fourth place does not like any of the participating teams, just the day after saying goodbye to the option to win the Euroleague.
Without third place at stake
Now, after many years of complaints, It seems that they attend to the issue and the idea would be to stop playing for that third place and introduce a match as powerful as the Eurocup final, where the winning team achieves a place in the Euroleague the following season.
Undoubtedly, Introducing the Eurocup final would also add much more interest to the Final Four with fans of up to six teams gathering in the host city, a good deal for the Euroleague itself as well as creating much more media attention.
A decision that they want to share with the Players Association, which will undoubtedly be welcomed with satisfaction after having shown his disgust for playing a game that only has the ‘honor’ of being considered third place.
We will see if the Euroleague ends up taking the final step to implement it and that will undoubtedly give a new impetus to the Final Four, who will decide their competitions in a weekend.
