What is it about the basketball that is currently being played in the Turkish Airlines Euroleague that you would most like to transmit to fellow coaches around the world?

Competitiveness. Every possession is extremely important. Every possession is being played by the actors in the game as if it were the last in the season. There is no possibility to rest, no possibility to hold back, everyone must give 100% every day, every moment, every game.
