Ettore Messina gave a long interview to Paolo Brusorio in La Stampa. Here are some passages.
ON HIS BEING A TOUGH GUY
“A lie. Messina doesn’t laugh? But what is there to laugh about anyway? And I’m not just saying that about basketball. Anyway, yes, even at 65 you can improve.”
ON THE CENTRALIZING MESSINA
“Those who say that are disrespecting those who work with me. I put the final say in certain strategic choices. And that’s it. Until when? The contract expires in 2026, that’s all I think about.”
ON EUROLEAGUE
“The Euroleague is a show on the court, but it is no longer sustainable. In this diatribe with Fiba, a third player like the NBA can insert itself, which has everything to put European basketball back on its feet and reconcile it with world basketball.”
