It\u2019s also hard to quantify what could have been and wasn\u2019t: I started with the Azzurri at 17-18 years old, when the 2004 Olympic group was still there, and of all the possible summers since then, I missed eight. That\u2019s a lot. Sometimes I wonder what could have happened if I had played those eight summers too \u2014 better not to think about it. Every summer anything can happen, even this one&#8230; I don\u2019t want to put pressure on the guys, but honestly I see a team that I think is strong and can do well. I expect a lot from this group. I\u2019m fired up for this, especially since it will be my last time with the national team, which adds some extra emotion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1009\" data-end=\"1062\">Gallinari also commented on the NBA Europe project:<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1064\" data-end=\"1605\">\u201cI think it\u2019s a wonderful idea, though I don\u2019t know how or when it will happen. I had the opportunity to take part in some of the meetings to understand the value of this idea, having conversations with people familiar with both worlds. From what I understand, things are moving forward step by step. I believe it can be something positive for a league as global as the NBA. EuroLeague is a beautiful competition \u2014 I follow it, I really enjoy watching it \u2014 but if there\u2019s something the NBA can contribute, hopefully they can make it work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gallinari will join the group led by ct Gianmarco Pozzecco on Monday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":401682,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[98,131],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-455422","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-eurobasket","category-italbasket"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/08\/2024mcer06lug290.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455422","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/148"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=455422"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455422\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/401682"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=455422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=455422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=455422"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=455422"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=455422"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=455422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
