Default Portuguese basketball 2008/09
I thought of putting a more general title so as to include news and results from the new league to be created, the NT and Portuguese players abroad.


Main news right now is that Ovarense, the current LCB champion, decided not to re-sign Spanish coach Manuel Molinero after he became champion and took the team with the season going on after Luís Magalhães left for Angola. The reason for this decision is of financial nature, Ovarense will have a reduced budget for next season mainly because their main sponsor, Aerosoles, will suspend the sponsorship.

Those are terrible news, now that they are gonna have more teams, the competition would be higher ( and that is a good basis to invest some money in some team), instead of putting more money on ot, they have to reduce the budget, damn it. I just hope they will find another sponsor at least with the same ammount of money.

Yeah that would certainly be good, but by the looks of it they won't get a sponsor as strong as Aerosoles.


Meanwhile Porto will also not re-sign coach Alberto Babo, predictably after he club lost the finals to Ovarense.

Ovarense reached an agreement with coach Mário Leite for he will become the team's main coach after assisting Manuel Molinero and handling the club after Luís Magalhães left. A safe bet no doubt (and a cheaper one of course).

Probably, but it's still not known as the team has a reduced budget next season and with the extinction of the current league there are many questions answered.

Carlos Andrade (and Bruesa) will play next season in ACB. Bruesa became LEB Oro champion by beating Tenerife 81-76 in the final. Andrade had 10 pts + 7 rebs.

That's good news. Andrade is one of the best Portuguese players. Unfortunately he has João Gomes ahead of him in the NT.

Default New competition format
With the extinction of the previous competition model, the new league will carry a new name, LPB (Liga Profissional de Basquetebol) and will comprise 12 teams that will also play against the Proliga division teams (12 as well). Apart from the cross rounds with Proliga teams (which purpose I don't fully understand), it seems right


Porto signed Júlio Matos as their new coach.
Guimarães signed F Fernando Neves from Ovarense.

Sérgio Ramos returns to Benfica after 9 years. One of the greatest Portuguese players ever, great signing for the reds.
