I've been looking over the ACB website, thats the Spanish basketball league, and its pretty interesting. The players come from all over Europe and the US with plenty of native Spanish players as well. Whats interesting is that while there are certainly many black US players, they don't dominate the league, and that plenty of US white players and lots of European players have key roles. It kind of reminds me of the most recent Utah Jazz lineup, (recently a Russian, a Croat a Turk and two blacks starting). What I like is seeing players like Casey Jacobsen, who was lost in Phoenix, get lots of minutes and not waste their careers. As the NBA teams play more exhibitions against foreign teams it would be interesting to see how a Spanish team would do against them.
