Arvydas Sabonis was one of the greatest European players of all time. In his prime, he was THE best player in Europe. However, one of the biggest "what ifs" in NBA history is....what if he came to the NBA sooner? instead of spending his early years getting overworked in the USSR. Hope you enjoy the video!

He has been both a player and a president of the Russian club, and the 71-year-old is now in his fourth stint as manager which included last season’s remarkable title triumph Never go back, they say, but Yuri Semin has never been somebody to place too much store by conventional wisdom. He is 71 now, his eyes more watery than ever, and this is his fourth stint in charge of Lokomotiv Moscow. In total, he’s managed them for more than two decades. To a large extent, Semin is the club and that they are playing Schalke in the Champions League on Wednesday is to a large degree down to him. Semin first became manager of Lokomotiv in 1986. He had a year away in 1991, managing New Zealand’s Olympic team – a typically unconventional move for a coach who manages to combine supreme practicality and the dress sense of a maverick 70s TV cop with the sense that he spends half his life gazing into another realm – before returning for 15 more years at Lokomotiv. First he saved them from bankruptcy, buying shares that he still owns, and then he made them a regular top six club. In 1996, he led Lokomotiv to the Russian Cup, their first trophy since winning the Soviet Cup 39 years earlier. They won it again the following year, and again in 2000 and 2001. And then, in 2002, Semin ended Spartak’s long hegemony and won the league for the first time in the club’s history. Two years later, they won it again. Semin finally left for the Russia national job in 2005 but two years later he was back at Lokomotiv, this time as president, only to be sacked after a poor season. He went to Ukraine and won the league with Dynamo Kyiv, but returned against to Lokomotiv in 2009. Again, though, disappointing form led to him being dismissed. All reason said he shouldn’t return again in 2016, but he did. Lok signed just one player for a fee that summer and made a net profit of £12m on transfers. They are not a rich club. The following season their net spend was £2.5m. In 2017-18 it was £3m. And yet, for the third time in their history, each of them under Semin, they won the league. It was a barely conceivable success. Theirs was not, in any sense, a team of stars. They had Eder, the former Swansea City striker who scored the winner in the Euro 2016 final; the veteran Peruvian winger Jefferson Farfán; and Ari, the Brazilian forward who won a Dutch title under Louis van Gaal at AZ; but their key player was the captain, Igor Denisov, his performances an indication of what Semin does best. Denisov is 34 now, his career a catalogue of fresh starts gone sour. A decade ago, when he excelled at Euro 2008, he seemed one of the brightest holding midfielders in Europe. But his personality keeps getting in the way. Denisov is difficult. He broke the nose of a driving instructor after a learner under tuition almost crashed into his SUV. He left Zenit after a string of controversies. He scrapped with a coach when a refereeing decision in a training game went against him, then kicked the ball a
TRIBUN-VIDEO.COM -- Pemain timnas Spanyol, David Silva, meyakini bahwa tak ada lawan yang mudah di Piala Dunia 2018, termasuk timnas Rusia. Timnas Spanyol akan bersua dengan tuan rumah Rusia dalam laga perdelapan final Piala Dunia 2018, Minggu (1/7/2018) pukul 21.00 WIB di Luzhniki Stadium, Moskow. Spanyol, yang merupakan juara edisi 2010, di atas kertas lebih difavoritkan untuk melewati adangan Tim Beruang Merah. Apalagi, status peringkat sepuluh FIFA tim berjuluk La Furia Roja ini, semakin sah menegaskan keunggulan atas tim pecahan Uni Soviet yang hanya duduk di posisi 70. Akan tetapi, hal itu bukan sebuah alasan bagi sang pilar, David Silva, untuk memandang sebelah mata pada Rusia. "Dalam Piala Dunia, setiap tim adalah lawan yang sulit. Anda dapat melihat itu di Grup B yang kami huni, sangat sulit bagi kami untuk meraih kemenangan," terang Silva sebagaimana dikutip BolaSport.com dari laman London Evening Standard. Benar saja, di Grup D, Spanyol menang dengan 1-0 atas tim yang tak pernah lolos fase knock-out Piala Dunia, Iran pada Kamis (21/6/2018) Kemenangan itu pun hanya diraih via gol beruntung hasil rebound sang striker, Diego Costa. Selain itu, Tim Matador juga ditahan imbang 2-2 oleh Maroko, tim yang tak pernah lolos putaran final Piala Dunia sejak kali terakhir 1998, pada matchday terakhir, 26 Juni 2018. Silva pun yakin bahwa timnas Rusia, kelak akan memberikan perlawanan yang sengit bagi timnya. "Bermain melawan Rusia nanti akan menjadi laga yang sama sulitnya seperti menghadapi Brasil," ucapnya.
