Juan
Navarro wins MVP in Barcelona's win

Associated Press

PARIS -- Former NBA player Juan Carlos Navarro scored 21 points to lead FC Barcelona to its second Euroleague title and first in seven years with an 86-68 victory Sunday over Olympiakos.

Navarro, who played for the Memphis Grizzlies in 2007-08, was 6 for 13 from the floor, including 4 of 9 from 3-point range, and earned MVP honors for the Final Four.

Barcelona carried a 47-36 lead into halftime before Olympiakos came alive early in the second half, pulling to 52-47 with about 4 minutes left in the third quarter. Barcelona then had a 10-2 run to regain control.

Pete Mickeal scored 14 points and Ricky Rubio added nine for Barcelona.

Former Atlanta Hawks guard Josh Childress led Olympiakos with 15 points.

CSKA Moscow beat Partizan Belgrade 90-88 in overtime in the third-place game.

A comfortable win over Olympiakos, the team which pays the highest wage outside of the NBA.

Well done to them cheers.gif

I can't believe Childress plays for Olympiakos, he was a good NBA player at one time.

Perhaps Olympiakos are why Greece is in financial trouble, it's symptomatic icon_mrgreen.gif
