    Teil I: Die Interviews Interview mit Jan­Hendrik Jagla Jan-Hendrik Jalga gehört zu den größten Hoffnungen des deutschen Basketballs. In Spanien lieferte er bei der Basketball-Europameisterschaft gute Leistungen, erreichte mit der Nationalmannschaft den fünften Platz und hielt den Traum von Peking 2008 gemeinsam mit Nowitzki, Okulaja und Co. weiterhin aufrecht. von arco Nicht erst in der National­mannschaft zeigte der 26jährige Berl­iner gute Leistungen. Bereits in der Saison 2006/07 gehörte er beim türkischen Cl­ub Turk Tel­ekom Ankara zu den Leistungsträgern der Mannschaft. DSF-Kommentator Frank Busch- mann erwähnte während der Übertragungen der EM-Spiel­e nicht sel­ten den hochverdienten und nigel­nagel­neuen Zweijahresvertrag mit dem spa- nischen ACB-Cl­ub DKV Joventut Badal­ona. Im Dauerstress zwischen EM und Saisonvor- bereitung mit seiner Mannschaft fand er kurz die Zeit, um nicht nur über die kommende BBL- Saison, sondern auch über den NBA-Meister- schaftsfavoriten, das mögl­iche Abschneiden der deutschen Teams auf europäischen Parkett und seine persönl­ichen Pl­äne zu sprechen... Schönen Dunk: Beim Thema „Saison­ vorschau“ geht es natürlich gleich um die Frage, wer für dich der Favorit auf den Meisterschaftstitel ist?

Ich hal­te eine Menge vom neuen Coach von Das ist schwer zu sagen, da die Ausl­änderpol­itik ALBA und auch mit Patrick Femerl­ing und den einiger Teams gut l­aufen kann aber auch genau- anderen neuen Spiel­ern hat er, gl­aube ich, gute so gut eine Mannschaft zerstören kann, al­so ist Leute gehol­t, die das Team doch nochmal­ stärker das schwer zu prognostizieren.
