The NBA isn’t a cup tournament. The Champions League maybe. It’s still a season of games then playoffs. They didn’t luckily make the playoffs. For a few seasons now they’ve been dominating that and then falling short in the playoffs. This season they finally finish it off.

Do you think? I see it, and US sports in general like the superbowl, world series etc, as more of a champions league win. Like, they have various leagues from which teams qualify for a KO tournament. Also means the best team doesn't always win the big prize though!

I agree, it's more like us winning the Champions League as it's the preeminent 'club' competition in basketball.

Well it's not a direct analogy because the sports are organised into a season ending knockout comp, but it's the closest comparable thing though as I see it.

If they win it, what would be the football equivalent?

The Premier League title.

Yeah, more like a Champions League win for me too. Or even better, an FA Cup *wink*

One day, Percy. One day.

It's the end point of the domestic league season though, and they don't have an equivalent Champions League where they play winners of other leagues.

True.

Pick your own criteria I suppose. I was just thinking it’s the most important and prestigious title in the sport. Like ‘Champions League winners’ is.

A few seconds from the end of the clip you can see Wes in a Villa t-shirt. I presume that is his daughter next to him:

Might be his wife Lynn (but don't think so), definitely not his daughter Mallory.

I'll take your word for it BV. Your knowledge and degree of certainty suggests it is something you have studied!  ;)

He's a good bloke by all accounts I've seen.
