Podcasts about EuroBasket

Basketbalový život elitných slovenských reprezentantov prináša diametrálne odlišné príbehy a skúsenosti. Tie sa teraz stretli v najnovšej epizóde podcastu Pod košom, ktorým sprevádza Tomáš Kotlárik. Do štúdia ŠPORT.sk prijala pozvanie dvojica hráčov, ktorí momentálne pôsobia v úplne iných basketbalových vesmíroch.Na jednej strane sedí skúsený svetobežník Mário Ihring, ktorý po angažmánoch v Taliansku, Poľsku či Nemecku momentálne prežíva špecifickú atmosféru v Slovinsku a čelí tvrdej balkánskej náture. Na strane druhej je mladý talent Timotej Malovec, ktorý mieri na prestížnu univerzitu Kansas State a naplno zažíva americký univerzitný systém NCAA, v ktorom sa točia obrovské marketingové peniaze.Balkánske prostredie je známe svojou nekompromisnosťou a obrovským tlakom na výsledky, čo potvrdzuje aj Mário Ihring. Z jeho rozprávania je cítiť, že kultúra v regióne bývalej Juhoslávie neodpúšťa chyby, no ak hráč ukáže charakter a prispôsobí sa, získa si tamojšiu komunitu. O to viac si cení, že rýchlo našiel kľúč, ako si náročných ľudí získať na svoju stranu, pričom rozhodujúcim faktorom bola snaha o domácu komunikáciu.„S manažérom sme mali prvý kontakt po anglicky a hneď ako som mu povedal, že proste ‚pričam‘ (v preklade hovorím, pozn. red.), tak on hneď zmenil. Začal ma brať ako takého domáceho,“ spomína Mário Ihring na moment, ktorý mu ihneď otvoril dvere k rešpektu v novom klube.Úplný protipól k európskemu tlaku a fungovaniu predstavuje život 22-ročného Timoteja Malovca v zámorí. Americký systém sa čoraz viac mení na nekompromisný biznis, a to aj na univerzitnej úrovni vďaka pravidlám NIL, ktoré hráčom umožňujú zarábať na reklamách.Napriek pozlátku, tlaku na budovanie osobnej značky a faktu, že samotné univerzity berú basketbal ako veľkú šou, však mladý Slovák zostáva nohami pevne na zemi a prekvapuje svojím vysoko introvertným prístupom k životu.Namiesto budovania imidžu hviezdy volí radšej absolútne sústredenie. „Ráno sa zobudím, idem na tréning, po tréningu do školy, po škole znova na tréning a potom domáce úlohy, čítam knihy, pozerám filmy,“ opisuje svoj prísny každodenný stereotyp mladý reprezentant, ktorý dokonca funguje bez profilov na sociálnych sieťach.Bohatý rozhovor sa však netočí len okolo klubových povinností v zahraničí. Dvojica otvorene pomenúva aj tvrdú slovenskú realitu a demotiváciu, ktorú prinášajú prázdne domáce tribúny v porovnaní s elektrizujúcou kulisou v Európe či v zámorí.Nádejou na zmenu a akýmsi reštartom diváckeho záujmu má byť blížiaca sa predkvalifikácia na EuroBasket. V rámci nej sa totiž národný tím chystá na výnimočný zápas proti Kosovu na Zimnom štadióne Ondreja Nepelu.Ak vás zaujíma, aké ciele si obaja hráči kladú do budúcnosti, prečo je v Amerike dôležité strážiť si nielen to, čo poviete, ale aj ako to poviete, a akým spôsobom chcú vrátiť slovenský basketbal na svetovú mapu, nenechajte si ujsť mimoriadne úprimnú najnovšiu epizódu podcastu Pod košom na ŠPORT.sk.

Today we are joined by Dr. Lindsay Krasnoff, who is an historian, specializing in global sport, communications and diplomacy. She is also the Director of FranceandUS, and she lectures on sports diplomacy at New York University Tisch Institute of Global Sport. We met to talk about her most recent book: Basketball Empire: France and the Making of a Global NBA and WNBA (Bloomsbury, 2023). In our conversation, we discussed the rise of basketball in France, the differences between French and American basketball, and the way that French basketball stars such as Boris Diaw exemplify the new global “empire” of basketball that incorporates Africa, France and its overseas departments, and the USA. Krasnoff divides Basketball Empire into three parts that together investigate how French basketball developed from a low point in the middle of the 20th century to a global powerhouse contributing players to the NBA and the WNBA almost every year. Krasnoff argues that French basketball's success hinges on their ability make use of their connections both with the United States and with their former empire. In examining the growth of basketball in France, Krasnoff traces a sporting genealogy that links together players, coaches, and even commentators from around the globe who compete together in France and help produce a distinctive French style of basketball that nevertheless has appeal outside of the hexagon. In Basketball Empire, Krasnoff's first section takes off from her previous work on French association football, which looked at the development of Les Bleus. In the 1950s and 1960s, French basketball too was in crisis. In response, the French government, the Fédération française de basket-ball (FFBB), and even some sporting associations sought out new ways to improve the quality of play in France. Paris University Club brought in Americans who had played basketball in the NCAA but were now living in France to teach American approaches to the game. Individual players, including one of the earliest female French basketball stars Elisabeth Riffiod, watched film of American professionals like Bill Russell. The government redeveloped a national training centre: the National Institute of Sport, Expertise, and Performance (INSEP.) The French League professionalized in 1987. Since the 1990s, French basketball has enjoyed a rising number of successful EuroBasket and Olympic campaigns, including a men's silver and a women's bronze in 2020/21. Basketball Empire's second section uses micro-biographies to explore the ways that contemporary French players developed their skills, how they made their moves into the NCAA, the NBA or the WNBA, and the challenges and opportunities that these moves provided them as players. In this section in particular, Krasnoff's ability land and conduct interviews shines. She shows how diverse players, including Boris Diaw, Sandrine Gruda, Nicolas Batum, Marine Johannès, Diandra Tchatchouang, Evan Fournier, Mickaël Gelabale, and Rudy Gobert have become not only basketball stars but also informal diplomats that help build connections and translate between Africa, France and the United States. In the final section, Krasnoff considers why the French have been so successful at producing high quality men's and women's basketball players. She credits la formation à la française: the specific French training system that includes a national sports training center (the INSEP) as well as local and regional basketball academies (pôles espoirs). The future looks bright for French basketball and in our interview Krasnoff predicts French and US success in the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympiad.

In the 1950s and 1960s, French basketball too was in crisis. In response, the French government, the Fédération française de basket-ball (FFBB), and even some sporting associations sought out new ways to improve the quality of play in France. Paris University Club brought in Americans who had played basketball in the NCAA but were now living in France to teach American approaches to the game. Individual players, including one of the earliest female French basketball stars Elisabeth Riffiod, watched film of American professionals like Bill Russell. The government redeveloped a national training centre: the National Institute of Sport, Expertise, and Performance (INSEP.) The French League professionalized in 1987. Since the 1990s, French basketball has enjoyed a rising number of successful EuroBasket and Olympic campaigns, including a men's silver and a women's bronze in 2020/21. Basketball Empire's second section uses micro-biographies to explore the ways that contemporary French players developed their skills, how they made their moves into the NCAA, the NBA or the WNBA, and the challenges and opportunities that these moves provided them as players. In this section in particular, Krasnoff's ability land and conduct interviews shines. She shows how diverse players, including Boris Diaw, Sandrine Gruda, Nicolas Batum, Marine Johannès, Diandra Tchatchouang, Evan Fournier, Mickaël Gelabale, and Rudy Gobert have become not only basketball stars but also informal diplomats that help build connections and translate between Africa, France and the United States. In the final section, Krasnoff considers why the French have been so successful at producing high quality men's and women's basketball players. She credits la formation à la française: the specific French training system that includes a national sports training center (the INSEP) as well as local and regional basketball academies (pôles espoirs). The future looks bright for French basketball and in our interview Krasnoff predicts French and US success in the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympiad.

This week, host Richard Graves sits down with former Great Britain and England international basketball player Kofi Josephs, an athlete whose journey through elite sport has been anything but ordinary. From growing up in Birmingham to playing in front of Michael Jordan at the Jordan Brand Classic, suffering two major hip surgeries in the US collegiate system, becoming the British Basketball League's highest-scoring British player, and navigating the hidden psychological battles behind performance… Kofi's story is raw, real, and deeply relevant for anyone working in elite sport. Now the founder of WhyNotI, a preventative mental health tech platform designed specifically for elite athletes, Kofi is on a mission to reshape how professional environments understand – and support – the person behind the performer. This episode offers an unfiltered look at the pressures, cultural challenges, expectations, and mental load that athletes carry, and the systemic changes needed to truly support sustainable high performance. What You'll Learn The hidden mental toll of elite sport and why performance alone never tells the full story. How perfectionism, pressure, and identity shape athlete wellbeing – and where support structures fall short. Why mental health must be preventative, not reactive, if teams want consistency and longevity in performance. Insights into the collegiate system in the US and its cultural, emotional, and psychological challenges for young athletes. Why separating “the athlete” from “the person” is flawed, and how reframing this changes support strategies. The crucial role of coaches, GMs, and ownership in building environments where mental health is prioritised. How WhyNotI is using technology, psychology, and data to influence policy, culture, and player care across elite sport. About Kofi Josephs Kofi Josephs is a former professional basketball player who represented England at the Commonwealth Games and Great Britain at EuroBasket, competing across elite leagues worldwide including Germany, Spain, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, and Iceland. A psychology graduate and outspoken advocate for athlete mental health, Kofi has built a platform that blends his lived experience with scientific insight.
