      <title>Ricky Rubio, Regal FC Barcelona</title>
      <description>Not too many teenage athletes need no introduction to an international audience, but the next &lt;a href="mailto:fanmail2@euroleague.net" class="ApplyClass"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fan Mail&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; guest on Euroleague.net is certainly one of them. Ricky Rubio of Regal FC Barcelona has been in the spotlight for several years, first dominating the European junior circuit, then setting steals records as a 16-year-old Euroleague rookie, winning the ULEB Cup, the Spanish King's Cup and a silver medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. By then, the entire basketball world had taken notice, but Rubio keeps giving fans and experts alike more reasons to pay attention. This season, the 19-year-old point guard has been the only player to start all 16 games on the team with the Euroleague's best overall record, directing a Barcelona team otherwise full of veterans that he leads in assists, steals, free-throw accuracy and plenty of intangibles. As such, Rubio is one major player to watch as Barcelona heads into the Playoffs for a five-game quarterfinal series against its eternal rival, Real Madrid, starting on Tuesday, March 23. Before the start of the series, Rubio will take &lt;a href="mailto:fanmail2@euroleague.net" class="ApplyClass"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fan Mail&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; , so now's your chance to &lt;a href="mailto:fanmail2@euroleague.net" class="ApplyClass"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ask Ricky&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; your question!</description>

      <title>Omer Asik, Fenerbahce Ulker</title>
      <description>One of the world's most promising young big men, Fenerbahce Ulker center Omer Asik, will keep pushing for success. &lt;!--When he arrived as an unknown in the middle of the 2007-08 season, it's fair to say that Fenerbahce Ulker center Omer Asik took the Euroleague by storm. His first full phase was that season's Top 16, during which he averaged more blocks, 3.2 per game, than any Euroleague player in any phase of the competition in the previous five years! What's more, his 20-minute-per-game contribution helped lift Fenerbahce to the Quarterfinal Playoffs, still its high-water mark in the competition. While answering your Fan Mail this week, Asik recalled that fast Euroleague start among the highlights of his young career, even as he promised that he and his Fenerbahce teammates were ready to push for even more success. "As a team, we have a desire to be in the Final Four," Asik said in one answer. "The thing is that, sometimes being a quality team is not always enough to be a success. For this reason, we know that we have to act together as a team, and then it will not be impossible for us to reach our goals."--&gt;</description>
