The 1966/67 EuroLeague season brought together 25 teams but two of those withdrew before the tournament. The reigning champions, the Italian side – Olimpia Milano was able to reach the EuroLeague Finals for the second consecutive year. Many teams were relieved to see that no Soviet Union team was taking part in the EuroLeague.
The favorites, however, did not dissappoint and reached the Final Four stage. It was played in the Spanish capital – Madrid. For the local fans, it was a joy to see the hometown team having success and winning their third EuroLeague title. In the Final, Real beat the Olimpia team 91-83. The 30-year-old Real’s forward Emiliano Rodriguez scored 29 points and won the Finals MVP award. He finished the season with 174 points in 10 games, averaging 17.4 points per game.
The Top Scorer award was secured by Olimpia’s guard – Steve Chubin. He had a stellar season, scoring 270 points in 12 games, averaging 22.5 points per game. The Slavia VŠ Praha’s forward Jiri Zidek was close, scoring 268 points in 11 games, averaging 24.4 points per game. Chubin was also excellent in the Final game against Real, scoring 34 points. Still, it wasn’t enough to bring his team to a second consecutive title. He had too much weight to carry on his shoulders on the offensive side.
