Association Sportive de Monaco Basket-ball Club (commonly referred to as AS Monaco Basket) is a French-registered Monaco-based basketball club. They were founded in 1924 and play in the LNB Pro A. The team plays their home games at Salle Gaston Médecin, and are coached by Savo Vučević. == History == About five years after the club was founded itself, AS Monaco Basket was founded in 1924. They finished as runner-ups following the 1950 season, which is regarded as one of their greatest triumphs in the history. Monaco also won the LNB Pro B championship for the 1973 season with one of the greatest offenses in the continent. AS Monaco Basket first joined the ''Nationale 1'' for the 1973-74 season, where they finished ninth place. They made their first FIBA Korać Cup appearance in 1974, losing in the group stage to other notable teams such as ASVEL Basket, Levski, and Brina AMG Sebastiani Basket. They entered the same tournament again for the 1982-83 season, but lost to MBK Dynamo Moscow in the group stage, despite a far better finish.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.linguasport.com/baloncesto/internacional/clubes/c3/C3_83.htm )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.linguasport.com/baloncesto/internacional/clubes/c3/C3_75.htm )〕 Entering the 1980s, Monaco was in the process of securing their title as one of the most dangerous teams in French basketball. They reached the final game of the French Federation Cup, losing to Limoges CSP with the score of 96-81. The Red and Whites became a threat in the LNB Pro A, to what it was renamed at the time, after former NBA player, Robert Smith, joined the team in 1985. He was named the league's most valuable player after helping AS Monaco surface in the Pro A.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.asmonacobasket.com/?page_id=374 )〕 After Smith left the team, Monaco found themselves descending in the league. They were relegated to the LNB Pro B later in the decades and eventually ended up in the Nationale 1. They would never return to the LNB Pro A, the highest division of basketball in France. However in 2014, AS Monaco Basket was crowned champions of the third-tier and finally returned to the Pro B. In the 2014–15 season, Monaco were the Pro B champions and promoted to the Pro A. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「AS Monaco Basket」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
