Sofia are defnintely the team of the decade with 5 EL titles and 3 EBL titles. Hamburg, Oslo and Stockholm (all EL teams) did not make it to the playoffs in the second decade of EBL competition.
Oslo are a strange case, they have an overall winning percentage bang on .500, but have only made the playoffs twice. Their lowest ever win totla was 73, their highest 93 and they have finished with between 77 and 83 wins on 13 occasions.
There are still 7 teams that are yet to make the EBL series and still 12 teams that haven't won it all yet.
