View this Thread in Original format

Anyone from europe, and not only interested in basketball and euroleague, what are your predictions for next season, I mean who's gonna win IYO?
Of course i go for my home teams Kauno Zalgiris and Vilniaus Lietuvos Rytas...

I use to follow the Euroleague sometimes when I really can. Ofcourse I really love Partizan PMB and that's because they're from Belgrade, Serbia & Montenegro.

I also prefer to watch Barcelona and Panathinaikos because they've got some of Serbia & Montenegro's best players around atm (Besides those which are in the NBA). Bodiroga is a true legend in Yugoslavian basketball.

InterMilan31
Virtus Bologna and now Armani Jeans Milano because Inter owns them hehe

Outside of Italy Barca but thats about it. Euroleague games are better than NBA regular season games but not as good as NBA playoffs pissed too that they dont show this in the USA.

I will say Maccabi for the 3rd in a roll,theyve already signed Will Solomon and now theyre going to add another NCAA almost all-star or something.

i agree that Euroleague games are more fun to watch then NBA regular season even though the level is lower,its like watching the NCAA at times,the games flow better and are shorter - watching an NBA game in ESPN is a punishment! they have like 21 self-commercials breaks every minute and each game is taking like 3.5 hours,eurolegue is taking like a hour and a helf.:eyespop:

Yea...even though i hate the Spurs,grizzlies,Suns and Mavs - what tools they are...

Euroleague is like watching the NBA end-of-bench players playing for the championship,its lighter,it doesnt take too much time and its not televised in 4am like the NBA is over here.

Playoffs in the nba especially with the Blazers are the best! :-)
^with that being that said - the regular season is still very gay.

Well,im not trying to upset you but the Spurs are annoying,don't ask me why...i just hate Ginobili's hair and the fact that he's overrated a bit,Popovich "4 touchdowns in one game!" face evertime his team is winning,the Uniform and the Logo are very ugly,theyre always winning even when they don't deserve it,theyre GM is not stupid like all the other GM's in the league,they can pick a guy from the 2nd round and he'll be an allstar,all the players are kissing and hugging each other every second and theyre all such good international friends...it makes me sick!:whip: :stongue:

And like a said - NBA is fun and all and its the highest level but each querter should be 10min' and each game should be an hour and half MAX! ing commercials every second...can drive a guy crazy!
I think that EL flows better and it CAN be exiting and games can be tighteven though its in a mediocre level,and the crowd is also nice but theres no depressing empty seats only here,in Barca,in Astodiantes and maybe Moscow and some other few teams.
i guess b-ball in Europe is like Football in the U.S.
