Mark Cuban Said To Be Interested In Buying Euroleague Champions Panathinaikos Athens

[Euroleague]

The world in Greece is that Mark Cuban is interested in buying Euroleague champions Panathinaikos Athens. The club is up for sale and the asking price is said to be between $150 million - $200 million.

Panathinaikos has a yearly budget of $45 million, which is the same as what the new max NBA budgets will be supposedly under the new CBA. Panathinaikos plays in a 19,000+ seat arena.

The word is that if Cuban buys Panathinaikos and there is an NBA lockout, that Dirk Nowitzki would play with Panathinaikos during the NBA lockout.

[Miserio]

bullshit

[CelticBaller]

nolinksyo

[brain drain]

150 - 200 million is too much (I'd say 100 should be it), but generally, I think that basketball has a lot of potential and it would absolutely make sense for an NBA owner to invest there:
- there's still a lot of untapped potential for basketball in Europe. From a business standpoint, there's probably more room for growth than in the NBA
- Euroleage team could be used as an improved D-League team to bring young and promising players up to speed while at the same time being able to generate hype in Europe
- The lockout would be the perfect moment to start it, an NBA owner could at the same time generate hype for the bought club by playing his NBA team there and prepare the NBA team for the rest of the lockout season in the NBA, giving his team a headstart
- Cuban would probably be the right guy to do it.


Cons:
- Greeces economy is faltering, so this might pose serious business problems for the next years

[Chapallaz]

Word on the streets in Europe is that EuroLeague talks out of his ass. Paris is buzzing with the rumour that it happens quite a lot and in Rome they whisper it's nothing to be surprised with.

Panathinaikos B.C. already has yearly revenues of $21 million.

Look, it's probably not your fault. It's probably someone trolling you in your entourage, giving you false information just to see if you'll believe it.

Just to help, if the guy looks like this

Galis scored 50 points against Jordan and North Carolina in 1983. This is a fact.

It's better than most NBA teams, including the Mavs.

He scored 50 in a game against Jordan, but the people who saw that game said that Jordan didn't guard him a lot of minutes. It was a friendly game, too.

In the late seventies and early eighties several Greek coaches began to study their American counterparts like University of North Carolina's Dean Smith and Duke's Mike Krzyzewski, attending seminars in the USA and inviting the coaches to Greece. The Greek National Team toured the USA playing the Tarheels, and the Tarheels with Michael Jordan and Sam Perkins visited Athens to win a tournament there. But the key to Greece's success was ex-Seton Hall Greek-American guard Nikos Galis, an unstoppable scorer in college who continued his amazing play in the Greek basketball league. Galis, considered Greece's Michael Jordan, burned the UNC Tarheels for 50 points in an exhibition game in Chapel Hill.

You are an idiot. Minus $24 million profits for the year is far better than most NBA teams, including the Mavs.

[GOBB]

Why would Cuban buy a euro team when he owns the WORLD champion Dallas Mavs? You dont go from filet mignon to salisbury steaks. Cuban is about as interested as "John" Scheyer was in signing with the Maccabi Little Hats. Speaking of Scheyer how does he look for them anyway No Links Yo?

I cant even pronounce the PandorasBox Athens. Waste of money buying that team.

If Dirk wanted to play for a rec league he could stay in America. Atleast he'll get better competition from guys who f*cking DEFEND and play PHYSICAL. If Cuban wants to waste money on a team that won a recreational league title? Go buy an Arena football team. Dirk is not playing with them scrubs. Why would Dirk play with the Panorama Athiests anyway? He just defeated the Miami Heat. He's going to sit in America and have sex, get drunk and smoke.

Much better than playing with a bunch of guys who all look like f*cking brothers.

[Goliath Uterus]

Is that supposed to be impressive Euroleague? Any good professional basketball player should eaily be able to score that against a college team. And MJ (college MJ no less) didn't even guard him that much.

He's just another Euroleague scrub, and a surefire 7-8th man on hte benc for any NBA team.

Meeting Michael Jordan

The year 1982, is remembered by Greek basketball fans as the year when two legends of the game met in the same arena. Greece faced the UNC Tar Heels (North Carolina College) of Michael Jordan, in Sporting's arena.

25 year old Galis, played just according to his standards, but that was more than enough for young Jordan (who dunked flying over the head of a Greek player in that game) to say about him: "I think he's superb, he's a complete basketball player". During the game MJ teased Galis saying: "You're bad", as Nick confessed later.

Galis and Jordan met again playing in an exhibition game for the "DIMITRIA" festival. Galis scored 50 points this time and Michael Jordan, totally stunned, said: "I really did not expect to find such a good offensive player in Europe, especially in your country"!

Jordan was defending him though, and he did score 50. I was looking for a vid the other day, couldn't find one unfortunately but if someone has one we could give something interesting to this garbage thread.

MJ guarded him in that game.

That "any college team" consisted of these NBA players,

Players on that UNC team that played in the NBA included:

Michael Jordan
Kenny Smith
Joe Wolf
Sam Perkins
Brad Daugherty
Dave Popson

You are right, "any pro" can "easily score 50 against that team". You obviously have zero basketball knowledge.

Are you mentally challenged? Galis and Jordan played both against each other. They were both shooting guards idiot.

They are the world champions.

NBA = elite talent, worldwide players flock here to be apart of the best basketball league on planet Earth.

Dallas Mavs won the title and thier best player is Dirk. He's german yo. He didnt stay home and play for some crappy team you cant pronounce. He came to America and played YEARS here. America homeboy, home of the BRAVE. Not home of the FLOPPERS. Get out of here.

Yes, Galis was 26 and Jordan was 20 at the time in 1983. In the game in 1982, when Galis was 25 and Jordan was 19 (after he had won the national championship already).............

in that first game in Greece, Galis scored 35. But he got 50 in the next game in North Carolina.

WHO ****ING CARES. Your thread is about Mark Cuban buying a euroleague team which he is not. You made it up. It's total bullshit. He's not buying the team, Dirk is not playing there, so stop ****ing posting about it.

Why is this allowed to stay on the board? It's like fan fiction.

It was a game between North Carolina and Greek national team back in 1983. I would be shocked if there is any video of it. Even most NCAA tournament games were not broadcast then.

The NBA Finals back then were aired on several hours tape delay.

You're an idiot, those guys weren't pro's yet, the Greek scrub was.

Oh ok, thanks.

Do you think this guy > MJ?

No. Not better than Jordan. But back in the 1980s, the five best players on planet Earth were Jordan, Bird, Magic, Galis, Schmidt. That's not in order, but those were the top 5 players on the planet then.

Galis was in that group.

[Euroleague]

No, the NBA is the highest level of basketball in the world, therefore the Mavs are the world champs.



You're an idiot, those guys weren't pro's yet, the Greek scrub was.

Galis was NOT a pro player then idiot. Get your facts right. The reason Greece played North Carolina is because they were an amateur team. They did not become professional players until the 1989-90 season idiot.

The NBA is no way in hell the highest level of basketball in the world. The Mavs would be annihilated by any one of several national teams from around the world.

The Olympics/World Championship is a far higher level of basketball than the NBA is. The Mavs could not even stay within 30 points of any recent Olympic or World Champion team.

[GOBB]

The Mavs are the champions of USA/Canada only. Fact.

World champions. NBA = has players from around the world and IS the highest level of basketball competition on PLANET EARTH. Fact.

Enes Kanter is from a foreign land. Probably lives on the same block as you. Yet he wanted to come to America and play college basketball. Yet when that failed he declared for the NBA draft. How come he didnt stay home and play in the euroleague? The best of the best flock here.

The best of the best in America dont go to the euroleague. Fact.
The best owner in America isnt going to buy a euroleague team. Fact
The best european basketball player in the world isnt going to join a euroleague team. Fact
The OP will never give us a link. Fact fact fact!

[niko]

BTW, lots of sports teams lose money. The purpose of a sports team is not to first and foremost make money. It's nice, and ultimately you want to, but if you want to make money and not worry about wins, losses, etc. - don't own a sports team. Also, most of the teams are mixed with other business, or conglomerates, like the Yankees also have Yes, etc. It's rare you get a clear picture of how a team does.

So saying Team X is more sucessful than Team Y because they made more money is stupid. It makes no sense.

No one leaves college after playing Div 1 bball to play in the euroleague and not hope they get drafted. No elite basketball player like Wade, Bron, Kobe, Howard, Durant, DIRK leaves the NBA to play in the euroleague.

Anyone who goes from the NBA to the Europe or anywhere else to play is no longer starter/6th man quality. The only exception to this is Josh Childress and he sucked this past season in Phoenix.

It's possible for a player to HAVE BEEN an NBA starter and go to Europe. But their reason for going to Europe is that they can't get an NBA job anymore. They've gotten worse. It's not like they were being offered the MLE and chose to go to Europe.

There aren't any. He only likes to bring up people like Sean May, who can't make an NBA team anymore, as his examples. He thinks if they were good enough to play in the NBA or get drafted in the NBA at some point that they're good representatives of the NBA when really, they're players that NBA teams don't want anymore. Sometimes the NBA's garbage goes over to Europe and becomes Europe's garbage. Sometimes the NBA's garbage goes over to Europe and become good players. Either way, Europe takes the NBA's garbage. When was the last time a Euroleague SCRUB came to the NBA and tore it up?

The NBA is a lower level of competition than the EuroBasket.



:roll:

America has the gold medal at every level of International Basketball and nolinksyo still runs his mouth.


Just concentrate on your own Greek team homie. Their performance at the last FIBA WC was embarrassing.

[CelticBaller]

Links please. No NBA teams loses that much.
don't ever expect a link from him

[rezznor]

Still, impressive to score 50 in any game. Galis was a hell of a player.
maybe, but I bet he never averaged a quadruple double.

[Goliath Uterus]

Eurodunce always leaves threads like these with his tail tucked in between his legs

[kentatm]

The Mavs are the champions of USA/Canada only. Fact.


the Mavs would kick the shit out of every single team from Europe.

FACT

do you even watch basketball?

do you not realize that of al the NBA teams, Dallas is the most equiped to play against international competition?

and :lol at trying to say national teams would beat the Mavs. Not one of those teams, save for probably Team USA, would stand a chance.

[kentatm]

oh and BTW, if you do a Google search for Mark Cuban, Greek, Purchase, Buy, Panathinaikos Athens do y'all want to know what comes up?


THIS THREAD


there is no mention of it anywhere else.

:lol


NoLinksYo exposed as a bum again. :hammerhead:

[c3z4r]

Doesn't Op live in spain?

[fillmont]

I like when he tried to prove his point that the Mav's aren't world champions by saying that national teams would beat them.

It's a club competition, not a national one. An awful point to try to make.

[spacebump]

Rudy Fernandez won the Spanish King's Cup MVP twice. Tiago Splitter won the Spanish Supercup MVP twice and was the Spanish league's MVP once. They came over and haven't really done anything. Take any recent NBA MVP or Finals MVP and place them on a European team. The NBA player would dominate instantly.

[Quizno]

galis would have been a very good NBA player, stop hating...galis was also american :oldlol:

also no links

I think the Lakers would be the best equipped. Celtics were before they traded Perk. Dirk wouldn't get all those soft free throws whilst the Lakers bigs and Artest would be able to body up.

[JGXEN]

Where's No Links Yo? :roll:

[Grinder]

Lmao.

[Chicago Ted]

Why would Cuban buy a euro team when he owns the WORLD champion Dallas Mavs? You dont go from filet mignon to salisbury steaks. Cuban is about as interested as "John" Scheyer was in signing with the Maccabi Little Hats. Speaking of Scheyer how does he look for them anyway No Links Yo?

I cant even pronounce the PandorasBox Athens. Waste of money buying that team.

If Dirk wanted to play for a rec league he could stay in America. Atleast he'll get better competition from guys who f*cking DEFEND and play PHYSICAL. If Cuban wants to waste money on a team that won a recreational league title? Go buy an Arena football team. Dirk is not playing with them scrubs. Why would Dirk play with the Panorama Athiests anyway? He just defeated the Miami Heat. He's going to sit in America and have sex, get drunk and smoke.

Much better than playing with a bunch of guys who all look like f*cking brothers.

Euroleage is a fool but with this post you are dangerously reaching his level of stupidity.

Spain would have a chance to beat the Mavs. Dont fool yourself and make them look like 1992 dream team.

[CeltsGarlic]

Like who you euroBUM? Name them right now.

Josh Childress was the only notable American who left the NBA to play in the euroleague. And he did so for financial reasons because he ended up getting paid more money there than he would have in the NBA.

What NBA starters, 6th men go overseas to play every season?

2010-11 season -
2009-10 season -
2008-09 season -
2007-08 season -

Thats 4 years, put the names of every player down or shut up.

Sidenote: Why do you avoid "John" Scheyer signing with the Maccabi little hats? Afraid to admit you are wrong you stubborn mule? How do you say MULE in greek? Let me guess, Lakas. :roll:


That is incorrect but I dont wanna argue.

[LJJ]

So Cuban having any interest in Pana provided to be a huge lie? Surprise surprise....

[Nick Young]

If Panithinakos was in the NBA they would be a bottom 5 team in the league every year.


Seriously. Their best player is Diamantidis, the man too afraid to go to the NBA and become an 8th man:lol

Way to be generous. They wouldn't win 10 games, and I'm dead serious.
