The Euroleauge is tougher than the NBA

[TonyMontana]

Not more skilled. Not more talented. Tougher.

The coaches do not give the players handjobs and are tough on them similar to NFL coaches. The play is much more physical. Much more contact is allowed.

Again, please don't interpret this as the Euroleague being more talented. It is simply a tougher league to play in, both physically and mentally.

There is a reason why every NBA player that is past their prime goes to the CHINA league instead of the Euroleague. NBA players are for the most part mentally weak and China caters to them even more than the NBA teams do. They can dominate weak competition and be worshiped. None of these older ex NBA players ever dare go to the Euroleague and theres a reason for that. They are going to have to work harder than they ever did in the NBA.

[KyrieTheFuture]

Euroleague is only tougher because the players have to survive on below minimum wage paychecks since no one watches that shitty league

[cos88]

op is right as much as i hate agreeing with a phagot of his size.


the top teams in the euroleague and even some middle level teams are tougher and play better defense than 75% of the teams in the league ( most from the no defense west conference ).


and that is the only thing the euroleague is better than nba

[TonyMontana]

NOBODY ****ING CARES ABOUT THE EUROLEAGUE. It's a vastly inferior league in another country. Stop posting about it. WTF is with you people?

The Toronto Raptors are a vastly inferior team in another country. Do you have a problem with them being discussed as well?

And I made this post because I see lots of ignorant comments like this one bashing the Euroleague when the moron has probably never watched a single game of it. The Euroleague requires toughness. The NBA requires height, long wingspan, and athletisicm. NBA basketball players are probably some of the mentally weakest athletes in any professional sport. Few have been catered to more their entire life and I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these guys were never yelled at a single time. They would cry and become an emotional wreck.

So Jordan was mentally weak?

[TonyMontana]

So Jordan was mentally weak?

One player represents the thousands that have ever played?

And Jordan was entirely catered to. How do you think he'd respond if Phil Jackson tore him a new asshole in practice? He would most likely start yelling, cursing and storm out of the facility with his middle fingers held up. Where as your average euroleague player would merely accept the criticism and make the suggested changes. Jordan thought he was above the sport and in a way he was right because of the way others put him on a pedetsal.

The same people who prefer college basketball to the NBA. The NBA turns people away because of how many mentally weak prima donnas there are in it. The only reason they are in the league at all is because of the height, wingspan, athletisicm they were blessed with. Nothing else.

You turn on the Euroleague for comparison and you see humans that your average working class can relate to. Guys who leave it all on the floor. Guys who will work hard. Guys who will do whatever it takes to win. Guys who can accept criticism.

Are those games all "NBA preseason" games?

You do realize those are pointless exhibitions right? And the strength of the Euroleague teams(heart, toughness, will to win) are not attributes that are usually on display in an exhibition. When everyone is just going through the motions it is no surprise at all that the team with taller, longer, and better athletes will win more often than not. I'm not saying the Euroleague teams would win more often than not if the games meant something, but that head to head matchup would be A LOT closer.

And the best, most toughest boxer would get wrecked by a bad hockey player in a game of hockey. Different sports. Different objectives. Who's dumb now?

[outbreak]

so by your logic I guess the leagues down in the congo are tougher than euro league, they have to survive on so much less while still performing. Hell the players who are chosen to go live in basketball camps in china talked about in that yao documentary must be the toughest players in the world with the pressure and discipline their coaches put on them with beatings and forced practices. We should all give up and watch other leagues based on how tough it is? **** the NBA, let's televise the d-league because those guys have to get by on buses and 40k a year!

Actually, many EL teams (especially coaches) have been quoted saying these H2Hs are important. VERY important. A huge measuring stick to their teams success. The NBA? Not so much, but talent alone renders them a 44-10 advantage. Just imagine NBA teams going all out and playing their starters ie. like they do in the regular-season/EL teams do?

If the Euroleague is so much tougher then why did V-Span only average 2.7 ppg in the NBA? isn't he the best player in Euroleague?

only playing 8.8 MPG certainly had something to do with it. And you going to act like 23 year old Spanoulis didn't lead a bunch of unknown greek players to a win over USA in 2006? That was a team that consisted of Chris Paul, Dwyane Wade, Gilbert Arenas, Kirk Hinrich, Bruce Bowen, Shane Battier, LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and Dwight Howard.

Spanoulis had 20 points in the game leading his Greek team over a team of NBA All-stars. Don't you find it odd how these NBA teams featuring superstars on the entire roster sometimes struggle to beat these European teams which more often than not are lucky to have a single player who even plays in the NBA?

But that's beside the point. It is well known that Euroleague is less about individualism and more about the team. Obviously Euroleague "stars" do not compare to NBA "stars. For example it is unheard of for a single player to average 20 PPG in the Euroleague. This includes NBA players as well. Their individual statistics are much lower in the Euroleague compared to NBA(assuming they get similar minutes.)

An athletic swingman with poise, talent and a knack for winning - especially in the biggest games - Anthony Parker became a superstar by leading Maccabi Tel Aviv to back-to-back Euroleague titles in 2004 and 2005. No team had been able to repeat in more than a generation, and Parker was Maccabi's undisputed leader. He was named Euroleague MVP in the second of those title seasons and the one that followed, becoming the only player so honored in consecutive years. Parker's alley-oop dunks, finesse and good-as-gold mid-range shot turned him into an icon for Maccabi fans, though he was respected for his professionalism as much as he was admired for his talent. Between 2004 and 2006, Parker piled up trophies as double champion, two-time all-Euroleague first-team selecion and Final Four MVP. Parker and Maccabi reached another title game in 2006, just missing on a historic three-peat, but by then their legacy together had been cemented as Parker simply dominated the Euroleague at his peak. He still holds the single-season record for performance index ratings in a season, 2004-05, and had the next-best rating the following one. Parker also hit the second-most free throws in any season all decade and and 2005-06 seasons still rank first and second for the decade.

In each of his five seasons with the club, Maccabi reached the European Final Four (and reached the Final four times). He was twice selected Euroleague MVP of the Season (2005, 2006), and was named the MVP of the Euroleague Final Four in 2004.
Parker owns the best career index of all time in the Euroleague with an average of 21.4 index points. He completed his Euroleague career (90 games) with impressive averages of 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.6 steals, while compiling excellent shooting percentages from every range – 56% from two, 41% from three, and 82% from the foul line.

Bucks regular season Euroleague record............it would be 2-8 in a good group. I think even if they got in a very easy group they would be absolutely LUCKY as hell to go 4-6.

Euroleague regular season is 10 games? :roll: no wonder they get spanked every time they play NBA teams

Why does the number 3 bother you so much? Do you also hate Larry Bird since he also has 3 championships (more valuable, but still)?

He can just say the truth. That he won 3 European championships. Why is it so freaking hard for him to state the truth?

Why can't he state the truth?

What he says is bullshit.

It's like calling an NCAA or D-League title an NBA championship.......

You know, because anything won in North America equals an NBA title.......since you know, anything won in Europe must be a Euroleague title.

Who's Harry?

Harry is a lying bastard and I hope he contracts something soon.

[SamuraiSWISH]

Mental, and physical toughness started disappearing from the NBA game in the early 2000s with the influx of the babied, coddled, hyped HS talent that was entering the league ata rapid rate. Diluted the product, less intelligence, less skill, less mental toughness. From men to boys. And LMAO @ even insinuating MJ isn't mentally tough.

Who are you talking about Moe?

[Euroleague]

The 14-31 Sixers beat Bilbao who are 5-5?

Bilbao does not play in Euroleague. Another rocket scientist........

Is this that HarryCallahan guy I've been seeing around here? What did he lie about?

Yes, and if you had ever seen a Euroleague game even once in your entire life, you would know that. But of course, you don't know that, because you ave never seen a Euroleague game.

Yet you go on and on about it, like you are an expert on the level of it. Because you are a troll and a prick.

HarryCallahan is a mental case, just ignore him, haven't seen a more obsessive poster in my time here.

There is no way you can prove that KobesFinger is an actual rocket scientist without factual evidence. Either show it, or stop making false accusations.

That being said, Eurocup/Euroleague is there really a difference? :confusedshrug:

Still waiting for you to deny the second part of my comment

Thanks for heads up, I'll try to avoid him.

And officially, we have yet another gabepizza alias. So he has Dr.J4ever and Milbuck as alias accounts officially now.

Said you're his alt.

How come they lifted your ban so quickly? You doing sexual favors for the mods? :coleman:

[Black and White]

I don't really understand what the debate is here anymore, it's over, only 2 delusional posters think the EL is better than the NBA.

:wtf: Which thread did he say that in?
No clue lol. Not denying that I would if I could though.

[KobesFinger]

Bilbao does not play in Euroleague. Another rocket scientist........

It doesn't say anywhere in my post that they do, I simply posted their record which is 5-5.

I'm going to play basketball for 2 hours, I'll be back later to talk more

:oldlol: Euroleage, all you do is
1) insult people
2) accuse them of being alts

Are you ever going to answer the question directly or use actual evidence in your argument?

[moe94]

This is why EL is one of the GOAT posters. Denying this is asinine. He brings hilarity and he doesn't even try.

[spacebump]

As Spanoulis said to a Greek newspaper, he was talking about having the ball in his hands and running an offense. That's all. It was not a player comparison.

Van Gundy, T-Mac, and anyone else saying anything to the contrary, took that OUT OF CONTEXT.
