Fascist Nazi Mod Real Men Wear Green Abusing His Position AGAIN

http://www.eurohoops.net/2014/02/dribbling/42340

Euroleague CEO Jordi Bertomeu was present in Athens, Greece, and before the game between Olympiacos and Anadolu Efes he spoke about almost every matter of the competition. However the most important part of the press conference was the way he presented the possible expansion of the NBA to Europe under the terms of the American league as almost an impossible plan. That’s why according to him the cooperation with Euroleague should be considered the only way for this to be done.

"There should be 5-6 really strong European teams in a league with a 130 million USD financial turnover. That means tickets which will cost 100 euros per average and at least 150 sellouts per season. Our television partners should pay ten times more for the rights. And we also have to answer how the salary cap will work under a possible six different taxation laws in different countries. There are many legal issues. A lot of people talk about NBA in Europe, but not about those matters. My place is to give answers. It’s easy to make the questions. Adam Silver, the new commissioner, is a great contributor to the sport. We have met and I think that we have a future together. We want to increase our cooperation and we want to see things realistically”.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

That is just an excerpt of the press conference.

Here is another excerpt of the same press conference, proving again that it happened, from the Euroleague's official website:

If I get accused of lying or making things up again, or if this gets deleted by Real Men Wear Green, like he did to the previous thread, I am filing a complaint with Jeff.

PS, screen caps of the previous thread can be sent to site admin as a complaint of mod abuse.

If you watch a damn press conference, you don't always have a damn "link". You have no right to accuse me of lying and making things up and to delete a good thread on a good topic that people want to talk about and that already had 3 pages of replies in a few minutes.

REAL MEN WEAR GREEN, STOP BEING SUCH A DICK AND SUCH A BAD MOD ALL THE DAMN TIME

And don't think that just because you deleted the thread that I am not sending an abuse report, real men wear green, because I am. I am sending an abuse report against your ass, you POS. Because it's like the 20th time you have done this to legit threads of mine.

so this is a different story to your post then. In your last thread you said that they were planning a merger and the CEO of euroleague thought they were ready. Now it turns out he just said there "should be" euro teams. Different connotations once again.

Again though, the nba said last time they evaluated this that it wasn't feasible yet for NBA teams to be going there mid season. They said they plan to do it in the next 10 years though and it will eventually happen just don't expect it soon.

I believe they were looking at NBA teams taking a road trip over there once a year while the euro teams came to the states multiple times on road trips.

one way or another the NBA will be moving to europe in the next 20 years. They've made it clear this is their intention on numerous occasions. How it's done is still not clear and every time I've read about their goals they've said it isn't possible yet but that was their end goal. They want the game to be more global, if transport jumps up in the next 20 years I imagine they would want to be in china as well.

Personally i think the nba is fine how it is aswell, if they want to push it more globally they should have a properly organised tournament of the top 2 teams from all the worlds top league play for a stupidly large amount of prize money after the seasons are finished

Those Euroleague teams in general are richer than the other NBA teams and they have bigger fan bases. You don't tell a team like Real Madrid, Barca, or CSKA to "do it like we do it".

Sure you can have them follow a salary cap or draft or whatever. But no way in hell are they going to follow some of the political bullshit that goes on in the NBA. Not when a single club can generate more revenues than 1/3 of the NBA does.

These will be power NBA clubs, just like the Celtics and the Lakers. Don't kid yourself different for one second.

And just to clarify, the Euroleague works as the teams signing contracts of what league they want to play in for European competitions. So yes, it would most definitely be a merger.

Total bullshit.

They have tons of money coming from investors the instant they get an NBA deal. All the TV and advertising money will be there. You sound like a complete moron.

Also don't even start that bullshit about the arenas. All this BULLSHIT is made up.

Arenas are all over Europe.

Barca has a 17,000 seat arena they can use right now and they are building a new arena anyway.

Madrid has an arena that is perfectly fine for the NBA just as it is and they are expanding it anyway.

And get it through your head - NBA arenas list capacity with temporary seats, European arenas do NOT.

So if you see an arena in Euroleague that says it seats 13,000, it could be the same as 17,000 or 18,000 in an NBA listing.

Barca would have ZERO problem selling out any games. You have no clue what you are talking about. Stop making up shit. You are a typical NBA only fan ignorant jackass. Barca sells their tickets in a package. So they sell their tickets as a season ticket in a purchase with football tickets sold in a bunch with season football packages.

Only super rich of the richest club supporters can afford to buy basketball tickets genius.

If they had an NBA club, they would OBVIOUSLY be selling the tickets separately idiot. Like they do when they have NBA games in Barcelona at Palau Sant Jordi. Where they sellout and fill the arena with 17,000 fans EVERY time.

You just ignored facts and repeated a bunch of bullshit.

Panathinaikos' arena has like 30,000 capacity and it's never once been listed as having more than 20,000 attendance ever by Euroleague.

I can think of like 10 games where it had over 20,000 attendance and Euroleague listed attendance around 14,000 to 18,000. So never even mind that those attendance figures are all total nonsense to begin with.

But on top of that, NBA "attendance figures" are TICKETS SOLD.

Euroleague "attendance figures" are people at the arena.

OK, so first GET THAT STRAIGHT.

Now, get it that, as I said above, they don't even get the numbers right. And they don't even get the capacities right either. Panathinaikos would have 30,000 people in the arena game after game and they were listing it as a 17,000 arena for years.

I do however believe they are trying to figure it out as they have been for quite some time.

The NBA has a 12-7 record against the Euroleague in games played using 1 FIBA ref and 2 NBA refs, instead of games that used 3 NBA refs.

And that is in games played under NBA rules.

The NBA is terrified...they are scared shitless.....the NBA REFUSES to play a game against the Euroleague with 3 FIBA refs, and/or a game against the Euroleague under FIBA rules.

Nice trolling attempt, but you failed.

The NBA has a 7-12 record against the Euroleague in games played using 1 FIBA ref and 2 NBA refs instead of games that used 3 NBA refs.

And that is in games played under NBA rules.

I wasn't trolling, I was stating a simple record that easily found online. If they are going to be a branch of the NBA in this so-called merge, would not they have to comply with NBA rules and referees? Leaving this sample size to be a true depiction of how they would do. Serious question. No I am not racist, nor am i psychotic (had a psych eval for my job), and i'm white european so i don't hate europeans.

Oh well. People bite when he trolls you all and its jacks up page views and ad views and so the mods bend the rules for him, no matter how toxic he is to the community.

If you stop replying to his threads, maybe he'll finally be subject to the same rules as the rest of us.

Edit: but that won't happen...you guys enjoy piling on him too much to just let him sit in his own threads and rot with his insanity.
this.

i dont normally agree with euroleague but having 6 more d-league teams brings more positive than negative (rookie development, etc)

Nick Calathes was Spanoulis' backup on both Panathinaikos and the Greek national team..........

in the NBA, with the Memphis Grizzlies......he somehow managed to average 14.7 points per game when he was put in the starting lineup......

http://espn.go.com/nba/player/splits/_/id/3969/nick-calathes

Spanoulis could probably average 35 in the NBA.

No. You were trolling HUGE.

First of all, you posted a record that half of the games did not even have anything to do with the Euroleague.

Second, in the actual Euroleague games, you can't count the games that are played with 3 NBA refs because they rig those games. It's 100% OBVIOUS to anyone that is not retarded. And if you claim differently, you are retarded.

There are 19 games between NBA and Euroleague teams, PLAYED UNDER NBA RULES MIND YOU, where there were 2 NBA refs and 1 FIBA ref (still at NBA's advantage).........but in those games they don't rig the games for the NBA teams. They call them fairly and objectively.

In those 19 games, played under NBA rules, the NBA is 12-7.

So cut the BULLSHIT. The level is very comparable. Especially when you factor in, as I and EVERY other Euroleague fan in this forum (EVERY other Euroleague fan in this forum) have said numerous times here, that the NBA has specifically chosen to purposely avoid playing every hot arena there is in Europe.

NBA teams have NEVER played in a difficult Euroleague arena EVER, and that is clearly by design, because both Olympiacos and Panathinaikos owners have said they have asked NBA to play them every year for years and they refuse to do so. Proving the NBA refuses to play in any hot arenas, where it's difficult to win.

So CUT THE BULLSHIT.

You most definitely were trolling.

Nick Calathes, Spanoulis' BACKUP in Panathinaikos and Greek NT is averaging 15 a game in the NBA as a starter.............

the guy was a freaking SCRUB in Euroleague.

Yeah, by comparison, Spanoulis would average in the same role, at an absolute minimum, 25-30 points a game. At an absolute minimum. I'm talking playing with a bum knee, he would be averaging 25 a game.
