In all seriousness, it's a fact that Madrid is a borderline playoff level NBA team anyway. The fact that they play in Euroleague doesn't diminish their quality as a team one bit:pimp:

[FreezingTsmoove]

Thats why I stayed out of the Euroleague thread when you all were bashing how shit the Euroleague is.

Anyone who knows a shit about international basketball knows how much of a joke it is to say NBA ball is >>>>> Euroleague

At the end of the day its grown men vs grown men.

Not surprising Victor Oladipo played 33 minutes and did nothing defensively. He was getting cooked at Chris Pauls summer camp by incoming freshman Dennis Smith Jr during the summer

[Doranku]

How the **** did OKC give up 142 points to a Euroleague team? :lol

I am by no means saying Euroleague anything. All I am saying is that there is without a doubt teams in the Euroleague that could beat NBA teams. There are euroleague player that are better than NBA players.

And dont give me that bullshit OKC didnt care. You dont score 137 points and dont care.

Cant wait for the ultimate backpedal by posters on here screaming

OKC didnt care they werent playing hard because its pre season :facepalm

Euroleague as poster is dumb as f*ck, Euroleague as league is 2nd in the world, no question..

[Fiba basketball]

OKC didn't play the best they could but not because lack of effort from the players but because of resting Westbrook too much and injury Adams got.

With them OKC would have won for sure.

But than again Real isn't that good of a team. They used to be good but last season they were 12-15 in EL and got humiliated by Fener in top 8.
And this year I have a feeling they will be even worse.

I mean they replaced Rodrigez who was one of their best players (although his last season wasn't anything special, which just shows how bad Real was) with 17 year old Doncic (Great prospect and I'm sure he'll become an amazing player but he isn't good enough at this moment to replace Rodrigez).

Only way Real could be good this year is if Rudy starts playing like he did in his prime and after all the injures he had I don't think that's possible.

Real Madrid is NBA level team, maybe not OKC level, but definetly NBA level team.Not very surprising that despite playing by NBA rules managed to win due to hot shooting night and OKC not showing the best game and limiting Westbrook's playtime.

[G-train]

It's OK Russ, Kobe lost as well.

[Fiba basketball]

wait till Wednesday they facing barca

Well Barca might be even worse than Real this season. They couldn't even score 60pts in their last game.

It's sad to see how bad both Real and Barcelona had become compared to 5 or 6 years ago.

Barca didn't find a replacement for Navarro (well it's a big question if there ever will be Spanish player as good as Navarro and if so if he would choose Europe over NBA too) and Tomic, who was best C in EL, for some reason (I heard his kid is very sick but don't know if that's true or has an impact on his game) started playing like shit all of a sudden.

And it's not just them, a lot of othere powerhouse teams are weaker than before. For example PAO isn't the same team ever since Diamantidis got old and Obradovic left, OLY is headed in same direction with Spanoulis getting closer to retirement.

[FKAri]

Well your idea of ">>>" is not the same as many others when you say several euro teams can make the playoffs in the NBA. I think maybe 1-2 teams could make the playoffs in the NBA and even then I would say that means the leagues are pretty close or about as close as the 2nd best league gets to the best league in almost any other sport. ">>>" to me sort of implies that the best in euro would lose to the worst in the NBA.

[Euroleague]

Euroleague will never let NBA fans live this one down :lol


Real Madrid just EXPOSED the Thunder and the NBA. /Euroleague


Euroleague > NBA confirmed.

What? EuroLeague teams beat NBA teams all the time. In fact, if the games are just reffed 60/40 in favor of the NBA teams (like this one), the EuroLeague teams usually win.

It's the games that are reffed 80/20 in favor of NBA teams (most of them), that the NBA teams win.

Anyway, nothing to brag about in this game. EuroLeague's good teams should be able to beat teams like OKC, when both teams are playing all their players, and no one is giving star players big minutes - because good EuroLeague teams are deeper and more versatile than NBA teams.

Anyway, probably about a 1 out of 100 chance that Barca beats OKC in the next game.

[Euroleague]

And the reason for that probably 1 out of 100 chance for Barca to beat Real Madrid is,

They are ravaged with injuries. Just one of their guards is available. None of their point guards are available, and almost half their team is out with injuries. They even called up players from their farm team, to fill in the roster.

No way in hell can you beat the Thunder without any guards, and especially with no point guards on your roster.

It's kind of unfortunate, because I am pretty sure a healthy Barca would have beaten this Thunder team. And 2-0 against the NBA this time would have been nice. Damn injuries though with Barca, I would be shocked if they won.

And before NBA only fans here start trolling and lying, and saying this is not true - the following Barca rotation players are all out with injuries:

PG Tyrese Rice
PG Pau Ribas
SG Juan Carlos Navvaro
SG Petteri Koponen
C Shane Lawal

They are down to their 3rd string shooting guard being used as their starting point guard, and a 17 year old kid that they called up from their farm team, as their backup point guard.

Now if the Thunder lost that game..............now THAT would be something to talk about.

The Thunder losing to Real Madrid is a story to no one, except delusional NBA only fans, that really live in a fairy tale world, as far as how nuts they are with overrating the NBA, and underrating the EuroLeague.

There is no news here, unless the Thunder lose to a decimated by injuries Barca team in the next game.

[Milbuck]

but but but the NBA is 1000x better than Europe so shouldn't they have won by 50 with the rest of their squad?
OKC is probably a 15 win team without Westbrook. I would expect the greatest team in Euroleague history to beat a 15 win OKC squad.

I'd say this performance puts Euroleague over CBA, by just a hair. Still well below NCAA though.

[wordsRweapons]

swept in the 1st round of euroleague playoffs = "the greatest team in Euroleague history"

[Euroleague]

Oh, and this Coach Nick POS............

this mofo can suck it....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK10JzbWcAA

"Real Madrid and Olympiacos are almost as good as an average mid major (in other words not even a good college team) NCAA college team."

"It's not as good as an upper level college team".

"Rudy Fernandez is the only player that could ever play in the NBA"......

Oh yeah, and Nikola Mirotic played on that team, and like a year later he made a video claiming, how he was for sure "an NBA level player".

In other words, according to Coach Nick, an AVERAGE college team could drop 142 points on the Thunder, and beat them.

Hey Coach Nick, go to hell.

[G-train]

OKC is probably a 15 win team without Westbrook. I would expect the greatest team in Euroleague history to beat a 15 win OKC squad.

I'd say this performance puts Euroleague over CBA, by just a hair. Still well below NCAA though.

They are a 25-30 win team without Westbrook.
The nets won 21 games last season with actual junk.
OKC today had RWB for 22 mins, Kanter full game, Oladipo full game and solid role players playing full games.

You either have sadly lowered yourself to a pathetic troll, or you are a legitimate basketball DOLT.

[G-train]

Coach Nick doesn't understand basketball at all.

The 5% of stuff he says that is correct, someone else directly told him and he repeated it.

[bdreason]

It's the Thunder's first pre-season game of the year... halfway across the planet. Real Madrid is a legit team, but let's not get too excited.

[Euroleague]

Llull should play in the NBA

He can easily play in the NBA, but to say he "should" is wrong.

He has to take 8-9 ridiculous heat checks a game to get into a flow on offense, and an NBA coach won't let some 30 year old Euro from Euroleague rookie do that.

He could do well in the Spurs, Warriors, teams like that. In the Rockets, he would never touch the ball.

[G-train]

It's the Thunder's first pre-season game of the year... halfway across the planet. Real Madrid is a legit team, but let's not get too excited.

It's more so an education for Americans who rarely leave their mom's basement, let alone there block let alone their city or state.... that USA doesn't produce some super human life form of basketballer.

Multiple times now Euroleague teams have beaten competent NBA teams, yet people still can't accept that there are good teams worldwide, and would rather insult these players and teams out of their own insecurities.

[Euroleague]

OKC didn't play the best they could but not because lack of effort from the players but because of resting Westbrook too much and injury Adams got.

With them OKC would have won for sure.

But than again Real isn't that good of a team. They used to be good but last season they were 12-15 in EL and got humiliated by Fener in top 8.
And this year I have a feeling they will be even worse.

I mean they replaced Rodrigez who was one of their best players (although his last season wasn't anything special, which just shows how bad Real was) with 17 year old Doncic (Great prospect and I'm sure he'll become an amazing player but he isn't good enough at this moment to replace Rodrigez).

Only way Real could be good this year is if Rudy starts playing like he did in his prime and after all the injures he had I don't think that's possible.


Sergio Rodriguez was like half of that entire team's offensive firepower. It's amazing, but yeah, Real looks really much, much worse as a team on offense without him. Even though he's awful on defense.

I mean damn...the difference between Llull and Doncic running their offense, as compared to Sergio Rodriguez is incredible. Llull and Doncic added together don't have even half of Rodriguez's play making, court vision, or dribble penetration skills.

[Euroleague]

this years real madrid is at the best top 8 euro team..

Dude, this EuroLeague is insane right now. There is no guarantee that even freaking CSKA can make the playoffs - not in a league as stacked and deep as current EuroLeague.

Real Madrid is definitely talented enough and capable of doing it, but no way in hell can you just say they are a playoff team like it's a fact. No way, not when some of the worst teams in EuroLeague, like Zalgiris, even have a deep and good roster.

I don't think you can pencil in any team in EuroLeague for top 8. I mean, yeah, as Fiba said, Real Madrid went 12-15 in EuroLeague last year, and now this season, just the regular season alone is 30 games long, and all of the weak and easy to beat teams were contracted out of the league, as it went from 24 teams last season, down to just 16 teams this season....

Plus, they lost Sergio Rodriguez, and with all due respect to Sergio Llull and Luka Doncic, anyone that has watched Real when they had Rodriguez as their main point guard, can see that their offense was miles and miles better then that it is now, with Llull and Doncic running the team.

Again, Real certainly has the talent without question, but they are not a shoe in for anything.

[Euroleague]

wait till Wednesday they facing barca

OKC will definitely beat Barca (I think). No way can you beat a Westbrook led team without any guards available on your roster, due to injuries.

[Euroleague]

Well Westbrook only played the first quarter and 10 mins of the third quarter. OKC was blowing them out when he was in.

Only ONE Real Madrid player logged more than 28 minutes in the game. And that was Sergio Llull, who played 35 minutes, because Real's backup point guard (Luka Doncic) is a 17 year old high school senior.

So Llull played 35 out of 53 minutes at point guard, a 17 year old high school senior played the rest of the minutes at point guard..........and no other Real Madrid player played more than 28 minutes........

Stop making excuses.

Real used just as big a rotation of players, and rested their best players, and played their youngest players, and all their bench, just exactly the same way.

This is what is so annoying about NBA only fans when they start these excuses whenever an NBA team loses to a EuroLeague team.

The EuroLeague teams are also playing their bench just as much, or more even in these games.

[Euroleague]

Well Barca might be even worse than Real this season. They couldn't even score 60pts in their last game.

It's sad to see how bad both Real and Barcelona had become compared to 5 or 6 years ago.

And it's not just them, a lot of othere powerhouse teams are weaker than before. For example PAO isn't the same team ever since Diamantidis got old and Obradovic left, OLY is headed in same direction with Spanoulis getting closer to retirement.

Actually, Panathinaikos will be much better this year I think than they were in the last 4 years or so. Exactly because they finally got rid of Diamantidis. Diamantidis had been playing like an old washed up has been the last 4 years, yet they still based their whole team around him.

All Diamantidis did all game long was run pick and roll 100 times in each game, and just keep jumping in the air and throwing wild passes all over the court.

I know Nick Calathes absolutely sucks, and he's their main point guard now, which is not good, since Calathes is one of the worst rotation point guards in EuroLeague.

But without Diamantidis' corpse on the floor, they can open up their offense, and actually generate something. Especially with Bourousis in the team. I mean current Bourousis is miles and miles better than Diamantidis of the last 4 years.

As far as Spanoulis retiring, he said wants to play 2-3 more years in Olympiacos, and then go back to the NBA. So I don't think they have to worry about it for the next couple of years anyway.

[Euroleague]

OKC is probably a 15 win team without Westbrook. I would expect the greatest team in Euroleague history to beat a 15 win OKC squad.

Just for the record, this Milbuck A-HOLE is the same guy that claimed here many, many, MANY times that "Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nikola Mirotic, and Mario Hezonja are the three greatest players in Euroleague history".

He also claimed that, "Luka Doncic is the best player in EuroLeague right now".

The game looked to be a blowout before Westbrook and Adams went out.

Unless that first half blowout occurred while Real Madrid's best players were out then my point still stands.

[gabepizza]

And OKC just beat Barcelona. And in neither game, the win in Barcelona or the overtime loss to Real Madrid did OKC play Westbrook in the 4th corner or OT.

And both Barca and Madrid were in the Euroleague playoff last year so both were a top 8 Euroleague team

So the OKC back-ups lost in OT to one top Euroleague team on their homecourt and beat another in their home court.

Real rested their best players more than the Thunder did. Oladipo and Kanter played way more than almost all of Real's best players.

Real played a 17 year old high school senior (Doncic) extended minutes.
Real sat one of their best players (Reyes) for almost the entire game.
Real played their 14th man (Suarez) during key momemnts of the game.
Real left Jaycee Carroll, who was their best player in the game, on the bench for most of the game's important moments.
All of Real's key players (except Llull) played less minutes than Oladipo and Kanter, and played more or less about the same minutes as Westbrook.
Ayon barely even played, as the refs pulled BS on him and ejected him for no reason.

You can LIE LIE LIE all you want to, but the Box Score is factual proof, that Real's best players played even less minutes than the Thunder's did, and Real used their bench even more than the Thunder did.

Box Score:

http://www.nba.com/games/20161003/OKCRMD/#/boxscore

You are a pathological liar.


The fact Barca only lost by 3 points, and actually almost won the game is unbelievable. Much more ridiculous than Real winning the game.

Barca played the game minus 5 rotation players, and WITHOUT ALL 3 OF THEIR POINT GUARDS.

They used their THIRD STRING SHOOTING GUARD (Brad Oleson) as THEIR STARTING POINT GUARD, and a 19 year old kid that they just called up from their farm team as their backup point guard (Stefan Peno).

That Barca team that played against the Thunder could seriously not beat a single team in the entire EuroLeague.

That Barca - Thunder game is probably the single most disgraceful result any NBA team has ever had in history playing against a foreign team. That same Barca team barely even freaking beat one of the worst teams in the Spanish ACB League just a day earlier.

They played with freaking Brad Oleson and Stefan Peno as their main point guards............

Anyone that has ever watched EuroLeague knows the Thunder should have won that game by 40 points. If the Thunder can barely beat such a decimated by injuries team, then they would struggle to ever win any games in EuroLeague.

Barca played without it's two best players and two main point guards,

Tyrese Rice
Petteri Koponen

Barca played without its main two guard,

Pau Ribas

Barca played without its 2nd center,

Shane Lawal

Barca even played without 2nd SF,

Rodions Kurucs

Even in the easy as hell regular season stage (which was too low a level and got removed entirely from the league now) they were .500

I don't think they even qualified to Top 16 until the last game of the regular season, which again was too easy and the EuroLeague completely eliminated it from even existing anymore, as now the season begins at the Top 16.

5-5 in easy regular season (stage contracted from the league now)
7-7 in Top 16 (is now the regular season)
swept in the playoffs 0-3

You are a delusional nut job if you think Real was one of the 8 best teams in EuroLeague last year. They even sucked donkey balls in the first group stage.

[gabepizza]

Real rested their best players more than the Thunder did. Oladipo and Kanter played way more than almost all of Real's best players.

Real played a 17 year old high school senior (Doncic) extended minutes.
Real sat one of their best players (Reyes) for almost the entire game.
Real played their 14th man (Suarez) during key momemnts of the game.
Real left Jaycee Carroll, who was their best player in the game, on the bench for most of the game's important moments.
All of Real's key players (except Llull) played less minutes than Oladipo and Kanter, and played more or less about the same minutes as Westbrook.
Ayon barely even played, as the refs pulled BS on him and ejected him for no reason.

You can LIE LIE LIE all you want to, but the Box Score is factual proof, that Real's best players played even less minutes than the Thunder's did, and Real used their bench even more than the Thunder did.

Box Score:

You are a pathological liar.


The fact Barca only lost by 3 points, and actually almost won the game is unbelievable. Much more ridiculous than Real winning the game.

Barca played the game minus 5 rotation players, and WITHOUT ALL 3 OF THEIR POINT GUARDS.

They used their THIRD STRING SHOOTING GUARD (Brad Oleson) as THEIR STARTING POINT GUARD, and a 19 year old kid that they just called up from their farm team as their backup point guard (Stefan Peno).

That Barca team that played against the Thunder could seriously not beat a single team in the entire EuroLeague.

That Barca - Thunder game is probably the single most disgraceful result any NBA team has ever had in history playing against a foreign team. That same Barca team barely even freaking beat one of the worst teams in the Spanish ACB League just a day earlier.

They played with freaking Brad Oleson and Stefan Peno as their main point guards............

Anyone that has ever watched EuroLeague knows the Thunder should have won that game by 40 points. If the Thunder can barely beat such a decimated by injuries team, then they would struggle to ever win any games in EuroLeague.

Barca played without it's two best players and two main point guards,

Tyrese Rice
Petteri Koponen

Barca played without its main two guard,

Pau Ribas

Barca played without its 2nd center,

Shane Lawal

Barca even played without 2nd SF,

Rodions Kurucs

That Barca team couldn't even beat the very worst team in EuroLeague.

I'm not reading all that crap you posted. The facts are that the Thunder did not play Westbrook the whole 4th (and overtime) for both games. So the Thunder back-up were 1-1 against Euroleague teams in Europe. And you only use the exhibition games the rare cases when Euroleague teams win. We all know the NBA teams win 75% of the time. How about last year when the Celtics went into to Madrid when Real Madrid were the defending champions and beat them by 15 points or when Fenerbahce went into OKC and lost by 30 points. The few games that Eurloeague teams win against NBA teams are close, overtime games while NBA teams blow Euroleague teams out of the building half the time.

Real Madrid's record last year in EuroLeague was 12-15. On no planet is that one of the top 8 performing teams in EuroLeague.

You don't have to Google shit, it's right on the EuroLeague's official website:

Again I'm not reading all the crap you posted. The facts are that Real Madrid (and Barca) both made the Euroleague playoffs last year which only the top 8 Euroleague team make.

And they are two years away from being the Euroleague champions.

The fact is that you are a Donald Trump type of personality, xenophobe, nationalist, pathological liar, propagandist, and IQ level.
