The Death Of Real Basketball - Euroleague Changing To NBA Rules

[QUOTE=kentatm]:roll:

Yea, and American kids dream of MLS soccer careers over Premier League.[/QUOTE]

Yeah douche bag America, Euroleague = MLS

:lol :oldlol: :roll: :facepalm :rolleyes: :no:

[QUOTE=fpliii]is this for just Euroleague, or will all other competitions (FIBA Zonal tournaments, individual national leagues) all be changing?[/QUOTE]

Just Euroleague. FIBA has no say in the Euroleague's rules. Although most of the European national leagues will probably follow what the Euroleague does. But each national league has its own idea of how to ref the games.

good news at least now they can be a farm system like a minor league. now they cant hide guys who cant guard a lick like spanoulis and navarro.

From France and I'd be on suicide watch if I was stuck with Euroleague basketball.

Right, because Spanoulis is better on defense than almost every point guard in the NBA.

So that sure makes sense............

Pretty much

Truth hurts I know.

[QUOTE=BrickingStar]From France and I'd be on suicide watch if I was stuck with Euroleague basketball.[/QUOTE]

The fact that French teams are almost every year the worst teams in Euroleague might have something to do with that. The French League sucks.

[QUOTE=Euroleague][B]Most kids in Europe do want to play in Euroleague[/B] and don't give much of a damn about the NBA.

The NBA is barely even ever on TV in Europe.[/QUOTE]
Insofar as basketball is followed in Europe, and there are different sports over here with "soccer" (football) being the largest, NBA is clearly recognised as the the big league.

In Britain (admittedly an English speaking state) people don't care about the national leagues or the Euroleague they care about the NBA, and Slam is available in reasonable sized newsagents.

[QUOTE=kentatm]Pretty much

So Euroleague is the 30th best basketball league in the world?

:facepalm :facepalm :facepalm

GTFO

Who cares. They could disband tomorrow and i would not care.

In Britain people don't even know what a basketball looks like. You are an idiot.

News flash mate, the opinions of Brits does not equal Europe's opinion.

You are obviously smoking crack.

Where do you rank it?

Yeah that is the reason Spanoulis can not get playing time over fringe defenders like Skip and Luther Head.

Totally false. You have no clue, and no credibility. End yourself.

That's how you know which one is the superior league! :applause:

[QUOTE=Euroleague]No genius, the NBA is changing their rule on that to match the Euroleague.

Of course you would not get your facts right.[/QUOTE]
Source?

Here's Rubio talking about playing in the different rules. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rp2QBmFmwAM[/url]

[QUOTE=ukballer]Totally false. You have no clue, and no credibility. End yourself.[/QUOTE]

People in the UK don't even know what basketball is. STFU

[QUOTE=jstern]Here's Rubio talking about playing in the different rules. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rp2QBmFmwAM[/url][/QUOTE]

Exactly the NBA is an easier league, just as he confirms himself.

Is this dude serious?

Hey man, I don't know anything about this except for what I read in the link I posted earlier.

Sounds like they're going to ease up a little traveling rules for one.

What are you playing next year?

Yes, fortunatelly. Thanks :rockon:

[QUOTE=Euroleague]Naismith was Canadian, you tool.

And FIBA existed before the NBA was even created, dumb ass.[/QUOTE]

He invented the game while teaching in America and eventually got American citizenship

[QUOTE]Among the proposals were several intended to give players more freedom of movement, such as widening the court itself [/QUOTE]

heaven forbid they play on a mans ourt........

[QUOTE=eliteballer]He invented the game while teaching in America and eventually got American citizenship[/QUOTE]

And he was Canadian. So "we (Americans) invented the game" is a lie.

Just like he lied when he claimed that NBA rules existed before FIBA did.

[QUOTE=eliteballer]heaven forbid they play on a mans ourt........[/QUOTE]

Yeah, they have to make it easy to score, just like the NBA. Heaven forbid that guys with no skills actually get exposed.

Great move for the Euroleague. Now as those players develop, it'll be easier to see how their game will be when they eventually get promoted to where they all really wanna be: the NBA.

This but I just don't see anywhere near good enough talent to surpass their GOAT.

Hopefully this means the death of Euroleague, the poster.

:facepalm :facepalm :facepalm

GTFO[/QUOTE]

:no:
So MLS is the 30th best league. GTFO litterally. This is an NBA forum!!!

then why do they say, Current Euroleague is HARDER and MORE PHYSICAL than current, garbage, diluted, 3 pointers jocking NBA League?

Didnt Luka and Jokic said, winning Euro games are much harder recently.

I forgot about OP. Dude had an obsession with a particular European player and would make fake statements on how he was about to sign to an NBA team.
