Hopefully , we are slowly transitioning to a globalisation of the sport. Europeans becoming more athletic, US focuses a bit more on defence and tactics. ACB is by far the best european domestic league, saying that as a Greek. We got 2 european powerhouses, but other than that the league is sadly poor. At least, there's a coaching tradition.

Best season i have ever watched for sure

the twenty twenty twenty twenty one one is unheard of

Crazy that this video came up on my screen. I was just telling a friend how I'm going to try to follow the Euro League next year. As an American, it's tough to follow. I also know so very little about it. I don't even know what the teams are. A few weeks ago I looked, but forgot their names except for Real Madrid. Then just today I recalled Athens and then the Partizan fan video. I got into it cuz somehow I saw a clip of their playoffs. A team (forget which) won 3-2, but the fans were nuts. That's what reeled me in. I like how the semi's and finals are 1 game each. I like how (I think) the bottom 2 teams get booted from the league. I still haven't figured out exactly where the 2 new teams will come from. I read an article today that one of the teams (forget which) might not accept the invite cuz they'd have to raise their ticket prices 70% to join. I also like how teams get to play defense. I quit watching the NBA over 20 years ago. It's sissy basketball. Other than Lebron James, I wouldn't recognize one NBA player if I saw their picture. I know some of the names of the better known players, but have no clue as to what they look like. Kevin Durant. Steven Marbary. I just don't follow the NBA cuz it's not interesting. Back to the Euro League- I saw they were in the final 4 about a week before they were to be played, but I couldn't figure out how to watch the games. Life went on, and I forgot about em. Then just today I was trying to find out who won it all. The official Euro League website is tough to follow. Here's the one I go to. I actually have this pinned on my comp. I went to it a few hours ago and I couldn't find anything I was looking for. www.eurohoops.net/en/euroleague/ I went to the Flashscore website and that one seems easier to follow. That's just mostly standings and results though. That's better than the official site, but doesn't really tell me anything about the teams, players, etc. I'm serious when I say it looks like a lot of fun. The fans are nuts. I love the atmosphere. I haven't even picked out a team yet. I was leaning towards the one of the ones in Greece. Not Athens, but the other one with the long name. I looked that city up on a map awhile back when I saw that first clip that introduced me to the league. West side of the country if I recall it right. Such a cool city with all the ports and such. So they might be it. Also thinking of Partizan- I just saw their fan video a few minutes ago and that place is nuts. I won't go with Real Madrid. I know that name from soccer (or football as most of the world calls it). Plus they just won it all. Congratulations to them. I just wanna root for someone who's not on top at the moment. I want a team that not many in the US are going to know much about. Like one that I can show my friends and go "wow, look at these fans" or show em pictures of the city and go "wow, look at how beautiful this place is." If someone actually reads this and can recommend a site so I can start following what's going on in the Euro League, I'd appreciate it. I'm interested in where the teams who finished in the bottom 2 end up. I have no idea of what that league is.

That Yule shot fking hurt

Yabusele's actions were not punished enough

I'd say this season was really entertaining but that fight between Partizan and Real Madrid players left a bitter taste since I feel like Partizan was punished more severe than Real. Deck provoked the fight and started it first, plus Real players were commiting 3 consecutive unsportsmanlike fouls before it escalated. I feel like they knew what they were doing and without it, that would be an easy sweep for Partizan in the 3rd game.

@@MaTiX961 Remember Deck's foul on Exum or Poirier's 5th foul on the half court when he sent Punter 5m back? Deck was winking to his teammates if you look closely after it. His body language said "I've got this, I know what I am doing." At least it felt from my perspective. Punter's reaction was saying "I won't get picked on" and all he has done was flexing his biceps in front of Llull. In my opinion that was a humane reaction after all the BS that started happening consistently.

Guys i have a feeling that if the euroleague signs 2 or 3 nba superstars in their prime in any of the teams i think euroleague will be the one to watch

It was beautiful and it will be next season

Euroleague basketball is always more entertaining in my opinion. Stakes are so high and they still play the game properly over there. I'll be paying much closer attention to it next season!

Wauw those fans! I want to be there!

I didnt expect to hear "i ko ne skače, taj je cigan" in this video xD 03:10 Translation "And whos not jumping, hes a gipsy" (Gipsy being a name for Crvena Zvezda fan)

I agree with you, for a long time Euroleague fan, this year I was excited for majority of the regular season, then very excited for the playoffs (even Zalgiris v Barcelona really) and Final 4 perhaps not so much. Would have preferred Partizan obviously, but I guess the game winner by Llull made it better. Next season I'm hoping for more experiments, maybe it's time for a play-in tournament that the NBA implemented? I enjoy the every game matters mentality, but make it so that it's more fair and get rid of the Final 4.

That's some nice thoughts! We have a video on those last few points coming up 😉

when there will be competitive parity, i.e. no more teams that, due to the different laws of their countries, can afford millions of debts and make pharaonic acquisition campaigns, teams that enjoy state aid and teams with solid ownership that cannot go beyond a certain budget because of the FFP, it will be even more beautiful.

This season makes me remember words from Obradović(forgot the full quote but it is from video of Obradović giving a lecture to future basketball coaches, you can find it on KZread):"Europe exists solely for purpose to find and make good players and then they go to play in NBA"... Something like that... He wasn't trying to diminish Euroleague nor NBA just was saying how sad state of issue is when it comes to players... Idk if my two favorite teams got what they need to win(Zvezda and Partizan)

Eeej lituanian brothers that 5 game lose hit me a lot and i stop watching all series and forgot to say : tnx a lot for suporting partizan.

for me it was an amazing season with extremely disappointing end

Imo 2019/20 would be best season if it was finished

And even Benetton or Limoges CSP

EL is the hope for basketball as a noble sport. NBA is dead. That is why we have to guard against NBA-influence. So my suggestion is: only allow two US players per team. Great season? Yes. The best? No. The fight and subsequent injustice of Madrid's win puts a dark cloud over the year. And also Llull's fall from grace. But: great sports nonetheless. Let's protect it.

And in the end, one man who cant lose as a man, win a title with a his shoot. Everybody know what happened with real if they dont start dirty fight then. A lot of things happened and justice is not win this year. Shame on you, small club!

For me 2023 Real title is not fairly won. First that staged fight against Partizan second final ge was all but fairly refereed. For me not a real champions shameful and dishonored. But season was overall one of the greatest in history

Well I could argue that there's more NBA level talent in today's EuroLeague. We see more and more Europeans coming back still in their peaks as well as more solid American role players who weren't at that level & quantities back in those days. In general, the level of skill has only been going up, the level of coaching/strategy too & I would say the entertainment aspect of the game is as important as anything else when making the case for the greatest season.
