For most fans euroleague will die the day dubai gets in

it's sad to hear an interview with the Euroleague ceo and figure out he didn't mention basketball a single time, while he said the word "market" 15 times in a row.

Young talents dont get any playing time in EL, so there is the problem if they will play and get paid in ncaa and later come back to El? Yes, domestic clubs lower then EL will have a bit lower quality

Since the entire situation can be summarized as "Euroleague teams are not investing in their youth teams", Euroleague itself needs to establish either rules or a foundation for young players to emerge into the starting rosters. For example, mandate that a minimum of X players under the age of 21 must play a minimum of Y minutes each season. Or create a youth Euroleague championship (like UEFA has its youth league) where all Euroleague teams must play players under the age of 21. There clearly are ways around this, it's up to the people in charge to make the necessary changes to fix this issue.

legit concerns for Euro basketball as you state in the video, but as an American living in Asia and watching Euroleague, NBA, Asia leagues, etc. I feel the systems for development are so much more established in Europe at the moment. The next crop of players might look at NIL in the NCAA as an opportunity, but as been pointed out by people in the US less and less college players from the NCAA are league ready. The system and rule set of the NCAA are far from the NBA or of FIBA which has always been their weakness. Long story short going to the NCAA can give short term monetary gains, but might actually harm young player's overall trajectory if they are elite.

Why 3 French teams and Greece remains at 2 representatives? Who sets these rules?

This is on the EL management. Always afraid to make clear choices and rules. Make it difficult for Ncaa to grab European players as they like. But no!We have a league that simply care about prestige until that abstract concept won't mean shit. I mean we don't even know how much a EL team truly spends! This is the last year I spent money to watch EL games.And I hope people will follow.

I think the NCAA might actually be good for europe. Young talent will leave yes but in average it will grow more than in euroleague exactly because they will have more playing time and either way almost no youngster actually plays at the moment. they will then come back at 23/24 and have played in duke or florida instead of some random third league in turkey

Economy of EU is in big trouble, so I guess this trend will be more and more continuing to grow

Yes it is doomed because the game cannot attract funds the way it is. In euroleague the regulation is too old for the new fan base around the world. In the nba the players are above everything, in Europe we re having a fan base coming from football. 3” on defence in the paint must change and also bigger courts more open spaces. Euroleague must change also the final four competition to a 3 or 4 wins to get the title, the best wins

750K in NIL sounds crazy to me, whos paying that??? Can you do a separate NIL video? It's a bit confusing, to be honest...

This is an easy decision for rising talents like Lamelo or Alex Sarr to hit the NBL because the games actually prepare them for the NBA. Balls can't be knocked off of the rim like in Europe and you don't have to put the ball on the floor before you take a step. It makes sense they would elect to be where the game style is most suitable for where they are heading. ✅

The only reason any player is picking the NBL over a Euroleague team is language or pay. Also, the NIL is indeed a bit threat, but it is also highlights a massive pain point of European development: younglings simply don't get enough time. Teams should play their youth, especially their promising native youth, as much as possible. Especially since they have their national league that they also have to play in. Furthermore, I wish Euroleague would have a rule of playing young players to force teams to invest more resources in them. We can't continue to be short-sighted and only follow short-term gains.

Some teams who do not challenge for the title develop players. Everybody is saying Berlin is a bad club but they developed two local prospects the Warner’s brothers who play at very high level now. Also olympiakos who has win now mentality but also a low budget develops a lot of young players, papanikolaou was developed from young. Panathinaikos last season played a lot of young players when they were losing like kalaitzakis, kostas ante and papagiannis. So it is possible but difficult to win the title with youth

If competition keeps high in the EL it will always be the best NBA prep. Once playoffs come around, EL skills are required.

Comrade. Main problem here is that will NBA and NCAA destroy-degrade quality of european players. Young european players shows it superiority and dominance over college US players during past 10 years. NBA wants to stop that trend. The easiest way for that is to bring the best european talents to the US during their very young age and make of them US mentalllity and US basketball knowledge players. It will bring on top again strainght and athleticism and turn down brain. I am watched a lot of videos where NBA analyst saying that NBA loosing audience, NBA loosing number of views per game, loosing TV share against other sports in US: NFL, Hockey, Soccer,... Their explanation for that is domination of europan palyers in NBA, domination of european style of play against US style, based on athleticism, atractivines, speed,... The most of european players are smarter then US players but they play slow unatractive basketball. NBA wants to use their talent and basketball IQ and make of them US NBA players. Sorry because of awful English.

1:35 But i think to grow more as a player and reach new heights later is better to keep in a pro league. Usa has more to win with this than them.

What about the NBA Europe rumors?

Is hard to find a way to milk the money into other teams that may have space to develop young talent.

Euro basketball will never die bcoz they are simple players not to hype like in US and theres a lot of players in europe D1 and D2. #bounce400

The B-League champ was beaten by 20+ by the Lebanese League champ in the BCL Asia semis.

Bro watch the crack Baby basketball episode from South Park ! They explain why it’s wrong not to pay the players in college…

You are catastrophizing indeed. I mean, sure the best prospects will always choose the NBA and maybe a few more draftable but not quite lottery-worthy players might move to NCAA, but I think that there is plenty of talent remaining in Europe and most importantly, what makes European players great is not just the talent itself, but, also, the high stakes' experience in title contention and that winning mentality which you exclusively feature as a negative. I think we'll be fine.

Euroleague has great basketball and crowds, but it doesn't have the explosive marketing power that American sports do (or European football, for that matter). These days even the WNBA is possibly becoming more popular than the Euroleague, because of the explosive marketing power of Caitlin Clark. I guess that's the advantage of a superstar-focused sports culture - it translates to finacial success, and therefore to more stability and a more certain future.

With Euroleague being a semi closed league, the relevance of each national championship has decreased significally. That's where youth talent has a better place to shine

I think its a little overreactive. The NIL will benefit maybe 10% of the European talent and they would go probably D1 anyway in majority of the cases. G League is trash and mostly Americans will occupy the best paid spots. Australia is not concern, Ball and Sarr were exemption not rule. Level of competition there is so much lower than in Europe as well as the salaries. Japan and China might be different story. They can attract the US talent that is not NBA material through money and exposure. Yet there is still many highly talented players playing around the world or leaving college, that will be attracted by playing in Euroleague. Also there is a lot of talent within the national leagues itself in countries like Spain, Italy, Greece, Germany. Euroleague teams just have to figure out how to more effectively develop talent while maintaining the win now mentality and reliance on experienced players (nothing wrong with that).

Actually its end of nba the last years...

You can only use 2 American player and 1 from European in Swedish basketball. More is against the rules in Swedish basketball

You could maybe lean into the retirement league thing Look at Messi coming to MSL Think of Durant in Europe. Durant is a hooper, i bet he'd come if the table was set properly.

So not true... look what ucla did to Jan Vide!! Xavier with Sasa Ciani.. young players will understand that ncca isnt gr8 for development..

Euro league is the second best pro league in the world, I doubt that will ever change. Yes the best young players will and should be in the nba, but many do not have the athleticism to warrant staying in the us vs over seas and offensive talents like Luka from Europe are very rare. Youth will look for nba but the reality is most will end up in Europe. Euroleague just moves down on the list of options since it’s more opportunities to use to try to make the nba. Give it 3-5 years and most of a draft will be in europe

Clickbait

euroleague can create a u21 league to develop young talents

But we chose this, we created a win-now fairy tale, every year an insane amount of money is lost to win now, and for what? In USA they have long-lasting support traditions, fans attend and watch NCAA NBA games and generate those insane revenues. They worked consistently for it for many years, while our basketball developers did who knows what in meantime..

Is this the end of your programme..? The title text it's so rong (free tip)

For me there's no need for a young European player to go to NCAA playing against other players who've the same age, it's much better for them to play in Europe against older players.

its not about individual talent but let the americans belive what they belive 🤷🏽‍♂️

Barcelona has money, the owner of the club, owns the soccer team, and a field running team, a NBA team. Is only a NBA Team.

If the EU league won't pay, that's its problem, not the players, and not the NBA.

Euroleague needs a sports game like nba2k it would be a decent source of income

Solution. The International Basketall Association

Middle east, bring back Russian clubs and ofc improve marketing

1) Bring CSKA Moscow back. 2) Let dubai money in to Euroleague. 3) Let non-european RİCH countries to host Euroleague Final-Four. 4) Create a alternative of "NBA-G league" for Euroleague.

Let people watch euroleague? It's pay TV everywhere. How you gonna expand fan bases with 0 games shown without pay tv

Euroleague = USA's MLS

LOL. WHATEVER......

F euroleague and its closed system

$$$$$$$ will ruin Euroleague!

nah, the EU will intervene and regulate, I give it 4 to 7 years.

The american players will no longer be stars in their own league...

Euroleague players needs to play in Saudi Arabia for a lot more money hehehe

Just let the Arabs involve

I just dont watch EL anymore.. Maybe a few hot games here and there but thats it.. If it wasnt for 2 greek, 2 turkish and 2 serbian clubs there wouldnt be anything to watch unless it is your own home team playing. If I want quality I will watch NBA and not Madrid for sure. I dont want a cheap replica of the NBA "atmosphere" so I will watch warzone like games and just skip the rest.

Euroleague needs cash? Start selling EL media rights for what it’s worth, not some pocket change that’s so low that raises eyebrows - that’s 50M per year like wtf??

Euroleague is not doomed, but the win now mentality is terrible for a club, as rosters change massively every season and makes it impossible to integrate young talent. Coaches need to work in an environment where they can built for multiple years, just like in soccer.

Nothing to worry. As long as the teams in Europe stays at a comparable level to other European teams, fans will still watch the games. E.g. Serbian and Lithuanian teams are clearly not the best of Europe but they are playing in front of big crowds.

i agree mostly, some 20 years ago every major european team had some nba level players. remember d.wilkins, bob mc adoo, josh childress (no6 draft), roy tarpley etc while also most european talents stayed in europe. only a few like kukoc divac petrovic made a career in the usa. now the level has dropeed significantly (EL teams wait till all NBA contracts are closed and then buy the leftovers, and the thing is that these leftovers are so good compared to EL players that make actually a difference. and if NCAA start to pays then its game over. Also its true that all big names are now over 30. No young players and if one appears once in while the next year goes to the NBA. EL has real problems, due to poor management and lack of interest (only serbs, some greeks, and lithuanians watch). In big europeans countries noone is interested.

EL needs better marketing. Euro has the potential to compete with at least gleage and ncaa in short-mid term. Good marketing brings more broadcasting rights, more businessman buying euro clubs. Marketing for the masses and marketing for B2B could create a virtuous cycle.

You don t understand. It s pro European Basketball. Because... 1) More European will reach Americans-Nba Level. So the Global Pool of NBA Level player will become bigger .So more Nba level players wil play overseas in Europe. It doenst matter the nationality. Maybe Europeam teams have more Americans and American teams have more Europeans..So the gap between Euroleague n Nba will be closer as it goes the last 10 years .. The only problem Euroleague would have is if another League like CBA or somewhere else become more competitive financially and stole players ...That is unlikely and will become more unlikely when dubai become part of Euroleague

Its just student years, how is it end for Europe? They just go leave the family, and most of them will come back. There is no space for everyone in NBA, so they just gonna get better and come back, i dont see any problem with that. And the ageing is it really the problem? Euroleague is still TOP quality basketball, and many veterans who will finish career soon or later, dont worry its not the end.

All these examples of basketball growing globally and increasing opportunities (also) for European players to develop and make career as a player are inevitably increasing the talent pool as long as basketball appears as an appealing option for kids to play and invest their time in. In short term, there might be setbacks in recruitment, but I don't think European basketball can regress as a whole in a time when the player production is this good. The clubs, leagues, associations and less organised basketball communities just have to cherish the culture we have, because the opportunities are still huge and the club culture is still our biggest asset. Pretty much like how South American football is still strong, competitive and culturally unique even if Libertadores has been facing similar stagnation for decades when compared to club competitions of other continents.

it's not like every college basketballer will make this amounts of money, or at all. But whining that the EL will suffer, we put our needs and desires in front of those of the players. Maybe the EL should make better offers to young players instead of letting them rot either on the bench or some backwater club.

why not make euroleague same format as NBA ? I want to see a Berlin Wursts vs Paris Baguettes matchup

Ridiculous video. Every year the European basketball is dying, every year it's the last good year. Enough, can't you see that this was the best season we had in a while? And why did this happen? Because a lot of teams invested and got talent. Euroleague shouldn't be afraid of NCAA or CBA or even NBL. They are competitors and of course, they may narrow the player pool but Euroleague should just retain its prestige and the whole conversation is over. Euroleague MVPs almost every year for the last decade were leaving for the NBA, that's not new. Players do age, but people also come back to Euroleague (Hezonja, Satoransky, Abrines, Mirotic, etc) The "win now" mentality is one of the biggest factors that help European basketball stay at this level, every fucking game matters, hell every play matters. That's the intensity we bring out here, and if that is too much for any player they shouldn't be here, LaMelo Ball for example, wouldn't last a week in a club like Red Star or Zalgiris (and not because of their skill level). Bottom-line, Euroleague's on the right path, and if it needs to do something, is just create a plan to expand locally and increase the budgets of the teams. No NBAzation is required. Stop catastrophizing.

America is destroying Europe in all segments - from sports to economy. We look incompetent. Something must be done to protect the players and for them to see a future in playing basketball in Europe. Allowances to clubs for the departure of young players to America should be astronomical!

Excellent video and thorough analysis! Well done! EL is indeed aging and the win mentality can destroy this championship. For example, my team Panathinaikos 100% succesful this year with EL and Greek title, has "destroyed" his best prospect, Lefteris Mantzoukas, who couldnt find even 5 minutes to play in EL

I appreciate the Euroleague, but now you guys are getting to know what MLS fans in the US are dealing with.🤦🏾‍♂️

I think behind the nba league is lebanese league bc right now it is completly equal and every single game is coming to the wire and they have the best importmants amd the best fams bc almost every game it is a full house.

From my point of view you are posing a legitimate set of argues and scepticism regarding euroleague context and future. But as far as I can see, euroleague will expand in terms of prestige and geography, euroleague is escalating and so does european basket, fusing material from abroad, integrating without losing its identity. In our continent basket preserves its team-effort character, without spoiling any excessive personal talent. Finally, as you already mentioned in your video, in european basketball, as in any other renowned team sport, there is a major x factor; its fan base. Neither in the NBA nor anywhere else such a major factor exists and I believe will never appear. Team sports are its fans, without them the outcome is closer to ceremony rather than actual game. PAO fan!

I think there should be a Global Club Cup in basketball. 64 teams from over 30 countries, March Madness style. Would draw tons of profit and it would be held in one country. Absolute genius to me

I guess EuroLeague will go through it's south american football arc.

European basketball must grow together and not differentiate itself into 4 different competitions. This development is ridiculous. FIBA and Euroleague must settle their dispute and a national championship must once again be linked to the right to start in the highest european Competition. For example, FIBA could link the country points for places in international competitions (World Cup, Olympics, etc.) with the slots in European club basketball. For example: Best European Country in the FIBA World Ranking = 4-5 Slots in the highest European Club Competition. We also need a functioning and healthy financial fair play. Sure, thats probably just stupid ideas. But any idea is better than an expansion to Dubai. ❤️🏀

while i can see top prospects going to ncaa for the money ( lol basketball students gettin paid while the normal us students go into cripling debt just to study) , euro basketball will never die , we have the passion that united states dont have , watched lkl final game , and the other day nba finals the atmosphere is like light and day we have it better . I think the level of overall basketball will improve but nba is not for everyone , and kids after college will eather go to the g league (kuz rarely a top tier tallent stays in ncaa for longer than 2 years) , plan b is euroleague or any other league debending on the offers , plan c they fell off and the money they got from ncaa broke a few screws loose (it is a possibily , remember liangelio ball and china situation , you dont have to be smart to play basketball in collage) While yes developing young players in top euroleague teams is a problem with them not gettin enough playing time and experience , the mid and lower teams could do that and develop they're players nicely , sure they wont stay for long , but the team will get more exposure bringin team some money from endorsments . Overall opion it will impact where young players will go to develop their game , but only strong and detirment will survive , the rest will really have to stay humble and take classes on how to not be stupid with all that money they will be getting. And EuroBall will never die , and top stars that do go to nba wont mean they will be a good fit (too much to name but sasha vezenkov is a recent example) and eventually come back to europe

hm one thing no this can't happen us first of all we have seen thousands of times tons of young insanely skilled european athletes cant succed in america and players in general even if they go to ncaa 75 present of them will be back and have a succesful career in the euroleauge

Excellent content, well done gang!

European basketball holds a major advantage that we "inexplicably" overlook (cause we have come, and some have found it convenient, to believe that there is no alternative), and this neglect is the root of all our problems: an incredible, vast network of teams and leagues that has fueled the sport for years with abundant talent and passionate fans. Clinging to a traditional closed league model spells certain decline, if not outright disaster. We're simply shooting ourselves in the foot (especially in countries like Lithuania, Greece, and the former Yugoslavia, which lack the robust school systems and financial resources of powerhouses like Spain or France)

It could be. FIBA. NIL and NCAA the division splits. Illinois when everyone has distain for Angel Reese and Chicago? That's Rockerfeller all day long.

they will get the bag and go back to europe if they dont get drafted, what afterwards? some of them wont even adapt to pro ball cuz most of them dont have the experience playing with older guys

Euroleague shouldn't try to be like NBA, it should try to be like football's Champions League, if want to success.

There's a couple of things in this video that are not correct. 1. NIL is only for domestic(meaning USA Players). So that means that international College players actually don't make money off of NIL. At least not yet. 2. Players have been getting paid for NIL since 2021, what's at stake in the courts in the US right now is whether or not player can get paid DIRECTLY by the schools. And thats not a done deal either because it still hasn't been approved in the courts. Blessings!

Glad to see that the boy with the striped pajamas doing well 🤗🥲

There is not such thing as win now mentalty who is respoceble for Young Talents.Problem is few RICH clubs in Europe who every year just buy talents from poor clubs and regions of Europe,make rule off 5 Foreign players and to play then with some domestic players.Even in my country Serbia for decades when talent show of,next year he is gone.Euroleague even take Ex Jugoslavia spots in Euroleague and thats how Madrid buy Luka Dončić for free,thay know what thay do...So now is problem for that RICH clubs who developed nothing when talents go to USA,that is GOOD thing for Serbia and few countrys here,no more playing for Spaine,Turkey etc,we need to beg for spot in Euroleague and we contribute the moust to this sport in Europe (50 Euroleague contributors,players,couches,reefs,the biggest number of all nationaltys are Serbians) but at same time NBA Made doocumentary about Belgrade Serbia Basketball citys,thay show us respect,to be honest we in Serbia know that we got Euroleague spots just becose Russian clubs under sunctions...Dream for us,young players play just domestic league and talents go directly to USA to play in couple of years NBA,if not,thay will got education and good job there....Euroleague F you from Serbia

'We won't pay the players more because it's dangerous to handle a 18 year old a lot of money. Trust me it's for your own good' is a hilarious excuse that not even my boss would utter

You are catastrophizing, and a lot :) The problem with NBA is that it is still "closed system". What ever grumps about to many international players in NBA are, the fact is that it is still hard to enter NBA and that it can do only the best of the best, and that even of those that enter only several get the respect they deserve. And it will be even more "closed system", especially at coledge level, where you have traditions, where who and where your parents went to coledge matters more than anything esle, etc. There will be for sure increase in talents going early into USA, but I don't think it will be significant increse at all, because that "big money" would mostly go to home young talents, athletic looking Afroamericans that can be comercialized in market early, while foreigners would not have such generous offers, nothing that Barcelona or Real Madrid could not top up if needed... And there is still that moment where internationals in NBA are not being given minutes, and that will be the big no-no for many to venture there, at least until they win everything in Europe, like Vasilije MIcić, for example, and again, he went to NBA with guaranted minutes to play, and they tricked him, so if he was not transphered from Thunder to Hornets, he would return to Europe to play for several millions less, but to play. Same treatment, if not even worse, will be on coledge level, where it is not important to put the best talent on the court, but the most sounding name, so the fun base can have recognizible reason to cheer and buy tickets... And for Aisan and Oceanian leagues, I will ask you just one question: Do you remember who Miroslav Raduljica is? We called him once upon a time The Gods Hand. Then he went to China league in 2017. Do you know where is he now? At Maroussi -- google it... Once NBA player and Euroleague legend called The Gods Hand, and in that time one of my favourite players, literary diminished as player playing with small Chineses in no quallity leaugue... Now ending in no name Greek team... He went to China for bigger money, and ended palying for no money. Today no seriouse player would allow himself that path, at least not in it's prime, because if you want to stay among the best, you must play among the best, so players are today aware that Asian leagues are one-way thickets, and that there is no easy, if any, return back to premier leagues once it is done... So it is good retirement plan, but total catastrophy for young talentet players that just started to seek development and affirmation... That prospect will not draw many talents, if any at all, at best it will maybe pull some scrambles that couldn't find their place in leagues that matters. So, the future is not that bleak, and you touched one very important reason why NBA can pay their players millions: it is not because there are best players in the world, but because they have much much higher ravenue return on the market. Bigger ravenue, more money for player's contracts. WNBA has that problem, they want the same payment as in NBA, but there is simply no ravenue return for such contracts. So Euroleague needs to find a way to increse their ravenue on the market if they want to parry NBA, it is simple formula, but still not the formula for talents, just for player sallaries and eventual atraction of established players. Take for example Serbian or Lithuanian national basketball leagues -- they play for peanuts (and not today but for last 30-40 years) in comparison to Spain ABC (not even trying to compare it to NBA money...), but still have steady production of great quallity players through the year, and even the greatest world players. Jokić didn't went to american coledge, nor did Sabonis... Nor did Aleksa Avramović, developed as player in small Serbian town Čačak where they pay their players in products, because they literary don't have any money (I am caricaturizing a little, but KK Čačak 94 literary survives from year to year only thanks to volunteering efforts of variouse people), and then he came out of nowhere and made a fool of SGA that this year was top 3 candidates for MVP in the richest league n Earth... And would amerrican unicersity and coledge scouts dig up Aleksa Acramaović in his teen years in Čačak 94? Dream on, they literary don't know who is he even now, when he is fully developed player (but I have feeling they will learn first game on Olympics, the harder way :)

This is a double edge sword tbh. Young prospects could seek better development programs at NCAA and this would funnel Euroleague too, not only NBA (I doubt that anyone with no NBA future would pick G league over Europe). This mean that we are going to loose some young stars because of the easier process to be picked by NBA teams, but still this doesn't mean that Europe will left with no talented players, just more hidden or underrated talents. Just for the records there is a plethora of Greek players that started or drafted at NBA with limited or no minutes and thrive here, (Koufos, Fotsis, Kalathis, Papagiannis, Regias, Tsakalidis, Spanoulis, Printezis, and the list goes on with OG great like Galis, Fasoulas and Giannakis).

I think euro league needs to keep selling the quality of the actual basketball. I like the nba but I’m so tired of all the stoppages, ad breaks, the 2.5 hour endurance event to watch an nba game that should take no longer than 60 mins, homogeneous strategies, over reliance on ISO plays, boring strategies employed by coaches that just end up with a crazy athletic play or a moving screen with 5 travels into a drive and kick for a 3pt play. Euroleague seems to correct almost all of these flaws in the nba, as well as having genuine fans who create atmosphere, not the DJ at the arena. I’m very keen to get into the Euroleague but kinda don’t know where to start and this video kinda discouraged me if the league is looking like it’s gonna take a huge hit and if all my fav players in the eventual team I choose to support will leave to go to college/nba. I think there is a growing discontent with the hysteria in nba media, the homogeneity in the league and their strategies and the pain of actually watching an nba game. I always look forward to the Olympics because the game is so much more beautiful but the competition is so lopsided. I just wish we could have great competition with international/euroleague rules and atmosphere 🙏 and I think I’m not alone in this desire

If there aren’t players younger than 25, then what’s the complaining about young players going away. Only few of those in NCAA will pass the draft stage. The rest can eventually be hired in euroligue, and if they push good money to entice the players, euro teams could have many of these players before 25 years old.

No it’s not the end of the every team in Europe is not playing in euro League, it’s every country has their own league, like Sweden has their own league , with no teams in euro L, it’s typically Basketball channels on RU-vid they don’t know the basic shit about teams that are not playing in Euro L, they don’t know . The easy one, what is The iceman son name? Or what club Magic played in before he did comeback to the lakers in NBA.

Bs , everyone understand that playing against big man is way important than playing against boys,moreover ,when you playing in Turkey or Greece - it's improve youre psychology on another level ,because of fan pressure at every away arena. Every smart player understand that.

One MAJOR flaw with your video, international players do not qualify for NIL……

European Basketball is more than EuroLeague

5:12 Las Vegas 100% confirmed, Mexico City fight a spot to be a part o NBA

It's so over

Simple solution : Give the players more money..

Euroleague doesnt pay enough its that simple

Competition breeds inovation. Its going to be fine.

Euroleague is very good right now tbh

eh, NBA just bought global basketball

18 is nba lowest age you can play , Europe 16.
