College games have awesome atmospheres.


Any NFL team would kill any college team.

That’s because they actually care about their teams and aren’t fans of players like here.

NBA needs crappy rap music to dry and get fans just to get off their butts.

not the point. i'm saying the euroleague product is better than the nba. from the crowd atmosphere to the rules and physicality.

of course the nba teams are much better. but it would be awesome if nba could make their league more physical and maybe change the game day atmosphere. tired of having a dude on the loud speaker saying "make some noise" or chanting "defense"

The more money involved in a sport, the more corporate it becomes. I think that's true across all sports.

You really can tell how a guy like Hitler could pull it off after watching those.

I get it.... It's fun. But I don't know about probably drunk fans with flares inside a building

I remember that video from about 10-12 years ago. When I saw the thread that's the exact same clip that came to my mind.


ETA: The first clip in that first link is the one I'm talking about. With all the red fire shite.

I remember when that reporter asked Nikola Jokic how he dealt with the Miami fans booing him. His response was “I played in Serbia brother.”

I think calling it european is a bit over generalizing. It was mainly greek and turkey teams.

It could be that way but Americans would turn the chant into STTDB or something equally trashy and then the arena would stop doing it.

I'm not saying they don't have some good atmospheres as they definitely do. But on average its still not that great. You can't show one video of one game and say that they are all awesome.

I've seen plenty of Euro league games basketball and soccer that were half filled boring stadiums

I went to a FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid basketball game in Barcelona once.

Can confirm. It was awesome.

If Euros toned the atmosphere down just a bit people with money might come to the games… they’re not gonna go when they fear for their safety, and they pay the bills for everyone else
