Nice time to be a Greek Euroleage fun👀
Partizan has a completely new team and all of the old problems
Podcast without Urbonas is souvlaki without tzatziki…
this year are the perfect circumstances for a greek final. Hope we see that it would be epic
PAO Spor is gonna be great this year!
I like you guys but you favorite partizan way more then Zvezda . Partizan has 3rd best coach ( Ivkovic and Pesic) . 60 milion budget and still losing 😢
Kaimas 🙈🙈🙈
Also ataman, zeljko, bartzokas … are fucking cunts. You have gentlemen like Spheropulos, Itudis, Laso… really respectfull coaches
as a partizan fan,how the fuck is mario hezonia at 11?,with KP hayes davies,solukas and chima behind him?also,mathias lessort is no.2 or no.1,kendrick nunn tavares and facu are overratted as fuck.
This season is going to be huge 💪

You guys recently put out a video detailing some potential concerns facing the Euroleague and its future. One of the main points was about the aging of the Euroleague rosters and how NIL money in America will continue to effect that. You articulated well also how win now focused every team is in the Euroleague is and how that contributes to things.
I want to make an observation and hope you don't take too much offense because I love your guys content. Do you believe the way you talk (or don't talk) about teams like ALBA Berlin helps or hurts with the above point you previously made? You're fairly dismissive/disrespectful to them. We all know they aren't good. You don't have to scoff about it every time you discuss their play. Why not analyze the play of some young players? Have you ever listened to how podcasters cover NBA teams when they are going through a rebuild phase? The best way I can say it is they discuss them like they're grading on a curve. Maybe don't be so harsh?
Ataman clearly trusts Nunn by giving him significant minutes, likely to build his confidence and comfort level for those crucial games where tactical precision may take a backseat.
Barça is very bad this season, they need signings, if not then maybe out of playoffs. Brazdeikis: good for zalgiis level
You know you ll never see Rytis when PAO wins hes a football broadcaster those days😂
Tyrique Jones analysis was spot on. I was thinking exactly the same during the game.
13:45 Papapetrou wasn't available for the match even though he was in the 12 players of the match. He had a small injury at the last training in Berlin before the match.
I think guys that you forgot to mention that everyone this year even Alba Berlin wants to win the best..the last season champion!!! Everyone is competitive with Panathinaikos this year and want his head!! That's why Alba was so good!!☘️☘️☘️☘️Panathinaikos was playing just for warm up because he knows that the important games and the team gonna be ready after January!!☘️☘️GO PAO
I am just starting to watch the Euroleague. Can you guys make a video on witch team should you support?
I watched game Baskonia Partizan cause i was curious for both teams.Partizan could & should have ended the
game earlier.This was a big alert for Partizan and wizard Obradovic
As for Mirotic guys,man who plays not for titles but for money and his numbers is the reason i see him as no elite player
I mean nothing against Alba, but if "don't look hopeless" is what they are going for, then maybe the Euroleague is not for them.
And it's not this year alone. Ever since they came back in 2020, they've always looked hopeless.
I am pretty sure there are way better candidates out there.
Same goes for ASVEL too. They should really prove themselves in this league this year.
The only reason they're there, instead of let's say Hapoel Tel Aviv, Valencia…or a Balkan team for example, is the fact that they are bigger markets.
Berlin and Lyon are big cities. France and Germany are big markets. Big populations. Big economies.
rooting for Olympiakos from Birmingham,UK❤❤
Please Greek subtitles. many people watching your video English
Shengelia in 10 th place, mirotic should be 11.
Labai jau siauro komandų rato podcastas tampate … be graikų, turkų ir serbų apie kitus nelabai kalbate
Making a podcast with 3 games that still need to be played and talking about only 4 teams that you always talk about
D Riding Pao,Partizan,Zalgiris,Fener
