Euroleague Final Four: Real player blog entry #2

Now we have arrived in Madrid as you may have seen already. Of course, we always fly by our own private jet together with our lovely cheerleaders, who are not so lovely at all, as a US-born sportswriter figured out.

Euroleague Final Four: My first time – Athens 2007

Thanks to FIBA.com, I was able to attend the Euroleague Final Four 2007 in Athens. Actually, this was probably the start for my “Euroleague career.” Four months later, I got in touch with Christophe and Julien to start BallinEurope, and now working on the website is almost like a normal job. I guess I was lucky […]

Euroleague Final Four: Yarone Arbel on Maccabi's experience

Making it to the Final Four made Coach Zvi Sherf untouched in a way. His team has already collected seven losses in the Israeli league (eight including the shocking cup finals loss), but his status is stable. He is making some decisions that most people can’t easily digest, like benching Vujcic and Sharp for 40 minutes, […]

An American education: Six must-see basketball movies

America’s primary cultural export has always been the Hollywood movie. Shortly after early cinema captured the public’s imagination, American movie studios captured motion pictures. Hollywood in turn captured the American moviemaking industry. And then the world. Over the course of the post-Lumiere century-plus, Hollywood has made itself ubiquitous in all corners of the globe. At […]

Euroleague Final Four: The real player blog

You may already have passed through the different Final Four Player blogs online on the Euroleague official website. I’m not the biggest fan of these literary pieces which sound more like the team’s PR officers imagining themselves as professional sportsmen instead of being written by the players themselves. That’s why I had the idea to […]

Euroleague Final Four: How to place your bets

I am sure you would like to know where to place your money for the Euroleague Final Four. Should you go with CSKA to be on the safe side or do you want to take the risk by going with Siena? By the way, is it a risk to go with Siena, who is playing […]

Euroleague Final Four: Maccabi Tel Aviv's momentum and the fan factor

Since the end of the Top 16, Maccabi isn’t playing the basketball that earned them first place in the group. Against AXA, it was already a little less intense Maccabi, but still it was enough. The real difference was seen, of all places, in the Israeli league, where Maccabi normally cruises to the title. Last night, the yellows traveled […]

Euro Day in the NBA

Today, the NBA announced its unofficial Euro Day. Honoring a European player for the Most Improved player award was somehow predictable, but the announcement of a Filipino-Dutch-Irish-American head coach for the Miami Heat was more like the magician pulling a rabbit out of his hat.

Euroleague Final Four: Top 10 EL.TV bloopers

Everybody knows about the NBA Bloopers Top 10s. While I’m waiting for the Euroleague Bloopers of the season, I collected the Euroleague TV commentator Top 10. And this comes pretty close to the NBA blooper series.

Euroleague Final Four: Maccabi Tel Aviv's history lesson

Once again thanks to Yarone Arbel for this great series of articles about “his” team Maccabi Tel Aviv. History-wise … Maccabi couldn’t hope for a better opponent in the semi-finals than Montepaschi. In eight encounters so far, all in recent years, Maccabi has beat the Italian bank eight times. In fact, most of these games have […]

BallinEurope has an editor

Since we want to entertain and inform readers from all over the world, we want to present them perfectly written English articles. Unfortunately none of us is a native English speaker, so we have been looking around for people who want to work with us to make sure we don’t put our European notes in […]

Euroleague Final Four: My 1st time

Before flying to Madrid this week, I was thinking of the last Final Four I went to. Well, I was quite surprised that I have not been to a Euroleague Final Four for a long time. In fact, my one and only time was in Barcelona in 1998.
