Dirk Nowitski 8

Touring bullets: Notes, links, videos on Euroleague American and NBA Live tours

Who cares if the games are meaningless in any real sense? BallinEurope missed the Euroleague American Tour and NBA Live Tour games tremendously in 2011 – one item doubtlessly on BiE’s list of underrated casualties of the player lockout – and is thrilled to see them back. In just a couple of hours, the Boston […]

What’s missing from FIBA’s World Championship ad campaign?

So the Euroleague season is over and, though domestic league action is still with us for a couple months longer (BallinEurope’s “European Champions” feature is coming soon), something of that international competition spirit is missing for the nonce – at least until the FIBA World Championships in August and September! And so the high-profile FIBA […]

Are the Harlem Globetrotters still relevant?

Budapest last night played host to the Harlem Globetrotters, and BallinEurope was among the approximately 4,000 in attendance.

Dirk Nowitzki may have to return that 20,000-NBA point marker he earned a couple of weeks ago if current European/American exchange basket rates are factored in. Apparently, calculations by German basket economist Dr. Benedikt Acton have shown that a US basket is only worth 1.126 points on The Continent, thereby making Nowitzki’s 20,000 NBA points […]

The European Player of the Year nominees are…

The nominees are in over at FIBA Europe and, with the exception of one (or two, thanks to Rubiomania) categories, voting could be pretty tight in the FIBA Europe Player of the Year 2009. Yes, Pau Gasol and Ricky Rubio are on the list in a threat to become repeat winners in the Male POY […]

Best of the (basketball) net: NBA Overshadows Almost All Edition

A serious grab bag of entries from around the blogosphere this week, though in light of international tours, David Stern’s vague non-proclamations, and the imminent tipoff to the season, all things basketball were a bit overshadowed by the NBA beast. Except, perhaps, for one very nice mini-documentary on Lithuanian ball… Happy surfing, everyone!

Dream Team Europe: The all-time European basketball team

Involved in yet another chat with yet another basketball enthusiast yet one more time about the all-time greatest basketball team, i quickly realized that any discussion of the topic never extends beyond the borders of the United States of America.
