so I just watched some of the Olympiacos vs Maccabi Euroleague game on NBATV ...

[BRHornet45]

and that shit reminded me of a high school basketball game. maybe 800 people in the crowd, cheap / banged up looking court, piss poor announcing, and just "average" to below average talent on the floor, etc. no shame in guys like Josh Childress playing over there for the paycheck, but damn that atmosphere has to get old fast compared to playing in the NBA. I even hear that the players have to have roommates in cheap ass dorms LOL.

[Indazone]

where's the game link for the replay?

So the 800 people that show up will have plenty of seating choices. Well done.

He was talk shit. Game have attendance of 9,500. Like almost all NBA American fan he exaggerate as much as possible to make NBA seem so much better.

Official attendance of this game was 9,500 I can prove it. And in Greece sports the rule by Greek sports federation is only attendance that can be count is for people that go into arena so that mean at least 9,500 people was there.

son of course I was being sarcastic about the attendance. however, it is not far from the truth. out of ALL of the teams in the greek league, only ONE has a legit size arena that will hold over 18,000... 9 of those 14 teams play in arenas (aka gyms) that only have capacities of 1,000-4,000. look playa, I'm not trying to rain on your parade. I wish the best for your league .... but don't try and act as if it is equal to the NBA. in case your interested in seeing the seating capacity for the greek league, check below.

This is wrong numbers of course probably some American moron put them.

This is right numbers

AEK 2,200

AEL 4,000

Aris 5,200

Egaleo 1,200

Kavala-Panorama 1,700

Colossus 1,242

Maroussi 1,350

Olympia 4,000

Olympiacos 14,776

PAO over 20,000

Panellinios 1,100

Panionios 15,000

PAOK 8,650

Trikala 2,000


PAO arena is no 18,700 like this say. Have been several game with more then 20,000 fans there. And what you mean "legit"? Panionios arena is consider one of best in all Europe and is consider equal to level of new NBA arenas.

Olympiacos have arena that have not been upgrade since 2004 so this is why they are build new one. And actually it can have 16,000 fans because it have that many last year in game. Is just how it is design is weird so fans is VERY far from court but it will be 16,000 for big game in finals against PAO. And Aris is also build new arena 15,700 with all modern feature. Is nothing wrong with arenas in A1.

LOL at you tweaking the numbers to make them look a little better .... as you can see, the PAO is the ONLY legit NBA size arena. That arena can hold over 18,700 which is comparable to any NBA teams arena. ... the rest are only 1,000-4,000 seat capacity high school like gyms with two others that can hold a half ass decent crowd at 14,000+ and 15,000. so just like I said above which you seem to have trouble understanding .... the PAO is the only legit NBA size and quality arena.

PAO holds over 20,000. 18,700 is BS. There have been several games with over 20,000 fans there this is fact.

Panionios arena is nothing as you claim. It is much better then most NBA arenas. What you say not even make sense because it is much better then PAO arena is really. 15,000 and it have the luxury boxes all the way around whole arena add to this. And it is equal to new NBA arenas in features. And so you ignore that Olympiacos and Aris are build new arenas then? Not help your argument so just ignore this right?

Oh and PAO is also building new arena 20,000 with NBA level for arenas. Maroussi and AEK will then share current PAO arena. So you are exaggerate problem of arenas in A1.

[Kobayagi]

Someone please lock this thread before he starts posting those humongous arena pics again.

oh wow .... 15,000 seating capacity with luxury boxes ALL THE WAY AROUND!!!???? well damn son you guys will be competing with the Detroit Pistons attendance numbers soon then!!!! LOL .... son every NBA arena has luxury suites all the way around the arena .... oh and I should also add that even the smallest NBA arena (Orlando) holds over 17,000. An arena with only 15,000 capacity wouldn't even be allowed in the NBA.

You are fool. Panionios arena is much better then most NBA arenas. You need at least talk fact here. It was built for 2004 Olympics. Consider state of art for even NBA standards.

AEK and Maroussi will play in PAO arena as soon as new PAO arena is ready. Panellinios will play in Olympiacos arena as soon as new Olympiacos arena is ready. All these other clubs will then obvious be play in big arenas. This talk about Greek arenas is just more American crap.

Geez, what is up with these threads? I get it already. KB likes Greek and Euroball. The board dogpiles on KB for his anti-amerikan statements and Greek homerism. Fairly predictable. I'd only get excited if Vspan actually announced he's ready to try the NBA again. Other than that, meah. I like the every now and then reports on Childress and Jennings with sprinkles of Kobe defecting every now and then. :lol
