don't think it's broadcasted in the US..we tend to not give a about euroleague
Most intense basketball tournament in the world.
First game of the semi-finals, Barcelona - CSKA, going on. Followed by Olympiacos vs. Partizan Belgrade.
Pretty sure this is being broacasted for the US, don't know on which channel.

It would look that way to someone who cheers for an eastern conference team.
Damn, the pro-NBA versions of KBP are no less pathetic than him.
I don't agree often with Ian Thomsen but he has a point here:
• The Final Four. As much as NBA fans are looking ahead to a potential Finals showdown between the Lakers and the Cavaliers, so are fans abroad anticipating an Olympiakos-Barcelona final. The big difference is that the Final Four is a one-and-done event, which provides semifinal underdogs CSKA Moscow and Partizan Belgrade a strong opportunity to knock off Barcelona and Olympiakos, respectively.
I've said this before: The Euroleague Final Four is the world's best basketball event. It combines the best of March Madness with a more fanatical fan base and a higher level of talent than the NCAA can imagine. The NBA Finals surely operate at a higher level of talent, but they fall short of the passion and unpredictability created by Europe's Final Four.

I pretty much agree with this, except that I don't think the EL F4 is the "best" event - the gap in talent for the NBA playoffs is big. But more intense and exciting, it is.

Back to more interesting things: have you committed suicide yet, KBP? Seriously worried on how you're deal Barcelona in the Final with Rubio the best player on the floor for them... this guy looks a lot better than the 25th best PG in Europe or wherever you have him.
Partizan-Olympiacos tied at the end of the 3rd.
European women are da bomb. I wish i was still alive, so i could merry some of them.
LMAO Childress was blocked by the rim.![]()
Childress getting blocked by the rim on a reverse dunk.
Dang, Bo McCalebb looking pretty good...
McCalebb!!!!!!!!!!
5 seconds to go, Partizan up by 2! This game is way better than CSKA-Barca.
Wow nice play by Childress. Tie, 2sec to go.
Childress takes the airball and dunks it with two seconds!
The Greeks sure do throw funny alley-oops.
Overtime. Damn, I really hope Partizan wins it.
Crap, Kecman fouled out.
My god, Vranes is completely useless in there.
7'6'' center in the game and he doesn't play defense and doesn't rebound. Damn it.
Olympiacos wins 83-80. Bummer.
Amazing game. Oly's depth win this game for them, Partizan was too exhausted in the end. Vranes allowing Bourousis to get those 3 consecutive ORs was pathetic. Plus, Rasic's horrific shooting night prevented them from winning the game earlier and easier. Papaloukas and Childress were decisive for Olympiacos.
Still, what a fight Partizan put. They're one of the toughest basketball teams I've ever seen.
Vesely + McCalebb have a bright future in the NBA (Vesely's future being quite a bit brighter).
Hmm, it woudln't surprise me if KBP claims that Teodosic's airball was indeed an alley-oop pass.
McCalebb is a NBA quality player. Him and Rubio are the best point-guards in Europe this season.
