The elephant in the room which is probably the most important factor for higher scoring in the NBA is that the NBA game is 8 minutes longer! That's almost a whole Euroleague extra quarter!
Still, the other points are much more important for personal scoring records
the pace of the game is different too, its not as fast as it is in the NBA where most teams jack up the shot very early on. I think euro league kind of basketball is very balanced and precise. I wonder why don't they just make it like NBA 12 minutes 4 quarters?
@@jmgonzales7701 you mean why dont they make nba like fiba.
@@georges6957 no
@@jmgonzales7701 why? Because americans do everything right?
50 pts is amazing in any pro league, rec league, Saturday morning pick up
In NBA of 80s yes, in today NBA 50 is like the old 35 point
Well the last 10 points were nba alike
Because the court is smaller, no 3 second violation, and you're allowed to knock the ball off the cylinder
you're also leaving out probably the biggest part. An NBA game is 8 minutes longer. That's almost a whole Euroleague quarter
the pace of the game is different too, its not as fast as it is in the NBA where most teams jack up the shot very early on. I think euro league kind of basketball is very balanced and precised.
50 in euroleague is like 80-90 in nba
how?
Radivoj Korac scored 99 way back in 1965. I know it wasn't the Euroleague of today by a long shot but still impressive. He averaged 54.8 that season. Granted they only played 6 games but those where also only 40 minutes long back then.
Good job Nigel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brother its Alba Berlin, not exactly a top franchise 🤣🤣
And?
Alba berlin is still very good Buddy. Considering they only lost by a few points against madrid a few weeks back
I guess Wilt and Kobe didn't make their records against top title contenders as well. I also don't value this record so much, because as Spanoulis said "only winning matters", but it's ok.
I just made this comment lol. Those guys would lose to college teams in the U.S. Euroleague needs to take them out asap.
@@LordoftheTHOTs I doubt it. I think the top euroleague teams are stronger than the bottom NBA teams like this year's Pistons. I don't really know where to classify college teams, but I think teams like Pistons and Hornets are stronger than them.
Lets see how much he scores against a real defence. Last time he faced one he was in single digits!
He is a 4 man 4 not a guard thats special even against alba if its so easy alba is playing euroleague for so long why nobody scores so much against them?! To be clear as a nr. 4 man!
I agree, 50 points against anyone is very impressive.
In 30 min by the way 😂😮
50 in Europe is 85 in NBA
💛💙🇹🇷❤️🏆🤲🏻🫡⭐️
Talent is also lower in the Euroleague. Put Luka in the Euroleague right now and he easily drops 50
Thats always be maybe! Its never easy to score in the euroleague… if its so easy he should score 50 pts in eurobasket/em europe is completly different!
@@yasinemre3510 He dropped 47 against France last Eurobasket.
It is easier if your teammates are crap
you guys keep comparing euro to nba im sorry but the average nba player is way better then anybody in euro lets be real bro is not in the league for a reason just compare it to euroleague which is the second best league in the world and has amazing basketball and not to nba
If you score 50 points in modern basketball and you dont have 90% accuracy your coach is bad
Theyll base it on what you have done in the USA college, and any other league you played for .. Wisconsin stats probably not your peak and you have grown but 12.4 a game amazing but not 50 Point worthy ... Isaiah Thomas coming over and knocking down just 25 a game would tell a better story .. like wow it must be hard... great work Nigel amazing professional not talent because youve been doing it for awhile
"85 - EASY"... 🤣🤣🤣 Stop the 🧢 Nigel... Not to mention half a meter 3pt line distance difference.. Luka recently did 33-25 FG (76%) 73 points there. Plus 10 rebounds and 7 assists, almost a triple double in a super close final seconds winning ending game.You did 27-18 (66%) to go for 50. In a BLOW OUT. Had just 2 rebs as PF and fckn 0 assists I think. WTF Nigel, you're cool and only good memories from you playing for green and white, but dude, just enjoy the record - no need to disrespect the league where you ain't by just overbraging yourself and purely 🧢🧢🧢 85, EASY... Smhhhhh...
The level of play in the NBA is still a different tier man... look at how it took Wemby and Luka time to adjust, and they are generational talents. You can't tell me Luka wouldn't scorch the Euroleague now! He was doing it when he was a baby! Come on, no disrespect because it is still a very difficult league to play in, but to say it is harder, is just crazy talk. The difficulty is based on your competitors, period, regardless of the rules, or court size, minutes, etc.
If you have actually watched the euroleague and you keep saying things like that, then you dont understand basketball. The defence in the nba, especially in the regular season, is almost non-existent. Its extremely boring to watch. The players are better, of course, but their shots are not contested at all.
Lets take Luka for example. During his last euroleague season, he was scoring 16ppg(which is considered great in europe), and in his first nba season (where it was supposed to take him some time to adjust)he was scoring 32 ppg. He himself said that its harder to score in europe.
Bro Luka himself said it was way way harder to score in the euroleague.
Luka was considered one of the best Euroleague players and he averaged 10 ppg. A double digit scorer is an elite scorer in euroleague.
NBA scorers come to the Euroleague and can’t buy a bucket to save their lives, we’ve seen it time and time again.
@@georges6957 he scored 21 his rookie year he scored 32 last year in year 5
@@thedepresseddog6035 well, the stats I saw say otherwise
@@georges6957 you can Google luka doncic rookie year stats and it stays he averaged 21.2 pts/ 7.8 rbs/ 6.0 ast/ in 72 games. So unless he had another rookie season in the nba that I'm missing. You're wrong, respectively. You probably saw his stats from last year.
Yes, I agree it is hard to drop 50 in Europe, but why are we acting like it wasn’t against alba Berlin😂🤣 that team is HORRIBLE!! I can guarantee you the team that wins the NCAA Men’s championship could beat them.
