NBA doesn’t compare to Europe in terms of crowds. In fact I’d argue in any sport.

You have to understand, the atmosphere is like this before the game, during the game and after the game nonstop, these fans are constantly chanting and don't sit down for 3-4 hours, for important games they're literally chanting like this 2 hours before the game already.

USA = Show Europa = passion 💛💛💛 Aris for ever 💛💛💛

React to nba players talking about European crowds. They even say US crowds don't compare

No flares are illegal inside the stadiums, but once they're smuggled in there's nothing you can do about them

I'm sorry, but there is just no comparing the two. Europe is in its own league.

Playing the national anthem at domestic games is a very American thing. It's a pretty crazy habit

4:56 The lights are out because of a short circuit caused by lightning.

7:12 I'm sorry, but you have no idea how loud this chant is.

This isnt only before the match , this is the the whole match going ❤

What you might not realise is that every set of fans in this video are actually football fans who also 'represent' their Club at other sports, including basketball. They are not just turning up as individuals to 'enjoy' a day out watching the game, they are incredibly well organised, they follow their own strict rules and to them this is not about having fun, it is very serious and the songs they sing have meaning and real passion. The difference between the American audiences is that while they might sing along to music played through the speakers or even sing songs from time to time, they are doing it as individuals, not as part of a highly organised mob. The teams shown include Aris & Panathanaiakos from Greece & Red Star from Serbia, what you are seeing are the main 'ultras' groups or firms who are football fans, this is why they are so well organised and loud.

NBA have money Europe have passion for the club

The flares are illegal they just find a way to get it in...try to go against 10.000 - 15.000 who are ready to kick ass every game

regarding basketball's popularity, The passion is not about basketball itself. I don't care about basketball, but I would go for the club to basketball, handball, or volleyball game! the passion is the same and it is about the club, the city, the heritage, the identity. I am not from Europe, I am from Syria but we have the same, we follow the club!

What are u talking about? It’s before, during AND after the Games. You really have no idea. Visit these games in europe and you will shame for your comparisation.

when even American palyers whos played in the NBA and College basketball says Europena fans are light years ahead comparing it to a war zoon American basketball fans are nowhere near the Europeans and the flares are illigle here as well we just dont care

You said "it's making me anxious" yes, that is it, you can feel it, it's not a show for you to enjoy, it's century old wars being reenacted in sports. You better grab your weak and young and run for the hills

Good Reaction and The European are like this all thru' the game like they are in European Football:)

Franchise v Passion , no contest I'm afraid, European fans are a different level

I know someone who played basketball in Greece as an “import” during the 90’s if the fans thought you were playing poorly, they would heat up coins & throw them at you

We sing non stop during all the game, 1 or 2 hours before the start and 1 hour after.

Yea, they surely sitting quiet and knitting under the rest of the game. LOL

I love Evropian basketbol. Hello from N. Macedonija❤❤

must be allowed... nope, but are you going in there to get them?? No player will kick someone out the stadium in Europe, he might end up dead... Also the first European game was an intercity game, those games are wild and only 1 team has there supporters there

Yeah it's not close you can hear fly fart in american atmosphere 😉.. I get defending your own but its not the same

During games ,nba is better? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, what u watched occurs hours before the game (outside), during the entire game, and after the game.. u have no clue what you talking about 😉

Players who are in nba and have played for fiba have interviews where they talk about the public and they say the difference is absurd, make a video where you pick the best nba clips and compare them

Why do every American think that "flares" are allowed in stadiums in Europe? It is not. There is no difference regarding rules against "flares" in the US and Europe. The only difference is the level of passion.

Well to be fair flares inside a building are not allowed in Europe too. But as usally like in football the fans simple don´t care thats its not allowed.

The USA have no chance against Europe

React to "ultras our way of life" to see what these fans are really about.

We do this before, during and after the game win or lose

flares and cannons are not allowed in europe either, but somehow it always finds its way to stadium. one of my friends worked as a security at some of the matches, both basketball and football. said the ways people smuggel them to stadium are insane. it is crazy too see some extremly hompphobic guys to stuckup flares or cannons up their behinds to smuggel them into.. most of fans in every sports are also football fans, it all depdnes about the league and the match, if it is domestic match among domestic tams, atmpshere is not so high up, but international teams or when representatins play like country vs. country atmoshpere goes up to sky. from where i come almost every game with serbia, does not matter wich sport is considered high risk match, coz of our past we share. in europe a lot of matches often are charged with politicals current events, history, some kind of rivaly...

Cities are closed when there are big games. Rivers of fans march to the arenas. No anthems, no kiss cams...there is no dull moments at all.

Every team on the Eorpean side here are sports club. So the ultras you'll find at football matches you'll find at basketball games, waterpolo, handball, volleyball, etc. They support their teams regardless of the sport. Or even age group & gender. Aris who were first shown for Europeans, before a football game I remember seeing a video of them going a girls volleyball game for like their U15 during the day to support them before their football game later that night.

USA:,,Are you going to game or in war" Europe:,,YES"

Never got why you guys sing your anthem when there are only americans there lol.

Europe has a long fan culture and in the winterseason the soccer fans changes to the indoor sports events like ice hockey or basketball.

Hey guys, I'm from Greece and I'm telling you nothing of that is allowed, but it happens anyway.

I'm a Bucks fan from Europe and after the chip in 2021 I was totally disappointed with the US fans. When your team is the worst for years and then you win a title after 50 years, the city burns!!!! I mean literally. But you also have exceptions, like the Philadelphia NFL fans. They are the closest thing to the fans here.

just to be clear! Basketball in Europe has way more roots then american basketball. It goes back many generations.

Nice video bro

no its not alowed, you will get arrested same in football where even riot police comes

Stop :))) trying to make American fans look crazy and cool :))) we don’t compare and btw it doesn’t matter if its a big or small game we still go crazy and its non stop (before,between game,after) stop asking for more better videos from buzz shoots etc and even for us its not the best videos either (this comment is for both videos after watching both) (i live in cali so i have seen better of your games and etc )and no hate btw it was just annoying watching and hearing you guys trying to make us look good :)))

"it is pretty close"??? ahahahaaa...you'll p*ss yourselves during the chants in the European stadiums/arenas, you have no idea how f loud that is.

just to be sure! The riots/war start at least 2 hrs before the game. And will take another hr after the game.

,, ooooh no, smoke,, you Americans are so fluffy

Sorry for asking is you national anthem forbidden in us? But chants ok???😂😂😂😂

I can tell you one little secret - European basketball is more older then USA basketball 🤣🤣🤣.

Y'all up early

Americans scared about flares when everybody got a gun in the US 😂 so funny.

"Video games are violence" people say but sport fans are more violent then us, well i am not saying all fans are but i have seen many fans who have acted very violently but well like I said i am not saying all are because even i have sports lover friends who are not violent but still why us all the time all these people who says we gamers are violent leave us alone we have nothing to do with your politics nonsensity and stupidity. Loved your video and have a good day.

Pretty close lol😅😂😢

Overseas don't compare to the USA with the fandom

Europe -> always in fans

Why do you have to censor your own national anthem? Thats extremely odd. Over here, we don't use celebrites, two bars on the speakers from the beginning and the fans know what to do; no need to be told.

GATE 13 PANATHINAIKOS 🇬🇷🇬🇷☘️☘️

Yer free pizza because people are getting bord

Check out the Ultras soccer fans

Thats how big you are!😅😅😅

Good old Britain 😄💙💙

Delusional

In terms of crowds is like this Japan

'pretty close', keep lying to yourself

Americans just do not get it do they

Its more like war chants...😎

You haven’t even seen the good European matches
