Very simple 1) Olympiacos/Pao/Partizan/Zvezda 2) Fener/Maccabi/Zalgiris 3) Efes Huge gap Everyone else The difference is Greeks and Serbians are ULTRAS not just fans like zalgiris and maccabi for example

Greek and Serbian Ultras are the best in Europe!!!!!no one close to them ❤️

Balkan fans are the best, especially Greeks and Serbs, they are absolutely insane

Great video. Serbian and Greek fans are the best.🇷🇸♥️🇬🇷💪

As a panathinaikos fan , it's Partizan by a mile. I went to an away game and the atmosphere was unlike anything I've ever seen

Nobody can compare to serbian and greek fans they are on completely other level

Any Serbian or Greek team would do the job. No mistakes there. For me personally, Partizan is no.1 but not by far.

As a Die hard Žalgiris fan who watch Euroleague for almost 20 years (I am 26 years old). My top fan bases are: 1. Partizan 2. Panathinaikos 3. Zvezda 4. Olympiacos 5. Maccabi Tel Aviv 6-7. Žalgiris/Fenerbahçe 8. Virtus 9. Baskonia (Tau Ceramica) 10. Barcelona Non-Euroleague teams - Aris, P.A.O.K., Budućnost, Galatasaray

Greek and Serbian fans are the best 🇬🇷❤️🇷🇸

i am german and i watched some euroleague games this season. for me the partizan fans are now the best one! and of course olympiacos as well.

Lets be real Balkan has the best fan bases and they are a lot similar to there football fans

Greek and Serb brothers forever

Partizan fans are the best in this Euroleague season. At home and as a guests. In several games as a guests, it was almost more Partizan fans then home team fans (Virtus, Milano, Alba, Bayern).

Im Croatian and live in Munich, was going to Bayern and have to be honest - Partizan over all! Period. Best of the best. O Partizaneee O Sampioneeee... Pozz svim Grobarima

Greek and Serbian

As an argentinian i need to say partigano De Belgrado

1- Partizan - Crvena Zvezda 2- Panathinaikos - Olympiacos 3- Maccabi 4- Zalgris

For me Partizan is now no 1. I can say that just by looking at my dad. He doesn't like hooliganism and ultras, but when we go to the game he is completely different person. He yells and do all the chants with other fans. For me there is no better atmosphere than the Partizan's one. Partizan also has football team that never make a full stadium even on european matches. On the basketball we almost always (euroleague) fill up whole arena. If I'm bored whole day and stuff like that, when I go to the match I get crazy and full of spirit from there.

Greek and Serbian teams. Adding Zalgiris and Maccabi. That's it, that's the list.

Partizan home Euroleague games are something beyond sport. If you are a sports fan,this should be among the top3 on the list of things to see/expirience in your lifetime.

Proud to be a European basketball fan! 🏀

Greece Serbs turks football or basketball they are the best and the most passionate

FIRST, TOP CLASS SUPPORTING LEVEL: Serbia, Greece, Turkey(Zvezda, Partizan, Olympiacos, PAO, Fener, Efes) SECOND, EXCELLENT SUPORTING LEVEL: Lithuania, Israel, Italy( Zalgiris, Macabbi Tel-Aviv, Virtus Bologna) THIRD LEVEL rest of all..

No one in the world can’t be compared with Partizan’s basketball culture. This is not about screaming in the games. It’s much more. That’s something else. With all problem around, this is club with amazing number of high class players in the history of basketball, and connection between club and supporters is philosophy of living, and people in Serbia know what I’m talking about.

it is difficult to choose one best but there are these: serbians, greeks and lithuanians fans

The best fans are in Serbia, Turkey, Greece (loud stadiums and very loyal ultras) and surprisely Germany (small arenas which is very difficult to play. Bayern, Brose Bamberg for example).

The only correct answer is Partizan,by far best athmosphere in euroleague and best connection between players and fans

If Fenerbahçe's basketball stadium was in Kadıköy (where we have our football stadium) we would be the 2nd best fans right behind Partizan.

It's Partizan lads, let's be honest they got us all beat

PARTIZAN fans are the BEST!!!!

Having been to the first-ever Belgrade derby in the EuroLeague several weeks ago, Partizan fans singing 'Da volim crno bele' before the match has to be among the top things I've witnessed. The passion they exerted with each word was something special. Besides, my love goes to Maccabi and their announcer Shai Sidi. He's the only one in the EuroLeague who STARTS the chants and corrects the fans if they aren't very enthusiastic during the beginning of the chant. The leader of Gate 11 also has a microphone so that the entire Menora Mivtachim Arena can start chanting together.

Without thinking, first Partizan, then everyone else.

Partizan and Red Star! Only who didn't been present can say different!!!

KK Partizan has the best, craziest, most loyal fans in the world.

olympiakos and panathinaikos as well as serbian teams are the best by far

Partizan fans are best

Fener fan here - safe to say it is Partizan

1.Partizan Belgrade 2.Pao,Olympiacos,Red Star Belgrade,Macabi. 3.Zalgiris,Fenerbahce,Efes

Partizan has to take this.

I think: Partizan Maccabi Olympiacos Panatenaikos

Žalgiris fan: I live in Lithuania where Žalgiris Kaunas plays and if u want to make some memories and enjoy your time I HIGHLY recommend visiting Kaunas. The arena itself is on a little island surrounded by Lithuania's biggest river "Nemūnas". If you're wondering how do u get to the Area on the Island - there's a bridge to it 🇱🇹

1. PARTIZAN BELGRADE 2. (empty) 3. (empty) 4. (empty) 5. Others.. End of story..

Partizan was for decades now club with biggest avg att in Adriatic league even without any important tittle for 8 years now and without Euroleague. Almost bankrupt in 2015 playing with anonymus players fought for staying in Adriatic league, menage to finish 5th that season. So yeah we deserved this one

I'm a huge fan of European Basketball fans. They bring so much energy that American fans sorely lack. I would love to go to a European Basketball game and witness the awesomeness myself. It's definitely on my bucket list now to go to a game.

Partizan

Its definitely not monaco, asvel, barcelona or milan. I tell you that for free

Great vid!

1.Partizan *gap* Crvena Zvezda Zalgiris Maccabi Greek fans *big gap*

1 ignored element you might have missed - Away games attendance , maccabi usually brings minimum of 250 fans each away game that can reach upto 1000+ (like in berlin games). this is a huge part in finalfours when maccabi fans dominates the arena holding around 80% attendance (unless the F4 is beeing held in a counrty that has a local team in the F4). that just might bring them over the top.

My perspective is that Greeks are the best Fans in Europe and something you guys missed . The smallest arena in europe is Salle Gaston Medecin (Monaco's Arena ) which have only 4.090 seats @BasketNews

Very good Video Bro !

Great channel

I'm a ASVEL (for the past 30 years). We used to have a very loud crowd back in the 90's. Unfortunately changes in ownership killed that passion and a different crowd is now attending games. What I want to say is: no matter what the cultural differences are in supporting teams, we should all be proud of the fans in Europe. The passion, the noise, the visuals and madness needs to be a part of the Euroleague and other leagues here! Be very proud, this is awesome!

Absolutely gold stuff. Ive been watching the NBA for 30 years. I want to say something like "basketball is getting popular in Europe" but it's clear that us Americans have been sleeping on Europe. I like the insanely passionate fanbase

All things considered, Lugo, a tiny city in Spain it’s quite good at attendaces since it usually fills a 70% of a 5700-6250 seats arena with a 97000 population

I'm so excited to see you Greece & Serbia fans in the Philippines in August

Partizan for sure

We are making decisions by matches in a Euroleague. However, worth to check how fans are traveling and supporting in national leagues. There are some teams which have not a big amount of fans ~200, but on away games they got 50 fans on a trip.

I see what you did here.. Respect.. Got a sub. Balkan rules.

Im spanish and I think Zalguiris got the best fanbase. You can go with your friends and go crazy if you are young. You can go with your kids if you are adult. You can go with abroads teams jersey if you are foreigner. Always sold out and nice enviroment.

Partizan No.1 withouth doubt. Great atmosphere watching their games

Partisan fans are more devoted fans in the world. They are unbelievable.. Nobody can't imagine that passion .. They are numero uno...

Partizan, Olympiakos, Aris, Makabi and Zalgiris

It’s obvious. Partizan 1. place by far. And I can guarantee it’s safe fore everyone to come to matches. Then we have Zvezda Panathinaikos and Olympiakos. We must look objectively, these are hardest places to come for win because of the crowd pressure(don’t look at Panata this season😂, but they will come back). If Partizan and Zvezda can come slightly to Real Barca Fener Efes or others with investments they can easily win the Euroleague, especially Partizan who breathes basketball. Guys, 2 months before Partizan matches with Olympiakos Real and Barca you can’t find a ticket for 20.000 arena for all those 3 matches… that’s crazy.

If you watch any basketball, you would know that last 20 years of Europen basketball, Partizan is played 13 seasons and this season, and always is full gym, crazy atmosphere and everyone can see what is happening this season and how many people is watching Partizan games , home and away. So its not even close..

Partizan Belgrade by far ...then I would say Panathinaikos

greek and former jugoslavians are the best and i would rate the belgrade derby and the big greek derby equal from atmosphere perspective israel and turkey have great fans as well. what I like about Germany is that football Bundesliga can be a very "stressful" experience at times with huge police gathering, fan marches through cities, entrance strip search and so on. so like ALBA basketball gives me a very family friendly and unstressful experience and still some good atmosphere and some good quality basketball, sure would be nice to have the same passion when it comes to basketball like in southern Europe but I enjoy the difference between football atmosphere and a more relaxed one. in Germany some quote basketball to be a university student sport coz the original German basketball Bundesliga teams all are situated in university cities like Bamberg, Heidelberg, Göttingen and so on so the influence of big football teams is not as strong as the big European teams which have football and handball teams as well and the attendance is cross over from every sport the club has to offer on a professional level

Partizan fans, Grobari are best basketball fans in the world right now.

Although Aleksandar Nikolić Hall has much less capacity than Belgrade Arena it is much more acoustic. It can be so loud there that you can't hear your thoughts sometimes.

Yes but the numbers are not as important as the capacity of the stadiums. If one team has 15.000 seats stadium and 8.000 fans is 53% and much less than a team that has 10.000 seats and 7.000 that is 70% attendance. But It was a very good video as always!! ❤ Much love!

Greek and Serbian fans followed by Turkish and Lithuanians.

as a macaabi fan i got to say that the atmosphere in tel aviv has gotten weaker with the corona and all but its coming back anyway just here to say that macaabi wins this years final four

As a serbian and partizan fan i think partizan fanbase is the best. Great video i got gouseboups

Partizan, not just home games, away games as well! Gde god da igra...!

Maccabi home games record in the past seasons proves everything. 7-1 this season 13-3 2021-2022 2020-2021 season ended on bad record due to the covid restrections not allowing fans to attend the matches. 13-1 2019-2020

Love you 🇬🇷 🇷🇸 ❤

Fener probably attracts more fans in some away games (especially Germany and France) than some teams attract at home. Watch any Fener away game and you will see at least a thousand fans in the arena. Any arena from Moscow to Germany. Now that's what I call a true fan base.

I would say Partizan has the strongest and best Basketball Fanbase, the atmosphere that they make every game is just incredible !

…aaaaand Partizan just crushed that attendance record

Insanely passionate one bruh

Gde god ti da igraš tu su tvoji GROBARI 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤 СРЕЋАН БОЖИЋ❤️

Žalgiris, Partizan, Zvezda, Oly, Pana

One thing is certain.Euroleague,in its today's form with the closed contracts, destroyes the european basketball and eventually nothing will be left.Their passion is only money!Years will pass and in the end we ll have the memories and the vids from the past to remind us how great this sport was where everybody could have their chance within one summer just by selecting the right and talented players.From an 40 years old Aris fan who grew up back then let me tell you something.The biggest european team was Jugoplastica.Doesnt exist anymore.The biggest achievement was obradovic 1st european title with partizan in 93 if i remember correct.Check their average age not the names of players who eventually became legends.That year they were considered as hot prospects.

In Serbia and Greece this is too ooo hot. Maccabi and Zalgiris are bringing a lot of people but without hostility/pressure. It was hot in Turkey couple of year before but now there is not any ultra group in their arena, it is almost like in NBA...

keep track this upcomign season , both clubs will be playing in stark arena

Belgrade Arena hold Euroleague record of @23.000.

Alba Berlin has around 9.000-10.000 visitors each game for over 10 years now and that without football hooligans "supporting" the basketball team, I find that to be underappreciated

As a Greek, I would say Lithuanian fans. Because you're so fuckin passionate, but actually civilized. You shout your hearts out and support your team but no mothers, wifes, families or loved ones of the players, coaches and refs are for some reason targets of cursing, sex slurs and all kinds of shit. A huge plus would be that everyone attending games (on and off court) can actually breathe, you seem to respect their right to do so, which is not the case here.

05:37 the transition got me off guard xD

Olympiakos, Zvezda, Pao and Partizan are the best🇬🇷🇷🇸

Serbia, Greek & Turkey . I like it with Ultra vibes

PARTIZAN

As a Maccabi fan, I say Serbian fans are the best and then Lithuanian fans, but sometimes I think they're both number one in their own way. With Zalgiris, it's like a beautiful, passionate carnival! I love it so much. Love the amazing Serbian fan base too.

Fenerbahce fan here: I wanna say our fans are unfortunately getting worse since we became the champion in 2017, back then we have non-stop energy, our chants were more enthusiastic and pure passion. The 2017 Euroleague final was a great example of this. But after 2017, our fans are getting less energetic, our chants are nowadays are almost soulless and people watching the games like watching a theater. I pretty sure the main reason is the saturation among our fans after the 2017 title, also the last 2 unsucessful seasons are the other factors. As fans, we still have a passion and love for this game and our team but our energy and enthusiasm are it's not like it used to be anymore. Honestly, Efes and Maccabi fans are much more energentic and enthusiastic than us.

You should look outside Euroleague there are many great fanbases out there too

As a Greek the top fans are: 1. Panathinaikos/Partizan 2. Olympiacos/Zvezda 3. Maccabi/Zalgiris 4. Paok/Aris Thessaloniki

I guess only players and referees could answer which fans are the best. This is not about how nice songs or claps are. This is about how hard for visting team it is to play there, how it effects the result. And also about how audience undestands the game and its smallest details (pressure for referees). As Zalgiris fan I guess for my team the most hard place is always Belgrade (both teams). About understanding the game and pressure to referees, that is Kaunas, since some 90% of spectators played basketball themselves (where else home team gets hard applause for on-time made foul before 4 foul limit).

They all have a unique style which is awesome.

Beginning of the video: "I'm not just gonna say who's the best cause there would be fight in the comments" End of video: "so you decide who's the best by fighting in the comments" What a genious
