Posting here because I wonder what Europeans think of this NBA league in Europe.

    Could you explain what that means, please? As an NBA watcher and former streetballer, I’m curious.

    Anyway, my personal understanding is that basketball is alive and well in Europe via various leagues, and also has the advantage of the training programs being heavily endorsed by local communities. Whereas in the States, it can cost a lot of money for young players to attend camps and various training programs.

    Apart from that, the NBA already has a lot of problems, so if I was a Euro, I’m not sure I’d want the NBA trying to muscle in. *shrug*

          Doesn’t matter if it’s the same gesture, arms above the shoulder is uncomfortable for them.

          Also observable when Germans are dancing. Even if elbows are bent and palms aren’t flat, it’s just too close apparently.
