What The Game’s Been Missing

The NBA and Europe with Matej


Listen Later

The team took the week off with the All-Star Break, but we didn't want to leave you unfed, so Bibs sat down with a friend to discuss both a league and a phenomenon that is occurring in Europe right now.


Adam Silver and the league have been promoting NBA Europe during the All-Star Weekend, so I wanted to get a perspective on this upcoming league from someone in Europe. We also discussed the trend of lower-half-of-the-bench NBA players choosing bigger roles in Europe over being a role player or bench player in the NBA. The money gap has shrunk, so players who actually want to play can do so.
