Do not confuse difference in rules of NBA with the capability of it's players. NBA playoff defense is a high level. I have not seen the same intensity in Euroleague playoffs this year. European teams can beat American teams. This is been true for a long time. LA lost to FCB last summer. My question is can the top teams in Euroleague beat the top teams in NBA in a 5 or 7 game series?? I don't see any of the final four EL teams winning a series with any of the NBA play off teams with the exception of the New York Knicks. Any of the final four could beat the Knicks I'd give the odds at 50%. Any other team I'd give 80%-90% to NBA. My reasoning is superior defensive transitions of NBA players. I'm watching Euroleague right now PAO vs FCB final four qualification game. Earlier I watched NBA Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics and OKC Thunder vs Mephis Grizzlies. PAO nor FCB could beat Miami in 7 game series. The NBA teams would make it very difficult for EL teams to score.
