THE Vassilis Spanoulis He spoke at the press conference of the game of Greece – Lithuania and had a humorous story with him Vasilis Toliopouloswhich proves once again the family climate in the group.
Vassilis Toliopoulos dropped the coach of national basketball, stressing that it is a great source of inspiration for the whole team, but also for himself, with Vasilis Spanoulis responding with a great dose of humor!
“It is a great source of inspiration for the whole team, especially for me. I grew up with the coach as an idol, I watched him and it is very important that we have him on the bench and inspires us all,” the National Guard said, with Spanoulis reacting, “thank you!”
What Vassilis Spanoulis said:
“I think after the first 2-3 minutes we checked the game for 37 on both sides of the parquet. My players did a great job. Very nice atmosphere. I am very proud of them. All their credits belong to them.”
For Kostas Antetokounbos: “Kostas made a great game. He helped us a lot like all the kids. We know what Kostas can give to the team, today he was very important for victory.”
For the match coming with Turkey and the quarter -finals as a player: “I remember we had a great game, I put a lot of three -pointers, but I made some stupid mistakes in the end. We will make our plan for Turkey and we will be ready.”
For Papanikolaou’s Ataka that “with this victory we gave ourselves the opportunity to continue dreaming”: “I don’t dream because I know what my players can do. I know how they work from day one.”
For arbitration and if John has the treatment worth: “John shoots all the fouls that make him. He should shoot more. When he pulls him and 2-3 players go on him, there are many fouls, but it’s normal for me. He still has 4-6 shots until 20-22, which shoots many players in the tournament.”
For John and his leadership: “He’s the most vocal I’ve ever seen. He is committed to his goals, he is a great leader, perhaps one of the most humble leaders we have seen. He trusts his team, his teammates, he is vocal, such as Sloukas and Papanikolaou.”
For the hunger that exists: “We’ve always been hungry. We represent all our homeland. Sometimes you do it, others don’t. We didn’t win any medal or no cup, we won the quarter -finals and move on to the next.”
For the reasons he took the national: “I took over the National because I believe in Greek players, myself, my Symphs. My way I was approached by both the president and Zisis was very hot. I always loved the national team. It was very easy for me to receive this challenge. semifinal ”.
