Who is Panathinaikos...

[Panathinaikosfan13]

I understood that most of you don't have any idea about Panathinaikos BC.So I have to make you a showing of Panathinaikos BC.Panathinaikos is currently the best team in Europe,winning the Euroleague title last season.Panathinaikos also won the Greek championship and Greek cup.PAO's squad is full of world-class players who join their national teams,as Dimitris Diamantidis,6-5 PG part of Greek National team.Other worth-mentioned players are Vasilis Spanoulis (joined Houston Rockets last season),Mike Batiste(Memphis Grizzlies),Sani Becirovic(SG from Slovenia) etc..Manager of Panathinaikos is Zelimir Obradovic,the best manager in Europe(maybe worldwide) who win with Panathinaikos its last 3 Euroleague titles.If you are more interested about Panathinaikos search for videos on youtube or ask me...and wait for the match...i think we(PAO) will win.


Thanks a lot,Ilias

:wtf

I think most people here know about Panathinaikos. But thanks for the info.

[velik_m]

So who is this Panathinaikos bloke?

[Panathinaikosfan13]

I just worried because someone wrote about Schortsianitis who doesn't play for Panathinaikos but for Olympiakos.But i'm proud if it's true that you know about Panathinaikos.Some links: http://www.euroleague.net/main/teams/showteam?clubcode=PAN

I also wish to my country Greece winning European Cup this year in Spain(loosers) and to Costas Koufos to get drafted in the 10 first positions.

link?

[El_Mago]

It's true.

Someone wrote that in a thread.

Good looking out, PathFan.

[Kori Ellis]

True. I have seen some fans mix those two teams up.

[Dex]

Spanoulis was a Spur for like 3 weeks. It was exciting.

[T Park]

I know nothing about either team, but i must say one of my favorite sandwiches is a Gyro.

So props to the Greeks for inventing that!! :)

[Mr. Body]

It's all Greek to me. Nowat Span's no longer our issue, I could give a crap.

[10-tka]

I like Greece and I love Athens but this thread is stupid. :)

[objective]

Will Schortsianitis ever play for the Clippers?

[Bruno]

Will Schortsianitis ever play for the Clippers?

He has some serious weight troubles.

A recent picture of him (less than one week old) :

http://www.thrylos-fans.net/images/stories/basket/sofo-meta.jpg

As you can see, he is in a worse shape than last summer when he played against USA NT. I don't see him at all playing in nba if he doesn't solve his weight troubles.

[BronxCowboy]

:lol Damn, bro, pull away from the buffet!!

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

wikipedia says he weighs 332 pounds right now at 6-9.


Yes Pana is GREAT team, most nba fans thinks Greece national team and Pana and Olympiakos is same teams.

Anyway, Pana is good enough team to make playoffs in NBA East Conference.

American basketball fans for some reason does not understand how European basketball works, most thinks all "Euro" players plays in "Euroleague" but only best of best teams can even compete in it.

Most Americans fans thinks "MVP of Spain" is same as "Euro MVP" etc.


:rolleyes

[whottt]

Panathanikos = sucks
Vassilis = sucks
Greece = sucks


Only the good to come out of Greece in a 150 years is the gyro....

[Slomo]

Well they stole that from the Turks, so it must be good... :devil:stirpot:

Googling now.

[Slomo]

Yeah, I think so.

But, I was really trying to get a rise out of the Greeks :lol

[Kamnik]

Panathanikos = sucks
Vassilis = sucks

You forgot to add:

whottt = sucks

And Greeks and their players are awsome imo. Play with heart and balls unlike like some of our players...

Unless you take that Greek Dick out of your mouth, don't talk to me again.

:wtf Weren't you touting him as a great pickup for the Spurs and advocating the Spurs keeping him? Flopped positions on him once he was released?

[SAtown]

I have the jersey of the soccer club Panathinaikos and have visited their olympic stadium...

[whottt]

:wtf Weren't you touting him as a great pickup for the Spurs and advocating the Spurs keeping him? Flopped positions on him once he was released?



If he signed here I'd like him more...isn't that kind of obvious?

However since he didn't...I can only conclude he's a pussy.


Not wanting to play for the Rockets = Intelligent, admirable even.

Not wanting to play for the Spurs = Dumbass, wuss even.

If he doesn't want to play here? Fuck him. I hope he chokes on a falafel.



On top of that...Gyro boy Pana got on my nerves when he came on like every other third world dirt floor living rat eating generalizing cocksucker that think he's an expert on America becuase he saw Die Hard. It's so common....you know?


If that's the way they want it...

Ok, I concur. I still think he may try to come back next year after he gets his family situation settled and the Spurs have cap room for him. Until that happens, what a pussy.

He can't...he's there for 3 years. And I believe that was announced either after the Spurs waived him...or after they agreed to do so.

If it weren't for Greece, there wouldn't have been the original "Blind Homer".

[whottt]

Yeah but...that was 2000 years ago...they didn't suck then like they do now.

[Whisky Dog]

I thought he had an out clause after one year if he were to go back to the Spurs. I could be mistaken, though.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

He does, but Panathinaikos Greens made his buyout $4.85 million.

[Freeze]

i think we(PAO) will win.

The preseason game ?
who really cares ?
Spurs preseason record last year was 2W-3L but we won the title, these games are just trainings

[Kamnik]

Just stfu..

Unless you take that Greek Dick out of your mouth, don't talk to me again.

Geeez, you have to be what.... 12, 14 to talk such badass language?

No wonder you get owned by timvp in every damn topic.

Grow up and then come back and talk shit everywhere if it is really necessary for us to witness your "basketbal knowledge" on the lowest possible level.

And im no Greek....

[Solid D]

Well their basketball NT is good, having reached the final four in three of the last four FIBA World Championships, and having pwn3d Team USA in the last one in Japan.

Way to pick on a country beset by a major fire tragedy. What's next, writing 12 paragraphs on why Mother Teresa was a big hypocrite...just because you have the time? 'Clearly a bad year for you so far.

You never know with whottt what gear of moronic he is in.

Seems to me that he puts it one gear higher every few weeks.

[Ellinaras]

It's obvious that the guy who started the off topic is new to the forum, but some of the things, more seasoned people wrote, are plain classless.
Whott, when the Greeks were building the Parthenon, your ancestors were eating nuts and bananas using some kind of sign language to communicate, you clueless primate.
Back to basketball, Greece never got the respect it deserves. Back in 87 when Greece won the Euro, beating the great Yugoslavian (twice in the tournament) and USSR teams, it was just plain luck. Two years ago they won the Euro again crashing Dirk's Gemany, they lucked out again. And looking how competitive Greek NTs faired against US NTs throughout the last 2 decades, those Greeks plain suck.
As for the Euroleague, Panathinaikos is the golden standard during the last decade.
Greece is no favorite to repeat in this year's Euro.
Big Sofo didn't make the team 'cause coach Yianakis is running the show Pop style, team first. Fotsis will not be there, wrist injury. The Greek team is getting older by the minute, another similarity with those old fart Spurs.
But there's one thing Greeks have that no other team has, Greek heart.
This team will play for the 60+ people who lost their lives in the worst fire tragedy to hit the country, for the mother who was found hugging her 4 children, all burned alive.
Whottt, your kind makes America look bad in the eyes of the rest of the world, and this is sad 'cause this is a great country.
Spain is the new Troy and Greece will find the way to avenge the loss in the World finals.
Go Spurs.

See what happens when you annoy me?

Mother Teresa > Vassilis



I can't believe you just compared Vassilis to Mother Teresa....are you Greek?

I know you aren't...Borat.

[whottt]

Anyway Greeks, thanks for the lecture on who Pathianikos is...we'd never heard of them before this thread. It was needed.


And thanks for also letting us know that most Americans don't give a shit about Euroleague...we didn't know that either.


Where would we be without you experts telling us about ourselves and spreading enlightenment to us poor dumb arrogant Americans...
