It was already announced on the main site but I will do it here too. We are very pleased that the coach Georgis Dikeoulakos agreed to write for us as well as answer the questions of the basketball fans. If you want to ask him any basketball related questions, you can do it here. When we gather enough questions, they will be published on the site together with the answers.

WOW, I think this was a really cool idea, and some dont know just how hard it is to get people like this to do small things like this....

Definitely a nice perk to the site...

Coach Dikeoulakos is a great and respected coach here in Greece. He has both club and international level competition experience with many good teams.

He has been nothing but gold so far by providing thorough answers to everyone who posted a question. Really helpful, so many kudos to him. It is great to have people from the basketball scene lookig after simple basketball fans such as ourselves.
