Quote:Probably you haven't seen a lot of Perperoglou and definitely you haven't seen a lot of Vasilopoulos. Vasilopoulos is not what you think he's for a team. He's a great defender and a capable shooter! The only thing you got a point at, is that Stratos is soft.
They are both very talented. You probably think that I consider them being super stars. No, I'm just saying that we don't have a problem in 3 position. You also talk about Maciulis like he's Siskauskas...
Maybe is not us who overrate Fotsis but you who underestimate him.
Fotsis a role player?!?!
Come on man. Fotsis may be more valuable for a team than Kleiza. Kleiza is just a great scorer. He's got NOTHING ELSE in his game.
Now, about Bourousis - Kleiza matchup at PF, if we want someone to play defense on Kleiza and Fotsis is on the bench, we can easily put Kaimakoglou on him!
"But who is Šaras in Greek NT?" Maybe you forget Spanoulis!!! By the way, don't be so sure about Diamantidis...!
*Our respective Valanciunas is Calathes by the way.
"Finally, players and not personalities playing on the court." You kidding?! When I'm talking about personality I mean his talent and his impact on the game.
**You overrate Maciulis. He's a great player but you are excessive!
Anyway, the answers will be given in the summer!
I hope Diamantidis will be there!
You might have some points about your 3. Overall it's not a bad bunch, a little bit inconsistent, but not bad at all. As for Mačiulis, my point was that none of them could match Mačiulis physicality, energy and temper. Not even Vasilopoulus who is not a bad defender off course.
As for Kleiza being just a great scorer...That's not true. He is so talented scorer that people maybe fail to see that he's one step further in rebounds than most of his competitors. Kleiza can be a tough defender and great rebounder. I can't follow how Fotsis is better rebounder? Even the stats do not show he's better than Kleiza (6,5 rebounds in 09/10 Euroleague's season while Fotsis 5.5). However, I can't see how we can compare Kleiza and Fotsis here, Kleiza is way superior player and that's end of the story. I'm pretty strict here.
Overall, the tournament will clear thing out, you right about that
