    Read the article. It was a fun read...makes me want to get good at basketball and sign with a Euro team that has no talent, so I don't look as bad :D

    Lol, i'm pretty sure his Euro team (Panthatiakos or something like that) is getting really good, and is one of the best in Europe.

    Well I understand that...Panathanaikos is a great team. But I was referring to my own career lol...I'd only make a team who is desperate for any kind of player...which will be where I come in :D

    Childress has been doing a solid job so far. Not trying to do too much.

    I think in my head I knew it was Olympiacos, but for some reason I spelled Panathanaikos because I guess I wanted to try to spell it right lol

    Well Panathinaikos also have a basketball team in the Euroleague, but so do Olympiacos, who also have a football (what's a "soccer"?) team. I hope that made sense.

    Panathinaikos have always been one of the best in Europe. They're also celebrating their centenary this season. Anyway, Kobi already shot you down on the error of teams. lol
