).

Hi, I'm Ilya
Hi, I'm Ilya
I guess I should have posted here first, but, obviously, my navigating skills are very poor.
I am female, healthy and it's the first time I have joined a forum of this kind, mainly because all the reactions from people around here have impressed me during the past days - since I started lurking that is. Sportsmanship- I admire it.
You guys make me feel like I am from a different planet, because my knowledge of bball is still what it was when I started watching it, in 1986, and I can honestly say I still get confused over some of the newer rules, while you seem to know it all. I swear, I had never noticed the word point guard, although I'm sure Skountis must have been using the word for ages, I used to live in the word of play makers. Been watching without paying any notice to the technical details.
I am from Athens, will be staying in Thessaloniki till March 2007 and the climate is killing me.

Just thought I would say hello. I am going to be following a player who just signed with Eldo Napoli. His name is Tierre Brown and my son was his high school coach. Tierre is a great player and should do well. I love the game of Basketball and am new to the Euro league, but from what happened to our USA guys over there in Europe this year, I think I better get to know the league better. You guys play great basketball and I am looking forward to participating in some discussions. I guess that is about it.

My God i've already posted about 70 p and still remain unintroduced...
How rude from me....
So lets make up even a little bit late
I'm 30 yo, greek.
I am a veterinarian, phD in Food Hygiene.
I'm a big fan of bball since 1987 (galis is the reason, maybe the same for all greeks. So if u want to blame someone for all of us annoying greek bball lovers blame this man).
I always wanted to discuss about bball and this forum gave me the opportunity
ps The only problem (now i found my paradise) is that i have to serve the greek army for 1 year so starting from February 2007 i will be lost for 12 months.

Hi,
I'm 26, from Slovenia, a student of anthropolgy.
A real bball lover since I can remember (that is at least 20 years, maybe more). I love to watch bball, read about bball and play bball, even though I never trained.

Hi I am Tom (40) from Ljubljana, Slovenia
I used to play BB long time ago 'til the injury...I still do but only twice a week (and carefully* )
I think basketball is the best sport of all...
Apart from locals, I like players from former YU countries, Lithuania, Greece and Spain...and yes even some from USA.
Especially the ones from the "REAL" dream team...
and I hate defensive approach to the game!

Greetings from Piraeus ! I joined your community out of obligation because there is some serious misinformation going on in here concerning hellenic- european bball. I mean who on earth, would be proud of wiining a cup when whole Europe was asking from Barcelona B.C. their forgiveness...
No one of course, except of our green friends.
