- In a recent interview that the former CSKA player Aaron Jackson gave while visiting the states this summer he talked about the infamous "Spanoulis" play. As well as a Spanoulis story for when he was playing for the Houston Rockers.
For those interested the other 2 players he mentioned were Nando De Colo and Sergio Llull.

Its very interesting as Aaron talks about the differences between Euroleague and the NBA
That was interesting, thank you.
ESPN or other big sports networks needs to make interviews/podcast with American players in Euroleague every once in a while. It brings awareness to how good the game actually is down there. I'm had it with all these people who lessen these legends down there and insist that college basketball is somehow better than Euroleague. Also, it's interesting af to listen to different perspectives of the game.
Besides the play that Aaron Jackson mentioned, Spanoulis mastered the pick&roll since he was in Panathinaikos. Nemanja Bjelica once said: "In Fenerbahce,coach Obradovic used to mention a lot Vassilis Spanoulis whenever he talked about the pick&roll".We all know they don't have a good relationship anymore,but he surely recognizes that Kill Bill is the pick&roll master. It's no secret that Spanoulis with his assists turned all the centers ,who came to Olympiacos as mediocre players, into great scorers (Kyle Hines, Bryan Dunston, Othello Hunter, Khem Birch, Nikola Milutinov).
Hines, Dunston, Birch, Milutinov M E D I O C R E players! only bullshit you can hear from spanoulis fans (or turnoveroulis, traveloulis etc)
@@therealpicknrolla7604 So my friend, You think that all these Centers were something else than mediocre players the time before Olympiacos?
@@therealpicknrolla7604 Please do not text such nonsense...
@@netvalue4075 what do you mean? spanoulis tought them basketball? of course they came at a time when nobody knew them, but it is obvious that they had the potential to become top players in their position and they did! thats why Olympiakos couldnt keep them. Hines in CSKA for so many years, now Milutinov in CSKA, Dunston one of the most well paid centers in Euroleague and Birch an NBA player playing 20 minutes per game. thats their talent not spanoulis. did he teach sloukas also? he had great players besides him and at least one great coach (Ivkovic), of course Bartzokas is a good coach also. you present traveloulis like a magician who made Hines better, thats ridiculous. they were a great team, with a great coach, and spanoulis was good at his part playing the pick and roll, everything else is fairy tales for children
Lol if spanoulis is the pick n roll master then what sarunas and diamantidis are ??
Even in this days european players are underrated in USA despite the fact they have shown skills,high basketball IQ and most of the time they have played for the wins of the team,not personal stats.Different mentality.No surprise many american players choosing to play in Euro Champions League and develope themselves further.Coach Q learned a lot coaching CSKA as well.Plus being humble man knowing what it takes to reach next level.Key word is development as team.Or you can buy team like they do in NBA?
No question about it.What is "fascinating" about NBA is bandwagon media coverage.They decide who is good player and who is not according to standards of NBA and who brings most money to NBA.So yes athleticism is a good thing if you need 7-8 years to blossom in NBA.They were disrespecting Luka Doncic before draft,changed their tune after his 1st year and now they are talking about next level.Personally I watch Euroleague any given day before NBA.Skills,execution and shooting level is far better in Europe.If I want to watch 120kg athlete,I watch weightlifting or something.I know I am disrespecting NBA now same way they respect european players,but fact remains top 5 NBA players include 3 european players.Doncic,Jokic,Giannis.Enough said.
In NBA they’ll rather spend 5 years trying to develop Markel Fultz then give the ball to Vasilis or Teodosic type of player. If they are to remove lottery system it would be much more competitive league. At the beginning of every season you have people talking about 20 teams that have a chance of winning it and at the All star break you figure it is 2-3 teams that can win the championship
Sabonis? Cedi Osman? Bogdanovic? There’s plenty of non American players who get their opportunity and do pretty well
why you had to trash markelle fultz lmao
Nah Spanoulis was just terrible everytime he played for the Rockets
@@Darwizzy_lover_9 φίλε το έχει πει και ο ίδιος ότι δεν του ταιριάζει το nba

Spanoulis is the best European player in Euroleague's history - Top scorer and most assists too! He is simply the best.
Diamantidis and papaloukas also great
And now he is turning into a very descent coach too
Unfortunately in USA they promote their own players and it is very tough for a Greek player to survive, few great and very successful in Europe players tried but they failed, unless there is a story which fits NBAs marketing...
But there are Freak situations though (eg. a Greek player that one of the 2 NBA All-Star teams is named after...) :P
@@nounix the time Spanoulis go to the NBA it was different if you were a foreign player..now this has changed.
USA is mainly promoting athleticism. That's why Giannis is dominating. Spanoulis is just not that kind of player and he did the best thing for his career, by returning to Greece
@@loseyourself6881 Since Spanoulis is the role model for Giannis and Luca it is self explanatory that you are clueless about “Kill Bill” and the hard working mentality he brought into the game.
Athleticism is a word with a meaning totally different from what you probably think and/or imagine.
@@nounix he is Nigerian
THE KING OF EUROPE!
Not even close to Diamantidis

Jeff who?
My god, he had a basketball God in his team and told him to scrub the floors...
Glad he is a mediocre tv person at best now.. : /
Still pisses me off that Spanoulis did not got his chance in the NBA, he was Steph before Steph even existed..

Goat!
and now duncan robinson runs something similar with Bam Adebayo at the top of the key
Who is the 3 rd player?

happy to see spanoulis papalouks diamadidis pridezis and now giannis antetokounmpo...playing and make GREEK BASKETBALL FAMOUS!!!!....im kinda disapointing iam young so i didnt witness nikos gkalis and panayotis giannakis..
You haven't lost anything important from old players except from Galis. He was a world class scorer.
@@levesd3722 That is not true tbh. Galis was phenomenal for Europe noone denies that. But saying you didnt miss a thing form old players...Giannakis, Fasoulas, Diamantidis , Sigalas, Papaloukas and so many others ...
@@antonyace there were good players too but I think the 2005 generation was superior(with the exception of Galis).
BEST PLAYER IN EUROLEAGUE HISTORY

Who is aaron jackson?
very experienced Guard, who played PG for CSKA for example, he was a very good defender, last year he also played for Maccabi I think
The presentator is not Sirius.
He's Alpha Centauri
@@giokun100 LOL.... !!!!
this is detroit pistons play for point guard in 2000s.
Diamantidis and Spanoulis two of the best players ever played IN Europe.
Spanoulis yes - the other one is completely unknown in America, nobody has ever heard of him
@@iosifpateroulis1081 then you are not a koby fan so we dont waste our time with you bb
Bodiroga is a genius too
haha sure buddy, 2 Greeks best European players ever? ;)))
@@nationarmy2514 Spanoulis Diamantidis and Kalathis are top 5 in Greece. There are too many legend players from ex-Yugoslavia..
Thank you fucking Huston for giving us Spanoulis... 💯 Kill-Bill is your daddy with the number 7
THIS GUY SERIOUSLY SAID SPANOULIS ISNT A GREAT SHOOTER 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If curry and draymond run this play a lot its a problem!
Spanoulis is not a great shooter??? Wtf is this guy saying, is he drunk or something?
With a 32% 3pointer career stat he surely isn't a great shooter. Great scorer, hell of a great player but not a great shooter...
@@kilianmoura7441 I'm not sure if you are dumb or you acting dumb rn
@@thanasis834 No he is not a great shooter. His 3point percentage is really low. Compare it with other Euroleague legends. He had to shoot a lot though, through his career, and difficult shots. On the other hand, even though 32% is a BAD percentage it doesn't make him a bad shooter. But you can't, by any means, call him a good one.
@thanasis834 I'm more than sure about you though "thanasis". You surely are dumb as fuck. You say something stupid just because you are a Spanoulis fan and then, when time comes to properly argue your point you prove that you re even dumber than everyone thought. Congrats 👏!!! Not only you' re his number one groupie, but you' ve also accomplished to ruin what could have been a nice conversation.
@@kilianmoura7441 mediocre shooters can't catch fire like he does. It's just in all of his career teams have been double and triple teaming him so he can't get the easy shots that 40% 3pt shooters get. Don't ever think that you can know all the story just by numbers. If spanoulis gets a wide open three, it is money in the bank all day.
Basket is not a pattern or a spanoulis play or whatever . Basket is a fantastic sport that is played by heart and with passion.
Spanoulis he could have a tremendous nba career. He was as good if not better than parker (french). He just needed an nba coach to see what he could do. Unfortunately vg was not that guy as in general he is a beyond average coach. If he played for pop or spolstra then it would had been a different story
Mr Jackson get ur facts correct...that play u call" spanoulis play" was originally mind invented from DIMITRIS ITOUDIS, at the time second coach off Legentary team Panathinaikos Athens,and head coach Zeliko obradovich.They together evolved the play into the famous piknroll that was played from Mike Batiste with Dimitris Diamantidis with huge succes..
who tf is this interviewer ... he needs to learn smn about the king
you must realize that spanoulis is known in europe but in the nba he was nothing. thas why jeff van gundy talked to him like that. they dont care about euroleague when NBA is for years the most difficult and spectacular championship in the world
bro the ball played by olympiakos - pao in esake finals from 2000-2013 is some of the best basketball of all time. Dnt b fooled by the hype ... OSFP and PAO in this time-period could have taken any great nba teams (if the game was being played at home with euro rules)... but nba court size and rule set different game idd
Yeh they don't care that why they lost in 2008 101-96 :P
in the nba he was nothing because the coach didn't give him a chance to acclimatize and unfold his skills. Politics. Nba is more spectacular because they don't play defense to allow scoring that sells the game... Marketing. :P@@gdounito
@@gamoto96 they absolutely would not have been able to beat even the worst nba teams. Those teams had maybe 2/3 nba quality players
basketball in usa is like cartoon but basketball in ue is like a battlefield. We fight bro!
Shows you how bad of a coach Jeff Van Gundy was when you have a talent like Spanoulis and he sits on the bench
..
He has 2 championships
He has 3 championships (2009,2012 and 2013), he has made 5 finals. (2009,2012,2013,2015,2017) probably what confused Jackson who said "5 championships"
@@MegaTobins696he has 3 euroleague titles and maybe jackson was reffering to the greek league A1 titles
yes but 2 back to back euroleague champs.!! only him and tony kukoc have done it....
