Are you agreeing that Calathes is better than Spanoulis? Because if you are, you are just as crazy as the guy saying Prigioni is better than Spanoulis.

In fact even crazier, as Prigioni in his day was a much better player than Calathes is.

I mean it depends on the type of play.
In Euroleague where the rules favor fundamentally sound team players over athletes Spanoulis is better than Prigioni and Cathathes.

But in the NBA where the rules favor athletic players Spanoulis was a total scrub who averaged 2.7ppg and Prigioni was much better his one year in the NBA than Spanoulis was in his.

We can't be sure about Cathathes yet bet basically anyone who goes into the NBA is going to be more successful than that scrub Spanoulis.

Spanoulis is far more athletic than Calathes and Prigioni you racist scum.

And you spent YEARS claiming that,

gabepizza: "Prigioni is a SCRUB in Europe that is dominant there but could NEVER play in the super athletic NBA because he is not athletic enough."

Now all of a sudden, you change your story to claim Prigioni can play in NBA because he is athletic. Of course you then say he is more athletic than Spanoulis......

Funny....because you also say "NBA is athletic and Euroleague is slow and stiff".

How strange, that in Euroleague Prigioni was considered slow and non athletic, but you claim he is fine in superior athletic NBA.

Amazing......how a 36 year old "slow and non athletic white stiff" YOUR OWN WORDS for YEARS about Prigioni can now "do just fine in superior athletic NBA because he is athletic" - also YOUR OWN WORDS about Prigioni.



You are a very sick person.

And athletic ability at point guard position is NOT required in the NBA, when a 36 year old point guard (Prigioni), a 37 year old point guard (Miller), and a couple of 40 year old point guards (Kidd and Nash) are all rotation players.

No way in hell can athletic ability be required in the NBA to play point guard when that is happening.

Calathes>>>Shitnoulis

On Panathinaikos and Greek national team, Calathes was the backup of Spanoulis.

Makes sense.............

Panathinaikos / Greek NT level = backup PG

which means of course = signed by the NBA

Since of course the NBA is so superior and everything, that they have to sign backups from Greek NT.

Almost as funny as Greece's 3rd string center, Koufos, being a starter in the NBA.

Yeah, NBA sure is "superior".

All I'm saying is that Prigioni has done better in the NBA than Spanoulis which is not saying much. While he may not be that athletic at 37 he knows how to play with the speed and for and against NBA athletes while Spanoulis in the NBA looked like a boy playing against grown men, sort of how he looked against Nigeria.
