He was benched because he got mad at the coach for not letting him help his mother that tried to kill herself.
Why the hell can you not let this go? Are you really this petty?

It's not about comparing situations, I could name a number of NBA players where that happened. Its factual that some players just cant play bball anywhere but in USA and vice versa.

I'm not joining side with euro, this is my observation about americans and I see more evidence everyday, and its not just bball.
They think they know it all, and they think their way is the right way.
Well no, you just know American bullshit that is ofen narrow or simply false in most countries.

I know what I find as credible sources, and post them. That's all.
Euroleague makes up garbage and claims it as fact. Huge difference.

This is the European way, to overrate everything you do and believe you are on equal to or even sometimes better than Americans at things

I'm just saying that europeans, australians, asians, whoeverians, do many things better than Americans, and are equal or not far behind in areas that Americans think they are completely more advanced in. You have a brainwashed society that gives you in general a brash arrogant way of thinking.
In general.

exactly. Yes, Euroleague is borderline mentally handicapped, but he I think he just wants people to respect him, and respect the Euroleague and foreign players, give them the credit they deserve.
Americans are not automatically better than everyone else just cuz where they were born. America is home to some of the stupidest, most arrogant and ignorant people on the face of the earth.

He had some bad games too. But it was not bad for a rookie. Certainly, when he got non garbage time playing he did fairly decent for a rookie.
The problem was his coach just did not like him. I'm sure he could probably average over 20 in the NBA now quite easily. I mean Monta Ellis can get like 25 a game, so Spanoulis should be able to get 20 a game with absolute ease in the NBA with fair playing time. I mean Spanoulis is a better all around scorer than Ellis is.
I would say Spanoulis could have averaged 15-16 a game in his rookie season with no problem if he just would have been given consistent playing time.

Monta Ellis is also a way better athlete than Spanoulis.
