Thompson took the time to write about his thoughts and feelings while playing in Fenerbahce, while at the same time he shared his experience about working with Obradovic:
“We have a Hall of Fame coach in Zeljko Obradovic and a guy who has a resume to prove his worth. Ever since I signed, when I talked to him on the phone, and then in practices and games, I try to absorb the information like a sponge on both sides of the floor. Zeljko is like an encyclopedia”, Thompson explains.
“He has a tough reputation, but very valid because of the type of success that he’s had. He’s a hard-nosed coach, but I can relate to those types of coaches because when coaches are hard on you they want the most out of you, and I can thrive like that. I feel that I can keep getting better with his expertise.”
