Olympiacos’ coach David Blatt and Eurohoops played a game. We gave him names and he gave us for each name a comment, which could have been a word or even something more.
And no matter what you have heard, especially in the States, about coach Blatt, he has a great way with people and also with words.
Here’s what he had to say in the first part of this game about former Maccabi coach Pini Gershon, the club’s president Simon Mizrahi, team manager Nicola Vujcic, Zalgiris Kaunas coach Sarunas Jasikevicius, his former players Andrei Kirilenko, JR Holden, David Blu and Nikos Zisis and also about Luka Doncic, Fenerbahce’s coach Zeljko Obradovic, the club’s GM Maurizio Gherardini, Hapoel Jerusalem’s coach Oded Kattash and last but not least, his former player and new Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv Scottie Wilbekin.
