    Older brother Thanasis seems to be the one with more athletisicm but I think he is limited offensively, younger brother Giannis who is the interest of NBA scouts looks more versatile, is longer, but less athletic, what do you guys think, I see more of a Nicolas Batum in the Giannis ?

    If Adetokunbo turns out to be a decent player in the league I’m going to give EuroBaller a standing ovation, he was talking about him when there was nothing on even google about them!

    Not sure how old he is but from the video he looks rail thin. How much does he weigh? He is gaining interest from an NBA scouts but I don’t see it although this is the only video i’ve seen of him he doesn’t look very athletic and looks very weak. The older Thianiss though looks like an athletic freak but very raw he hes potential though due to his athletic ability.

      They are both thin, but the younger brother is only 18 y/o, 6’9 with legit guard skills. The older brother looks to be more athletic, but he will be 21 this yr and he’s still raw. If the younger declares for this draft, which is the rumor, I don’t see why the older would not as well. They’re both draftable prospects, with the younger having the greater upside because of his unique skillset and size combo.

    If these brothers get drafted there will be a power struggle between euroballer and Rotela over their nationality

    aka

    Too Greek for the NBA vs Too African to Guard Lebron

      Lol, to be honest they got selected from the 2nd division to play in the all star game so they must have some talent, I think with more exposure the younger brother Giannis can be very good in 3 years, NBA, I don’t know…but Biyombo made it….

    It was said that at the all star game the coaches wanted to see what Thanasis’ vertical was. The report is they measured it at 43″.

    things to remember:
    Is a all star game, nobody plays defense
    its the Greek league, c’mon its not the Euro league, its not the NBA D league, its not as bad as the Philippines league but still. Players are Players, but against weak completion sometime average players look good. we will see.

      What the hell do you mean it’s not the D-League? Are you claiming the D-League is better than the Greek League? If you are, you are out of your freaking damn mind.

      Greek League is VASTLY SUPERIOR level to D-League.

      Seriously, stop doing drugs.
