    I am sure that somebody of you you would wonder where I disappearred all this time! Here I am! Exactly where you found me, the last time. In Houston and in that blog, which give only me joy, because through this communication and the mails that you send me, you show me your love and your support.

    I know that all this time have been written a lot of things about me. Some of these are true, other little inflated, and some others unreal. You should know that I am well, in Houston I am super and the only thing that it is absent this moment it is the game, after as you know I do not have enough time of attendance in Rocket's games. And this, however, will be improved some moment.

    If there is patience all will become...

    In the Houston they all love me and they show this to me daily. The crowd, the Greeks that I have also known and with some of them we make also company, my teammates, the factors of the Rockets. I do not have any complaint. In the months where I am in America, I have adapted and also this moment I believe that I achieved that at 100%. I am not mentioned only in the games piece, where I really know at last, what exactly I should do on the floor, but also in the American way of life, which is very different from that of Greece...

    The thing that I have a little to at all playing time, stop to intimidate me. I am strong character and I have philoshophised in discussions with myself. A small obstacle is not capable to overwhelm you. On the contrary, behind him hides something big and this big some moment will come. The aim is not stuck in a problem, but to look at further and that's somewhow how I function in my life. Certain things are errand of God. That's why I'm saying that all here in the Houston are super this moment! The only minus is that I would like to play more and this is not absurd, but something that anyone in my place would want.

    I want to thank you very much for your mails. The persons in charge of SPORT 24 give me regularly the mails and I read it with great joy, because all are sincere and express your love. One of these days I will try to lit up also certain aspects of my relation with my coach, because some things have been misinterpretated and this is not right. We will talk in a new communication. Until then, be well. I, in any case, who I am far from Greece I fight in order to be well. And I have accomplished that...

    Vasilis...





    I try to translate it as good as I can with the babelfish and with my own knowledge in English. I hope to understand it! Especially the word "misinterpretated" I am not sure If I translate it correctly. If someone knows Greek too, please tell me If I'm wrong in translation.

    I already found a mistake in my translation!
    Not behind him. The correct is behind the obstacle

    Thanks for posting. Good to see VSpan is taking a more positive approach. Hopefully, he'll be getting some more playing time ahead of JL3

    Clearly, Spanoulis hates Sura. Another full entry, and no mention of Sura!

    No wonder Vassilis doesn't pass the ball to Bobby. :(

    Looks like Super V finally got what not to say in public! I hope he works out for the Rockets.

    He's mocking pryuen for making a big deal out of the fact that McGrady didn't mention Yao in his blog.

    No mention of Yao? He compared vspan to nash. Somewhere Yao is weeping.

    as we say round bout these parts

    the proof is in the pudding

    ANyone that actually believes what you type shoudl do a search for your posts and a search for NIKE's

    I GUARANTEE you will be found lacking.

    I dont waste much of my time defending others, they normally take care of that themselves, but I wont sit here and watch you talk crap about a poster that has forgotten more basketball knowledge than you have ever had

    f-in noobs :mad:

    We are all just noobs in a V-Span world baby !!!


    And thanks for the translation, but I would really like it if we could get a little better translation, I am having difficulty understanding some of his writings.

    Thanks,

    DD

    I love it the proof is in the hotdog. The last time I saw V-span play I don't remember, but he did get to handle the ball instead of spotting up for 3's he can't hit. Call it progress I guess The mustard is off the hot dog! :D :D

    V-Span did change his attitude and approach after the public crash.

    Now he cheered the players personally and was in the player circle to listen Coach JVG enter the circle when they had time-out. Looked like he is a insider now.

    I think they had better communication now. V-Span used to get into the game before JLIII last year. But It suddently changed and then V-Span complained about playing time to Greek media. I believed V-Span and coach had some misunderstanding in practice and V-Span overreacted at that time.
