    IMO vspan is not suitable to a NBA team, but it's not because he is not good enough, it's because of the playing style difference between NBA clubs and FIBA teams. Most of the FIBA teams play team basketball, while NBA teams play star basketball, This is the main reason he can't fit in here.

    IIRC, a year ago, when he just arrived in Houston,some local reporter asked him how he would adapt to the american style of basketball. He replied with something like "it's still basketball" with confidence. Guess he was wrong about that.

    Spanoulis blames the coach for not playing him more by reminding him that he was the Papaloukis of the NBA.
