[sergi0ram0s23]

[isengartakosss]

I think first will finish usa after greece ,spain and germany

[Sid7Vicious]

usa,spain,greece,germany,china on the same group :D gonna be niiiiice

[Oblivion1821]

Ofc NBA is better....but you dont know what i mean..i say the Greek league forget the NBA..i talk about for europe. and ofc Hellas can take the olympics we have better defends and better attack...

[BIGPL4Y3R]

bro the league that come close to be compared to the nba is the greek league, the other leagues are a joke

[MDakaDean]

not true. The spain/argentinian league have way more better players.

[Oblivion1821]

MDakadean you are idiot in Greece we have the strongest and harder leage in europe look how much Greek teams have take the champions league (panathinaikos,aris,aek,olympi­akos...)

[MDakaDean]

Oblivion, Do you think Greece is going to win the olympics? since you say they are the strongest, and they've taken the champion league many times?

I'm just saying the NBA is better than Euro-Basketball. If you disagree, you are an idiot, or maybe you even live in europe. No offense.

[Bajifan]

He has a great situation. Of course he wants to be successful in the NBA, but if that doesn't work out, he practically guaranteed NBA money and other benefits in Greece, and has proven he can play their style of basketball. It would have been great if he could have stuck around here at OSU another year, but if anyone could afford the risk of leaving it was Kosta. I think it still worked out well. He's making $1,000,000 and has a coaching staff well geared towards fixing the weaknesses he has.

[kri19stin89]

the best player at 19 years!!!!he will be the best player in some years in the world!!go kosta!!

[Sid7Vicious]

kostas is a smart guy! european clubs like ours(olympiakos) offered him more than 2 million per year but he choose the best league (nba) for less than 1m dollars and with no standar spot in the 1st lineup :) good luck kostaraaaaaaaa!

[MDakaDean]

who da fuck wants to go to greece, if you want money you go to NBA, you have a chance to get a better contract in the NBA than euroleagues

[Krotidas]

LOL sarunas jaskevicius 12 milion euros(=18 million dollars) in greek team panathinaikos. Panathinaikos has the most europe leauge championships than any other european team. Panathinaikos played recently with HOUSTON rockets but they lost 101-73 i think. Well whatever i say NBA is not compared to any other league in the world. But major contracts can be

[MDakaDean]

Your right, you cant compare NBA to anything else, because they are at the top of the food chain its like this

NBA

EuroBall

NCAA

ABA

CBA

Developmental League

Why dont the Greek team offer big contracts to the best nba players like Kobe and LeBron?

[Sid7Vicious]

chill out mdakaden... nba rox..!

Greece has almost the same population as NYC.. contracts OFC differ u dumbass... NBA and EU leagues have diff rules too, nba is not "better" than EU basketball, its just diffrent~!~ or at least it used to be flashy.. also u said ""If you disagree, you are an idiot, or maybe you even live in europe. No offense"" wtf?? ur joking??

[MDakaDean]

I mean NBA is stronger than Euro League.

[MrJPara]

Man...the thing is that the Greek National team beat you two years ago. This means that the big difference that existed between the NBA (and furthermore US Basketball) and the Greek/European league has become much smaller

[MDakaDean]

Do you think the Greeks will beat the U.S. team in the olympics?

[MrJPara]

I 'm not saying it WILL happen... I 'm just saying that Greece have a great team and ARE capable of winning...

[rtmf]

MDakaDean

We did it once we will do it again.

Get yourself ready over there for another 100+ points.

[MDakaDean]

We'll See.

If Greek can even make it pass the preliminaries.

[rtmf]

Hahaha

Saying WHAT ??

Maybe this time , if you are good boys and eat all your vegetables, we will not hurt you a lot.

[Skittles658]

just so everyone here knows how dose Jerry feel about playing rookies? He dose'nt unless Kosta can be like an amazeing player.

[spyrpoul]

greek fucker

[ryn00]

money is all he want hes greedy 19 year old greedy teen

[olympiakos1974]

Greedy? he turned down an offer to play in Greece for 5 million per year plus a beach side villa plus a car of his choice, all tax free so that he can play where his heart tells him and that's the NBA, even though there's a chance he'll only play in the developmental league.

[adsfgtas]

omg we have a fucking genious here. make sure you stay alive because mankind needs you!!!

[papoulisaris]

gamiseta ola re ellinara

[fidelio2004]

einai paixtaras kai tha ta gamisei ola

[floridafan13]

the JAZZ are going to great next year when boozer gets tired or fouls out the we got kosta and paul milsap

[dakotas13]

boozers better than boht of them if he is on his game, but i really like millsap when he comes in

[fvertk]

We have perfect backups to our bigmen. Millsap is a poor-man's Boozer, and Koufos is a poor-man's Okur.

[Skittles658]

Leave Boozer alone he did'nt do anything wrong he just had a bad night.

[milatianos]

kostas is 19 years old.i hope he does well in utah as well as in our national team.GOOD LUCK KOSTA!!!!!!!!!

[mattman0033]

[Skittles658]

Utah got Kosta because of those damn canadians.

[ConcernedHuman]

[Skittles658]

The Jazz where going to pick Roy Hibbert but Toronto took him so we have Kosta.

[lakefootballfreak]

[songswithpics]

he lived in canton

his moms house is in my neighborhood =)

hes not an ogre a better word would be an absolute BEAST!!!!

[everydayasiannn]

[luskylusk13]

no warriors want brandon rush or Darell arthur not another slow big man. We dont want him

[smokealatte]

and with the 14th pick in the nba draft the golden state warriors select kosta koufus

[thehoomizon21]

suns baby

[Gauchoo1234]

He'll go to the Warriors for sure.

Close topic.

[honeyden]

Come here in Cavs!

[uberathlete]

I've only seen him in some videos. Can someone tell me about his post game?

[songswithpics]

hes more of an outside shooter

he's strong but not strong enough IMO in the post

but i heard that he got a lot stronger after leaving OSU

he's a very smart person and player, very down to earth and just a cool guy overall

[JDirvin5592]

come down to tornto baby!

[mrqueseyo]

ah hes alright didnt do that much casue greg oden was thre but ahh still wack

[spiltmilkgr]

i am from greece and pround to have him in our national team. "Koufos" means deaf in the greek language. Check out also - Sofoklis Schortsianitis - talented player of olympiakos.if he could only lose some.. kgrs

he had played against USA for Greece (but he's black). nice video p0lar

[expressMP7]

he must go to lakers to take odom's job

[duckman32001]

i hope the raps will get him. Rasho is about to retire soon.

[TJDBZ]

I think he'll go to the Cavs cause Z is getting old and he could teach him.

[landilost]

no man. he'll go to supersonics. they'll get sun's draft pick as a trade for Kurt Thomas.

Anyway, he's a great player. Watch this video

'Kosta Koufos MVP U-18 European Championship'

Amazing! He has the Duncan style shoot, he can shoot 3-points, he can do everything!

[thehoomizon21]

i hope suns get him
