Real Madrid

How would you define yourself as a player?

I try to be a complete player. I like to do a bit of everything; offence, defence... I don’t try to do just one thing. I like to help the team out.

You played with Gran Canaria for one year. Do you think that experience will help you adapt to Real Madrid?

I still have memories from that year; it was very important in my career. The Spanish league is very good and very tough. I kind of know what to expect.

How do you feel about joining now?

Well, I’m a little nervous because it’s a little late in the season, but basketball is basketball and it works out.

Do you think it’s possible for the team to win one title?

Yes, it’s very possible. We are in a good position both in the ACB and in the Euroleague. We’ll just have to take one game at a time. Both are definitely possible; this team is good enough to win both titles.

You played for Panathinaikos and now you’ll play for Real Madrid. What’s the difference between both?

They are similar and different at the same time. They are similar in how big both clubs are. Their styles are different. Spanish basketball is based more on running up and down the court while in Greek basketball is more of a half-court game. I’ve played in both leagues and I think I can adjust.

You’ve played in Vistalegre with Gran Canaria and Panathinaikos, so you know the atmosphere there. Do you look forward to experience it as a Real Madrid player?

They have great fans. They were great last week against Maccabi. I’m looking forward to this as well.

What would you like to say to the fans?

Winning is the most important thing for me. I’ll do whatever I can to help the team win.
