THE Mike James is one of the top Americans to have ever competed in Euroleaguebeing the first scorer in the history of the competition.
In fact, in Greece we had the opportunity to watch… first hand his unparalleled talent, after he put on his shirt Colossus of Rhodes and his Panathinaikou.
The 34-year-old guard was invited to Best in Class by SKWEEK and he gave a very long interview, in the context of which he was asked to choose his favorite country among those he has fought for.
Somehow, he referred to Athens, stressing that when he first joined the “greens” he had gone too far with night life. At the same time, he said he was surprised that the Dimitris Giannakopoulos she never told him anything about this habit of his.
In detail what he said:
“A lot of people ask me about this and I usually don’t have a good answer to give them. I have positives and negatives to say about all countries.
Vitoria was miserable. I don’t know if it’s the worst city, but if you’re a 24-25 year old, newly divorced guy…There wasn’t really anything for me to do there. It was the worst. I don’t know if it’s such a bad city because it has some restaurants etc but when I was there there wasn’t even an English cinema. There wasn’t much to do to be honest. They get pissed off every time I say this, but it’s the truth.
I loved Athens, because I was 26 out of 27, single and there were so many things to do there. I think I overdid it at first. And I’m surprised that Dimitris Giannakopoulos never said anything. I remember I was over it and he came and said ‘Mike, you’re out every day’. But I was excited. So I really loved Athens.
Milan was also very nice. A little rainy. I also really liked Moscow. I don’t know how this sounds, but it was really nice there. Obviously I enjoy Monaco a lot too. Everything is a little calmer and quieter here.”
