Nikos Galis | The Gangster 2016 ᴴᴰ 

Nice work amigo! Continúa con un buen trabajo con tu hijo.When your son grows up and becomes a basketball player which i hope tell him that Nick: In 1978-79 season was the third scorer in College NCAA Championship with 27.5 points average behind NBA legend Larry Bird. He has top scoring record 62 points (1981 Aris-Ionikos) Record 52 points in the Cup (1987 Aris-Panellinios) Record 57 points in a European game (Aris-Karera) Record 53 points with National Team (1986 Greece - Panama) Two in every five matches with Aris B.C, he scored over 40 points. Ηe has as career average with Aris B.C 37 points per game!!!!!! In 105 games (with Aris) has scored more than 40 points He won 11 times the top scorer award of the Greek Championship (all with Aris) He scored 30.5 points average in each match with the Greek National Team Has been voted endless times first in polls in newspapers & magazines as well as in polls of sports editors, such as: 1st basketball player in Europe, 10th athlete in the world for all sports! & 4 times best Greek athlete. And finally tell him what coaches and players said about him: Anestis Petalidis (coach): Mr you can write whatever you want. I do not care. Be careful though because one day you won't believe it. This athlete will prove that one can win the five. Michael Jordan: I didn't expect that I would meet such a great offensive player in Europe. Rud Harevain (coach): I know a way to stop Galis: To lock him in the hotel room! Sergei Belof (coach): I never expected that a player could win almost alone the National Team of the Soviet Union. Alexanter Gomelsky (coach): O Galis is the player of the 21st century. Boitsek Kraiofski (coach): I said to my players that will matchup the 4 players of ARIS made our plans fot them. For Galis lets do our prayer. Αntonio Diaz Μiguel (Coach) Stop joking.You brought Nick with you but you are hiding him! Right? I won't you to know that my favoutite spanish player is Juan Antonio San Epifanio Ruiz a great player that respected Nick!

Don't forget to explain that Galis would routinely squat with at least 330kg, had a 49" 400m and almost 8m long jump, run with 25kg vest, trained before training and after training and more.

The best athlete ever. Considering his height as well as his accomplishments against USSR and Yugoslavia.

Yes same, we also admire Spanish players. A player is a player, a musician is a musician, an architect is an architect. No need to only value people of they are from one nation. The world is a besutiful place is even better when we have open mind. I agree with you.

​@@vdLeo-je6osit is impossible to be an athlete and not respect your opponent. Because the value of your victory, depends on the worth of your opponent.

For sure him and Oscar true legends

Nick and Oscar Yes!!!!

Practically he was recruited by Celtics after uni and then had a risky doubtful injury befire firsr season and then with a good offer from Greece celtics agreed to let go since they though it could damage his career. They made mistake since Galis recovered.

Sorry but he looks so basic 😅😂🤣

​@@ML_1515you have no idea...

Pelé won 3 World Cups though. That's the biggest stage. Back then European Football didn't have all the players from all over the world, the Brazilian league was the best one, it had all of their players.

ΑΚΡΙΒΩΣ ΦΙΛΕ ΚΑΙ ΕΙΜΑΙ ΚΑΙ ΠΑΟΚ.....ΧΑΙΡΟΜΑΙ ΠΟΥ ΠΡΟΛΑΒΑ ΚΑΙ ΕΖΗΣΑ LIVE ΑΥΤΟ ΤΟ ΜΕΓΑΘΗΡΙΟ.....

Larry bird, dirk, John Stockton, Luka, Steve nash, nikola jokic, Pete, Kevin Mchale, bill Walton

@@paulhuang1694 ούτε στο μικρό του δαχτυλακι δε μπορούν αυτοί που αναφέρεις! Ο μόνος Ευρωπαίος αθλητής που μπορεί να συγκριθεί με τον Νίκο είναι μόνο ο Γιόχαν Κρόιφ κανείς αλλος

@spiritual lover II αν ο μπερτ ερχόταν στην Ελλάδα σε άλλη ομάδα την ίδια χρονική περίοδο με το Γκάλη πιστεύεις ότι έβαζε περισσότερους πόντους; Ούτε από τον Γιαννάκη δε πιστεύω να έβαζε! Τα νούμερα στα ντραφτ δε μου λένε τίποτα εγω τον Γκάλη τον έζησα από τη μέρα που ήρθε και ξέρω πολύ καλά τι σου λεω

As McAdoo has said, Galis did things that no player did in NBA 80s. He was unique, he had a unique geoup of characteristics. Very strong legs and very very strong core. I like to think that Celtics if not the injury would have they team they already had with Galis also. It had potential to be best team in history. 2 phenomena in same team which would complement its other from different positions, and the long range of Bird plus mid range of Galis plus rhe passes of both plus the drives if Galis , and both olayers required many plywers to guard them, plus plus plus

The best comment I' ve ever read about Nick Galis! Andreas I totally agree! Even mj was stopped in many cruical games in his glorious career, but Nick...was in a supernatural level against "giants" like Sabonis, Tkatchenko, Divac and other great players like Petrovic,Marchulionis, Kukoc, Paspalj, Dakouri, San Epifanio, Riva etc.... Just RESPECT. Great player and great personality.

Well said

20? εχεις ιδεα τι λες?

@@andreaspapadakis2602 ΣΤΑ ΝΤΟΥΖΕΝΙΑ ΤΟΥ 30 ΜΕΣΟ ΟΡΟ ΘΑ ΕΙΧΕ,ΣΤΑΝΤΑΡ....

Galis is 10 times better than Saras except for 3 point shot. Galis would average 28 points

Galis is like Wilt. He would average as many points as he decides to average, then one year, he might lead the Euroleague in assists. In fact, if you don't know, he does. Galis has the record for most assists in a european game with 24.

+stavros Mad Φίλε Σταύρο, καθότι "slow motion" δεν μπορούμε να καταλάβουμε αν όντως κάνει βήματα..

+stavros Mad έτσι φαίνεται στο video αλλά και έτσι να είναι, νομίζω πως τα δικαιούται

Υπάρχει ένα μικρό gather step. Δε γνωρίζω αν σφυριζόταν τότε. Πιθανότατα σήμερα να δινόντουσαν βήματα στην Ευρώπη. Στο NBA σίγουρα όχι. Οι κανονισμοί για τα βήματα ερμηνεύονται κατά το δοκούν από τις διάφορες λίγκες γιατί δεν είναι σαφές πως ορίζει ο καθένας το τέλος του dribbling. Είναι δηλαδή ενσωματωμένο το πρόβλημα και λύνεται μόνο με....εγκυκλίους.

όχι δεν κάνει βήματα.

Good point. Nowadays, after Yiannis came Jokic, abd they have been forced to relearn the game from european players. Basket is still a sport in Europe, not just a product, that needs dunks and threes all the time in order to sell...
