To think they used to conquer entire empires. Now look at ‘em, wylin’.

I am just happy for him.

Why did you have to put a clickbaity title instead of just “Greek fans welcome Fournier in their own way” or something.
You sure he didn’t just leave the NBA because he hardly got any playtime?

Yeah I mean from his perspective I definitely get why he was inclined to goto Olympiacos over Washington lol.
A) Sit on the bench struggling for playing time on a team likely to struggle all year in an environment where there is zero enthusiasm towards you.
Vs
B) Go live in Greece for a few years, where they have a legion of fans super excited to have you where you’ll get to finally compete again, getting significant playing time and a big role on a top Contender in EuroLeague.
Kind of a no brainer for a guy at that stage of his career lol.

He’s that exited for playing time. Good for him.

He chose to leave because he didn’t get good offers in the NBA where he’d get playing time and a chance to compete. He literally said that himself.

I think being a 31 year old DND-CD on the Knicks and then closing the season out playing 18 minutes a game on a 14 win team is usually a good indicator of why a guy is heading to Europe.

Kuzma and Poole are great tank commanders, I don’t think Fournier will be missed

playing in Greece is probably better than playing for more than half of the teams in the NBA minus the money.

Because the Greeks wrote a bigger check?

What kind of money would he had been offered in the league? He’s been at the $17-18m per season for years and now is taking either 2 or 2.5 per season in Greece. What would he have got in the nba?

LOL like this man had a choice, what team was willing to put his no playing defense ass back out there.

Don’t ask what they are chanting hahahha. Epic

He has no idea of the level of profanity that is going on around him, and it makes it all that much fun.
As an Olympiacos fan, I can’t wait to see what Bartzokas (Olympiacos HC, and IMHO the best European coach right now) will cook this season.

Guys if you want to see a really cool highlight of Evan in Greece, just go to google image and search “Fournier”

I hope more NBA players will do this. It’s such a treat to watch the likes of Dwight, Cousins, and Lin ball out in my country even if it’s for just a short while

Same with Pat Bev. Mans like a king out there

He’s a bum anyways

Those Euroleague fans light fireworks and jump up and down and chant over some bozo inbounding the ball Lolol

Finally he can play actual basketball instead of the rigged/ carry/ travel/ zero IQ/ Iso-heavy highlight league. Euroleague is basketball peak.
