Talk:Aris BC
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Congratulations! Excellent content.
i think that the part about the 1985 match between Olimpia Milano and Aris is uncorrect. Milan won cause it was the strongest team of Europe in that years, played also against NBA team loosing just for a bunch of points, and in few years won 6 national championship, 2 Eurocup, 1 Korac, 1 World Cup, and was runner-up other 4 times in the championship, 1 time in Eurocup and was the first club invited to play against NBA clubs as rapresentant of Europe.
so Olimpia won on +34 points not for something of dirty, but cause it was the strongest.
another prove is that this so "big" Aris of mid 80's won anything in Europe, and just at home.
"Much has been said about backstage scenarios that led to this result, but nothing has been proven" where? maybe on the local newspapers...dont' forget that playing basketball in that years in Greece was a pure hell, with tons of coins flying down on the fields over the heads of the players, and other not polite stuffs. the local newspapers were famous in whole Europe for the low level and for the uncorrect view of the sport, not as a game, but as a battle. and more, basketball in that years was a new entry in Greece, that never was at top level in Europe, so newspapers, fans and local players were not able to win, but also not able to loose!
[edit] Totally unencyclopedic for me
as it is written now, this article is really not in an encyclopedic style
let me just quote this as an example "Leadership of Lefteris Hatzopoulos quits, Efthimis Kioumourtzoglou is not longer our coach and ARIS is on God's will since those dramatic moments of the club took place. We have no money, but we 've got plenty of soul. Within two weeks, we beat all of the -considered- big teams of Greece (Olympiakos, paok, Panathinaikos and Aek), the two last ones in the Final four of the Greek Cup and we become winners of the 1997-98 Greek Cup. Mario Boni was about to leave us too before the Final-4 but he stayed cause he loves us, and he helped a lot in this tremendous effort. Then he moved in Roma as he couldn't stand it anymore either. Braveheart Aris continues with 8 players from now on."
