Hines-Olympiakos: I thought he had a lot to drink – Basketball – Greece
THE George Dimitropoulos with his eyes Kyle Hines.
The loss of the famous manager has caused sadness in the field of sports and among those who spoke about the unpleasant news was the American center.
In fact, the 35-year-old ace shared through social media a story from the time he was playing in Bamberg.
“I met George for the first time in Vamburgi. We had won the German championship and had the customary party. He was at the bar and introduced himself to me as Octagon’s Greek representative. Then he told me that I will go to Olympiakos next season. At that moment I thought to myself, this guy has had too much to drink, I have to drink what he’s drinking too, because there was no way Olympiacos would sign him next season.
But two months later, I was playing at Olympiakos. This was George. He made the impossible possible. During the next two years in Greece, George treated me like family. Truly a unique man. He will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace,” he wrote Hines on twitter.
