#34 Theodoros Papaloukas - The Importance Of Making Mistakes The Benas Podcast
-
- Basketball
"Theo":
Theo had an illustrious 18year long career in Europe and is well-regarded as one of the best guards of all time in Euroleague. Theo won two Euroleague titles with CSKA ('06 & '08) and has plenty of individual awards to show for, most notably Euroleague MVP in 2007, Final Four MVP in 2006 and many more.
Theo also enjoyed a very successful National Team career with the Greek National Team when he lead his nation to becoming Eurobasket champions in 2005 as well as runner-up in the World Cup of 2006.
Today's conversation turned philosophical very quickly and circulated mostly around what it takes to raise good basketball minds and not necessarily basketball players. Lots of reflections on what he saw throughout his career, what lessons he drew from it that help him run his Eurohoops Academy and empowering kids to not be afraid to make mistakes. We also touched on how he watches games and what he looks for the most. Retirement was also a topic, what helped him take the next steps in his life and moving on to 'the next thing'.
