The Insider Documentary Series: Guardian of a Legacy

The men who built Panathinaikos Athens into the most successful EuroLeague club this century and the team captain who is carrying on their tradition, Nick Calathes, are together at the heart of Guardian of a Legacy, the latest entry in the Euroleague Basketball Insider Documentary Series.
Pavlos and Thanasis Giannakopoulos, who regrettably passed away within the last year, wrote a story of excellence as they guided Panathinaikos to six continental titles, five of them this century. Calathes returned to his grandfather's homeland to win a EuroLeague title with Panathinaikos and learn from the Giannakopoulos brothers about the family values that led to greatness.

All this great personalities, Giannakopoulos brothers the legendary presidents, Obradovic & Ittoudis as coaching staff, Diamantidis, Alvertis, Calathes, Bodiroga, Dominique Wilkins and many many other great players. It's a honor to be fan of this team which gave us so many happy moments in our life 💚☘️

[@nikitaskafantaris8626]

Diamantidis when asked if he misses playing : "Nah, I don't miss it"
Such a rich career. Every possible title, so many broken records, the dream player of every coach, how many players have scored thanks to him, how many times he took the ball to shoot that final shot and "steal" the game. I have never seen any player in Europe that I would trust him more with the ball in his hands.
May you enjoy your family and your life now "Mitsos", you deserve it !
