Tsakalidis

["Stathis Avgoustiniatos" <stathisa@email.msn.com>]

I have not watched Tsakalidis play much as I've left Greece many years ago, but I'm
following the Greek League pretty closely and my undersatnding is that you should
not expect any miracles from him.  I'd say that the chances are much higher than 50-50 for Tsakalidis to prove just another stiff for NBA standards.  He is probably not better than Nesterovic or Rebraca.  He's had good coaches until now, and given that he started playing basketball at a late age he should have room for improvement.  But he's just a project and I would certainly not call him starting matterial at this stage of his career.
