On the occasion of the Euroleague Final Four, Panagiotis Fassoulas gave a special interview, talking about his career as a basketball player, but also about the pride he felt because of his good performances.
More specifically, he was a guest on the couch of the show "Studio 4", where he first said: "Woe betide you if you didn't feel someone when 15,000 people are chanting your name on the pitch! Of course you do, and you feel even better when you're away from home and 15,000 people are calling you names. You say, I'm even more important to them. It's fine to be called names. Does anyone imagine that a player who is a championship player in football or basketball is really affected if he gets called names? Are we serious?"
Later in the discussion, Panagiotis Fassoulas commented on how he dealt with fame as a very good player:
"Is there a person who doesn't buy it? Are we serious now? We all bought it. I don't know how you land, we've been shopping since we were 17. So I don't remember myself not shopping, if I'm considered a shopper. I can't remember if I changed, it's 40 years ago that I started. We don't think we are prettier or better people, but I have done something that is important in my life."
