Little curiosity: Frye praised in Poland 

Post#1 » by NiGhtWiSh » Wed Mar 2, 2011 9:33 am

Polish biggest sport review Przeglad Sportowy made today an up&down's barometer for last couple of days.

The UP is given to Channing Frye for Pacers&NJN game winners.

The DOWN is for norwegian world champion in ski-running, who lately finished 34. at World Championships in 15 km run.

So, you can see the impact that Marcin have on the Suns around the world :) The rumor is really big. Suns are gaining fans in Poland, from what I can see.

thats great though, international players bringing in fans to the NBA is great for the NBA.

Kulczyk, Solowow, Czarnecki, Solorz, Krauze and some others, as well as many grey zone milliarders - they are able to buy any franchise in the world.

But only Krauze is interested in bball - he was a player many years ago. He owns an Euroleague top16 franchise - Sopot, and pays for polish bball federation, too. Well known players from Sopot were or are f.ex. Qyntell Woods, Dan Ewing, Mustapha Shakur, Mike Wilks, Travis Best, Gary Alexander, Drew Barry, Pat Burke, Todd Fuller, Jerrod Mustaf, Jeff Nordgaard, Ruben Wolkowyski, George Zidek and many others...

Others are not so interested in sports, unfortunatelly.

There was in Poland another legendary franchise, the best in history - Slask Wroclaw. They are in rebirth-mode now, the last owner closed franchise some years ago... Slask used more Euro-players then US-imports. Best known US players of Wroclaw in the past years are: Keith Williams (not so known in US maybe, but a legend in Poland), Michael "Animal" Smith, Charles O'Bannon, Lynn Greer, Sean Marks, David Vaughn, Acie Earl, LaBradford Smith, Rashid Atkins, Derrick Phelps, Dean Oliver, Zendon Hamilton, Harold Jamison, Michael Wright, Michael Hawkins, Orlando Smart...

In Poland played former Suns, too, in franchise of Pruszkow: Oliver Miller & Richard Dumas :) Miller was so ugly fat that his ass was on 2 or 3 chairs on the bench :))))))


Ooops, i forgot about Fred Vinson who was really great at Wroclaw. I think he's now a assistant coach in NOH, helping young players to settle with NBA and big money :)
