Sofoklis Schortsanitis "Big Sofo" Went Ballistic On The Crowd In Israel

[Andrew Wiggins]

Seriously? You still haven't figured out yet that I'm not a moron?

can't figure out something that isn't true

[Euroleague]

How come Sofo was marketed as the Euroleague Shaq but his career high is 12ppg ?

First of all, he was never marketed as any such thing. Unless some stupid NBA bullshit came up with it. ALL such nonsense ALWAYS comes from NBA in case you never grasped that.

Secondly, 12 points per game in the Euroleague for a center that gets double teamed or tripled teamed every single time he touches the ball, and there is no defensive 3 seconds rule, meaning that they can stay on you as long as they want, without the ball...........is pretty damn good.

So I'm not sure what the hell you are implying there. That's actually unbelievably dominant, considering the rules and the minutes played. That's almost impossible really, and I would guess he would never ever come close to those numbers again.

I mean he is basically triple teamed the whole game, and there is no defense 3 seconds rule. And he can only play limited minutes because of his size and foul trouble.

So 12 points a game is actually unbelievable, also considering he's a terrible foul shooter.

Yeah, I mean WTF.........if he averages like 8-10 a game that's a hell of a freaking lot of production considering his circumstance. So I'm not sure what you are implying there.

And it's not like you can use him much in pick and roll, or at all in pick and pop or something.

tl;dr

couldn't even make the clippers team when they were garbage. sofoscrub is trash

[ballup]

12 PPG. So amazing. It's amazing.

[Brokenbeat]

1. It's spelled Euroleague.

2. Israel isn't in Europe. It's a part of Europe in geopolitical terms. But it's not "in Europe".

3. The Israeli League isn't the Euroleague. They are two different leagues. Hapoel Tel Aviv isn't even in the Euroleague idiot.

There is no such team called Hapoel Tel Aviv in the Euroleague you moron.

4. You are clearly a mental midget.

Are you sure though?

[Jameerthefear]

Dwight Howard would average 50/20 in the Euroleague.

[Dizzle-2k7]

sofo looks huge. i would love to see him in the NBA, this is a quality thread idk why theres so many haters and negative people. i like seeing stuff like this in basketball..

LMAO @ that pu55y fan running away

Not 50,but 40/25 is not out of reach.

Euroleague is for scrubs.

[AintNoSunshine]

listen to yourself you sound like an 6 y.o. telling us how powerful a cartoon character is...

That's not a Euroleague arena genius. It's an Israeli League arena. Anyway, the guy with the glasses and the little kid.......I'm not sure if that's the assistant coach of the team and the 4 year old son mentioned in the article or not, but whomever they were, they learned their lesson......

Don't shout racist chants at Sofo. This is why I just laughed at that ridiculous thread here in this forum about Shaq punking on Sofo and that Sofo would just take it........you clowns have no clue what kind of guy Sofo is. He's big as hell, strong as hell, tough as hell, and mean as hell.

There has never been anything like him in the NBA. Nothing even close. Shaq would be put to the floor in a second if he tried to punk him. This is a 355 pound version of Artest.

NBA fans really have no clue how mean and huge this guy really is. I think it's the real reason he's never been allowed in the NBA. They are absolutely terrified of him because of stuff like this and the stuff he did at the Greece and Serbia brawl in 2010. The NBA wants no part of this kind of stuff.

That's the real reason Sofo isn't in the NBA. American NBA only fan clowns imagine the other reasons out of their own delsuions.

He looks like a little boy going against a grown man.

How many points did Olympiacos lose that game by again?

Oh yeah. At least they fared better than Panathinaikos when they bought their minor league team to the US for some good NBA beatdowns.

Here is a link with video of him being escorted out by security:

Here is a story in English:

Sofo attacked the stands of Hapoel

The 83-80 road win of Maccabi Tel Aviv over Hapoel Tel Aviv, for the domestic Israeli league, was marked by the unprofessional behavior of Greek center Sofoklis Shortsanitis. After the end of the game, Big Sofo attacked the stands of the home fans, as you can see in this report and video. According to Maccabi Tel Aviv

How come Sofo was marketed as the Euroleague Shaq but his career high is 12ppg ?

Because he's fat and black.

[Mrofir]

That wasn't a Euroleague game. It has nothing to do with the Euroleague. The Euroleague can't do anything to him.

I don't understand why there is so much hostility in this thread, but I just have to ask why we are talking about Euroleague games, and also I would ask, can the Euroleague do anything to Sofo?
