He coached Panagiotis Giannakis in the national youth team. He held his first basketball seminar in 1964. He has attended 35 NCAA Final Fours. As an NBA scout, he helped send Kirilenko to the Utah Jazz.

Many years ago, he visited Elefsina at the invitation of Takis Vogiatzis, whose mentor he was. Today, at 75, the ever-young Th. Rodopoulos returned to teach us what love for basketball means and, with his wisdom, to put things into perspective.

Thank you, Coach. And thank you to everyone who, although it was the Sunday of a long weekend, 24 March 2019, set aside rest and entertainment to dedicate their morning to our guest.
