He's a winner and a patriot in the most truest sense. Every summer he played for the National Team of France and in 2013 he won the FIBA Eurobasket and followed up in 2014 with a NBA championship playing for the Spurs in a memorable playoff run.  Today, Boris and me talked not only about basketball. We spent quality time together during the podcast and explored our interests of travel, photography, food as well as coffee & wine regions...plenty of delicacies. We also dove into topics such as expectations from Assistant Coaches, emotional balance and his approach to life & basketball in general as well as the summer of 2013. How he went from losing the NBA Finals to winning the Eurobasket with France and winning the NBA Finals in 2014, all within 12 months...what a ride this was, please join us!
