"Il Poz":

Today's guest Coach Gianmarco Pozzecco is currently the Head Coach of Italy's senior men's national team. "Il Poz" started his professional player career in 1991 and went on to have a successful career on multiple levels playing for teams like Varese, Fortitudo Bologna, Zaragoza and others, winning 2 Italian Leagues and 2 Italian Supercups while also earning himself an Olympic silver medal in 2004 with Italy's fabulous run that summer.

In this episode, Gianmarco told me about his early beginnings as a player, dabbling between soccer and basketball before ultimately deciding to play basketball late and how hard it was to control him as a player from a coach's perspective. Gianmarco also told me about his lessons as an Assistant Coach and what he could take away for his next jobs as a Head Coach, as well as some lessons that players taught him while he was a young Head Coach.

Lots of good stories in this one, enjoy!
