My Take
Antanas Sireika earns my respect because he thrived in Lithuania, a country where basketball is practically a national religion, moving from player to coach with real staying power. Being named an honorary citizen of his hometown Šiauliai in 2003 speaks to a bond with his community that few public figures ever achieve. He was never the spotlight star, but I would rather applaud the steady builder who quietly develops a country's treasures. That is a life well spent.
