“It’s all about independence, and the freedom to pursue dreams without interference. The Lithuanians became independent after the Soviet breakaway and after the Berlin Wall came down. A lot of things were happening simultaneously in many of the Baltic States. The Lithuanians were now independent and had the opportunity to flourish and pursue their dreams in freedom. The 1992 Lithuanian Basketball Team really symbolizes a spirit of freedom to me, and winning the bronze medal was not only a victory in sports but also symbolized a triumph over communism itself. Independence means we have the freedom to succeed or fail as individuals, benefit and flourish from the fruits of our labor in a free enterprise system. In the free world you have independence. It’s all about freedom. You work together as a team, but at the same time have the freedom to excel as an individual within that team,” stated Speirs.
