Peter van Paassen is one of Holland's most accomplished basketball players.

MyGuide Amsterdam and the Dutch national team reap the benefits of his excellent play in the low post.

Peter also has a good sense of humor.

You'll probably chuckle when reading the response the 29-year-old gave when FIBA Europe asked him about his most embarrassing moment ever on the basketball court in  "24 Seconds with Peter Van Paassen".

FIBA Europe: Peter, tell us what you first  think about when you wake up in the morning.

Peter van Paassen: I need to make some tea.

FIBA Europe: Where is the best beer found, in Holland, Germany or Belgium?

Peter van Paassen: I don't think you can go wrong in any of those three countries, but I am obliged to say Holland, of course.

FIBA Europe: Do you have a favorite football team?

Peter van Paassen: AZ Alkmaar.

FIBA Europe: We're always intrigued to see players listening to music before games. What do you like to listen to?

Peter van Paassen: I don't listen to music right before games, but I listen to a lot of Arctic Monkeys and Red Hot Chili Peppers in my car.

FIBA Europe: Peter, tell us what your favorite meal is: starter, main course, dessert, drink.

Peter van Paassen: Starter: Buffalo Chicken wings. Main Course: Canneloni. Dessert: Chocolate cake. Drink: Ice water with a slice of lemon.

FIBA Europe: Who is the best basketball player you have ever competed against?

Peter van Paassen: Dirk Nowitzki

FIBA Europe: What is your most embarrassing moment ever on the basketball court?

Peter van Paassen: As a junior I once had to play a game with shorts that were three sizes too small. I looked like I came straight from the seventies.
