THE Olympic faced in the previous matchday of the Euroleague Effects in SEF, getting a big win with a score of 76-70 and continuing his excellent run this season.
One of the players of the Turkish team, Chris Singletonmade statements to BasketNews, where he mentioned both the specific match and the general course of Piraeus, making special mention of George Bartzokaswith whom they had collaborated with great success in Kuban locomotive.
The American’s statements in detail:
For the defeat against Olympiakos:“That’s life, it was just a game and Olympiacos is a very good team, with an excellent coach. Vezenkov hit some big shots. We didn’t perform in the first half, but we had a chance to win this game.
When you’ve lost, like Olympiacos did to us last year, you’re obviously still “thirsty”. Everyone knows their role, everyone tries to do the little things, get into the rotation and help the team. That’s what we’re trying to do too, but we’ve had a lot of ups and downs. I wish Olympiacos every success.”
For Bartzokas: “I’ve always said he’s a coach the players want. He is one of the most accessible coaches for all players. He knows when you need time off and he knows when you need to pull yourself together. He is strict at the same time, he has many demands. He wants it his way, and he’ll let you know when things aren’t going well or if you’re playing poorly. He is very expressive and you will understand him, he does not hide his emotions. He is very genuine. You can’t say that about other people.”
