The readiness of both him and Olympiakos for the semi-final with Monaco and the challenge of winning the Euroleague, conveyed by Giannoulis Laretzakis speaking to his envoy News Bulletin 247 in Kaunas, Nico Zerva.
In detail, Giannoulis Larentzakis spoke to News Bulletin 247 and Nikos Zervas about:
-whether Sasha Vezenkov has treated them to the MVP award: “The truth is that not yet, but he has promised. He definitely will, he did last year too. He is a great success, he is my friend, I am very proud of him and I wish him the best».
-if they feel it as an opportunity for Olympiakos -having played the best basketball- to do something more: “We have indeed played the best basketball, we were first throughout the Euroleague, we were the most consistent team, tomorrow we have to play again our own basketball, our own style, the one that brought us to the first place. There is great anticipation, we are ready and I believe we will succeed».
-where he thinks the semi-final with Monaco will be decided: “Defense and rebounding, generally the pace of the game, will play a role. We have to be very focused for 40 minutes, not lose our mind for a single moment in the match and I think we have worked hard enough for that».
-if he is ready for a special mission (marking James, Lloyd, etc.): “Of course I’m ready, I’ve played before, I’ve marked these players again, I’ve had a taste of last year’s Final Four and I think I’ll try to do everything possible to get Olympiacos through and help myself».
