PAOK faces Nimburg tomorrow in the Czech Republic (19:30) for the 4th game of the Basketball Champions League. “Dikefalos tou Vorras” is in the last position of the group with a record of 1-2, while the Czechs are second with 2-1.
In his statements on the site of the “black and white” OEM, the coach of the team, Aris Lykogiannis, referred to the importance of the match for the qualifying battle. At the same time, he focused on what his players must pay attention to in order to reach victory.
Aris Lykogiannis’ statements in detail:
For the game with Nimburg: “It’s a very important game. We lost by one point in the first match, in Thessaloniki. The game in general is important, as things have been shaped in our group. We have a day to train, discuss some things and tomorrow morning to turn our attention to the video to analyze them. The game is important and as such we treat it.
Nymburk is a well-tuned machine, it is a team with aggressive talent. They shoot very well, they know what they want to do on the field. The fact that we come from a negative result, helps in terms of our psychological part. The good thing about the consecutive games in Greece and in Europe is that you overcome the defeat faster “.
For what PAOK should pay attention: “It is important to have control over the opponent’s peripheral shot and through the defense not to give them the opportunity to shoot many free kicks. We also need to try to limit two Czech players, who did us a lot of damage in Thessaloniki, the playmaker Harding and Palyza, who shoots with more than 50% in the three-pointer in the tournament “.
