Statements after the great victory of Olympiakos over Panathinaikos in OAKA for the premiere of this year’s Euroleague was made by Nikola Milutinovstressing that fatigue was not enough to give up!
In detail what the Olympiakos center said:
For Olympiakos’ victory: “It was a nice way to start the season, we had a lot of absences. We knew it would be a different game compared to the Super Cup. We knew they would be strong, they would play with their bodies. We knew we would have to give up fighting for 40 minutes. We knew if we stayed together we would win the game.”.
On how he managed to play so many minutes: “At one point it was difficult, my legs were cut. When overtime comes, I didn’t want to give up. I have tomorrow and the day after to rest, I wanted to help, I wanted to give everything to the team.”
Regarding the fact that he used to say that Olympiacos is not giving up: “This is something that is in the DNA of the team, Kostas is still a member from the old team, he pushes us every day, I am happy to have the opportunity to work here again.”
For Gosh and Walkup: “They were incredible. It wasn’t just them it was Alec and Kanan, every player gave something. You need all the players to win a game like this”.
