But no team will play so well at the same level from the beginning to the end of the year. All teams will pass belly. We have before us a period of time that we must return and become good again. We have before us the final four of the Greek Cup and very important games for the Euroleague, but also for the Greek championship. Through work and all together, we will succeed».
