Bozikas: “We believe in the roster, we will only take a player if we see that there is a numerical problem”

In the event that the Olympic among others, George Bozikas was mentioned.

The direct partner of Giorgos Bartzokas spoke to Nova after the “double” of Olympiakos against Maccabi and answered the possibility of acquiring a player from Piraeus.

“I respect the opinion of the people and the journalists very much. But we are professionals here. We are not carried away by the surrounding atmosphere. Right now we have a roster that we believe in very much the way we built it. We think we have the best possible players. We had a lot of injuries that made it difficult and put pressure on us“, he initially pointed out and added:

“It needs to be understood that there is no player – no matter how good – who will come to a team and give them immediate solutions. We cannot expect someone to come and save us. We have to believe in the team, try and have support both internally and from the world. We will only take a player if we see that there is a numerical problem, that we need someone to give us rest».

Regarding the criticism of Olympiakos players, he pointed out: “I’m reading reviews about Sikmas, when he hasn’t played at all. Where does this criticism come from? Today you saw what he gave us, while he only had one training session. We know what each player gives us and where they can help us. Last year you asked me about Kanaan and if Dorsey is coming. You saw how Kanaan stayed both last year and this year and he is playing very well. Last year the same thing happened with Peters, who had the most difficult role in the Euroleague. This year he has found his role. I understand that people are impulsive, we are in Greece. But, we have to support the team in difficult times».
