THE Mars welcomes him Olympic on Sunday afternoon (07/02, 17:00) for the postponed match of the 11th game of the Stoiximan Basket League.
Through the personal blog he maintains in ESAKE, the Olivier Hanlan, referred to his murder Alki Kampanou, stressing, among other things, that the whole society and the sports world must keep alive the name of Mars’s 19-year-old friend.
Details of what Olivier Hanlan said:
“I want to start with an event that has overshadowed every sporting activity. Yesterday we visited the place where Alkis was killed. The emotion was great, as was our grief. For several years I have been playing in different countries and sports bring people closer. Not all fans and fans are like that who did this evil.
It is tragic that a young person loses his life in this way. I see that all of Greece shows its support for Alkis’s family. We have to keep his name alive and play for him.
We have before us the match with Olympiakos. You are always impatient when you face such a good team. It is one of the best teams in Europe, with a very good presence in the Euroleague and is in first place in Greece.
We prepared all week, with different defensive and offensive tactics. I am ready for this match, as are my teammates. We will miss James (Kelly), but we have to face it and stick to the coaches’ plan for the match.
Olympiacos has great depth, full of bench. He has very good shooters who can “open” the field. They have the offensive rebound as a weapon and we have to be very careful about that.
I want to say that we are all on the side of James Kelly. Family always comes first. We want everyone to be well, let alone the people we play with all season, we go to the “battles” together.
It is very good that the team allowed James to return to his homeland to deal with his family problem. I hope to have him with us again soon. But the good of the family always comes first “.
