His message Ataman for Partizan-Panathinaikos AKTOR.
The Turkish coach spoke shortly before the departure of the “clover” for Serbia and mentioned the elements his team must have in order to reach victory on Thursday (30/11, 21:45).
“We know it’s a very difficult seat. It is important how we keep our strategy on the floor. Partizan is a very good team with Zeliko. He had some problems in the last matches with injuries, but against us a very important player like Pander will play. To have no serious injury problems before the match and to fight during the game“, the experienced coach initially stated.
Regarding the difficult matches that follow, he emphasized:The team plays offensive basketball in OAKA, tries to run. Now away from home maybe we have to control the pace more and go to a lower tempo. If you want to finish in the top four, in the top six, away matches are very important».
Regarding the feud with Obradovic, he commented: “Big challenge for Panathinaikos fans because Zeliko has a long history with Panathinaikos in the Euroleague. Zeliko is on… another level with many titles. We fought in Turkey in the matches of Fener with Efes and Fener with Galata. Now I am in Panathinaikos and he is in Partizan. A new situation. We will give our best. Coaches are very important, but players win or lose matches».
