Giannis Sfeiropouos emphasized that Panathinaikos was superior and defeated Red Star justly, he focused on the many mistakes and the few assists given by his players, the few good defenses that reduced them to -8 and asked for more time for the team to find the pattern which he himself desires.
Analytically: “Congratulations to Panathinaikos for the victory. He played better than us and won fairly. For us, it was important to stay in the match until the end. We had points in the game where we got stuck. In attack we didn’t make the right decisions many times. We made 14 mistakes for 12 assists and that says it all.
You don’t win like that in the Euroleague. We brought the game up to 8 points at one point, but we didn’t play the two good defenses and attacks that we wanted. It’s the end of the first round of the Euroleague and we continue.”
On what the team needs to change faces: “The team is trying to get into my own pattern and play with my own thinking both in defense and in attack. One thing we need to improve is the duration. We need to have more duration in games both in defense and attack, but also from game to game.
We made two changes with players we wanted. Of course, they need time to get into the team, but both Topic and Gillespie will help us.”
