With so many absences and so many injuries, the team showed character, especially when Olympiacos got a 10 point difference. We didn’t give up the game, we turned it around and were very close to winning. The match was in one possession. This team has character and fight. Don’t forget that Olympiacos was full while we were without Mirotic, Shields, Law, Baron and Ritchie».

On his apotheosis from the world of Olympiakos: “Thank you very much to the fans of Olympiakos. There is certainly excitement, I have been here for 25 years. This obviously means that we also did something good and offered Olympiacos».

On whether Armani can enter the play-ins: “You can always make it. Even in the 8th, because before this match we were two wins less than the 7th. With doubles, if you win both and some other teams lose, that changes and you can be close to the top 8 as well».

On whether Olympiacos can enter the play-offs: “There are still too many games. This was the 1st game of the 2nd round. The point is what everyone believes and what everyone can do. Every week these change. I think we have to wait for the last 5-6 games to say with more confidence what each team can do».

For Panathinaikos: “He’s definitely gotten a lot stronger. Compared to the beginning of the year, with the arrival of Nan he has become very good on the perimeter. Sloukas and Nan are also matching and they have found a rhythm as a team. As with all teams, time counts and it is more important to play well in the last 5-6 matches».

On whether there is a problem with the guards in the Euroleague: “There is a rotation of guards between the teams. This means that there are no new faces. Some years ago, I brought Lorenzo Brown from the G-League and I am very happy that he has stayed and is playing in the Euroleague. Teams don’t risk anything new. This depends, of course, on the coaches, the teams themselves, but also on what is available in the market at that moment».
