With excellent accuracy in three-pointers and several breaths in the basics, o Panathinaikos AKTORwon very easily in Lavrio 92-76 and maintained his unbeaten streak in Stoiximan Basket League.
The most pleasant news for the “greens” was his return Ioannis Papapetrou, who played after 92 days and stayed on the floor for 16 minutes, scoring 7 points. The Greek forward spoke about her difficult period absence of him but also for what he believes he can offer to the team, while he referred to the goals of the “clover”.
In detail what he said:
“I was counting them, they were difficult days. It was very difficult, everyone knows my love for the team. These things happen of course, some things you can’t control. I had to think positively, come back as soon as possible, I came even earlier so everything went as planned. Thanks to those who supported me. The leg is fine, needs adjustment. I miss games, minutes, breaths, strength. I feel good, I feel healthy. Today I felt 19 years old again. I revived. I was anxious. Logical and expected, I have to do proper recovery and training.
We have had a very good run, we have a positive sign, but no season ends in January. It’s early, we have to stay firm and chase home advantage as OAKA is this year. All three titles are open to us. We haven’t played our best basketball yet, we can play a lot better. Ataman has built from scratch, he has a whole new team. We had our ups and downs, but we gained stability and a base. From then on, we are constantly improving. Even now we haven’t played as well as we can, although we have shown what we can do.
I think I can help the team a lot, I can give things that the team doesn’t have. I was looking forward to playing, helping to achieve things.”
