In the character he has in his game Kostas Sloukas stood after the victory of Panathinaikos AKTOR over Partizan The Ergin Atamanwhich also referred to differences with rival Euroleague teams.
What he said in detail at the press conference:
“It’s important to win a game on a day that isn’t a basketball match party. We didn’t prepare well these days after the Monaco game. In eight days and we had a lot of problems with injuries and with viruses and we kind of lost our concentration. We haven’t had a difficult game during this time.
I saw this mostly in the first half. We had a chance to make a difference in the game, but we lost our concentration and immediately Partizan came back into the game. The other three periods were a very tough game, because we know that Partizan plays very hard and aggressively and is a good defensive team. But in the last period we played better defense, hit the pin and roll and maybe we didn’t play great basketball today, but we again showed the character that we have and especially Slukas, who in the last period showed the character that he has. With his points and assists he set the stage on fire and we won the match. Very important win for us.
Of course we talk before the game about the differences. Especially with the teams we lost in the first round and we want the difference. And today was one of those cases. And we go to the next with Maccabi”.
