Impressive appearance from Larissawho “pressed” emphatically the very deficient AEK (82-65) for the 15th game of the Stoiximan Basket League and cleared with the stay.
Thessaly went up to 5-9, which upset and the difference with which they had lost in the first round of the Union. Leading for the winners are Maric (18 points, 12 rebounds), Green (16 points, 5 rebounds) and Hutson (12 points, 5 rebounds).
On the other, the “yellow-blacks” lined up without Pappas, Rautins and Angola, dropped to 6-8 and endangered their presence in the octave. Dedas was sent off, Hamer fought (12 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists).
The match
Despite significant shortcomings, AEK started the game stronger and “hitting” through the racket, gained a lead (5-12 in 6 ‘). Thessaly increased their speed in the final of the season and with a series of 7-0, approached a shooting distance (15-16).
With Tsairelis carrying his team, Larissa reversed the situation at the beginning of the 2nd quarter (25-22 in 14 ‘). The players of Takianos found a rhythm aggressively and went even further (32-27 in 18 ‘), while they closed the half with +4 (35-31).
At the start of the 3rd period he entered the equation Maric for the hosts, with the Serbian center setting up a κάτω party under the racket and bringing his team to +7 (44-37 in 24 ‘). Kouzeloglou and Petropoulos fought for the Union, trying to keep their team upright and reducing it to 56-50 in the final of the quarter.
In the 4th period, the Thessalians entered furiously and with Green running from the perimeter, they shot at +14 (66-52 in 32 ‘). AEK tried to reduce with Hamer fighting almost alone (68-60 in 35 ‘), but at that point he was overwhelmed with nervousness.
With Dedas and the “yellow and black” bench to receive consecutive technical penalties protesting against the refereeing decisions, Larissa was removed again (74-60 in 36 ‘) and cleared the case-victory, while in the final it reached up to +17 (82-65) overturning the difference with the which he had lost to the Union in the first round.
The quarters: 15-16, 35-31, 56-50, 82-65.
