Panagiotis Kalaitzakis emphasized that Panathinaikos did not have the “one on one” against Maccabi after the departure of Nan, he found fatigue in the second half and they did not play a good defense against Boldwin and Brown, he stood by the injuries that occurred, he gave a signal for the continuously and did not want to dwell too much on his own performance.
Analytically: “My appearance was not accompanied by a victory, so it is deleted and has no meaning. We missed some baskets, since we also lost Nan and we didn’t have the ‘one-on-one’. We did a better second half, but we ran out of breath and defensively we didn’t limit Baldwin and Brown. We also lost a lot of rebounds.
We’re moving on. We have a lot of injuries. We didn’t have our two point guards, we also lost Nan, we didn’t have Manzouka and now we have to look at the next match against Apollon Patras.
That’s what we get paid for. Whenever my coach needs me, either for a minute or twenty, I have to give everything and, through the defense, rest some of the guys. Today I also got the attack, after Nan was injured and I played more minutes. In the end, we play basketball and we should be happy about it. Unfortunately, we lost, so we’ll look at the video and move on.”
