The statements of Giorgos Bartzokas in detail:



For the match: “We wanted to be serious, to divide the time and let all the kids play and of course because the stadium was filled with our fans and Apollo’s fans we wanted to show seriousness. I think the game was enjoyable for the people. From there, the first phase of the championship is over, there is the 2nd and 3rd phase this season. We will look, as always, to be serious in all competitions and see where we will go until the end”.

On the situation of Petrusev and Walkup: “Yes, I think Petrusev will miss some of the remaining EuroLeague matches. Things are going well with his treatment. It was nothing serious. Walkup just rested today because his leg was very swollen for the past few days. Petrusev will not play in the first match (against Partizan), but I hope he will be in earlier than expected.”
