Femerling on sport-fm.gr: “A Panathinaikos-Olympiacos final will be epic”

Walking out of Uber Arena on his eve Final 4 we fell upon Patrick Femerling. And how can you… miss a 2.15m figure. anyway? So, we didn’t miss the opportunity to ask him about the Final 4. And although the German veteran center didn’t want to hurt any Greek, having played from two years in Olympic (2000-2002) and Panathinaikos (2004-2006) winning titles with both, he did not hide his desire to see a Greek final in Berlin. Even if he is worried about… disturbing the peace in the city in the presence of thousands of Greeks and Turks.

“I will definitely enjoy it, the emotions will be very strong. Panathinaikos and Olympiakos are here, Fenerbahce’s friends will also come… It will be a bit dangerous for the people of Berlin, I think… I won’t tell you who will get it, because it will cost me my head (laughs)“, answered the now 49-year-old Femerling to the question about his prognosis.

As far as which team do you support? “I really enjoyed the time I played in Greece. I would hurt people’s feelings if I said anything. It will be great if Olympiacos and Panathinaikos make it to the final. It will be one of the most epic finals in EuroLeague history. But even if Fenerbahce goes through it will be good, Sarunas is a good friend of mine. I really do not know“, were his words.

He won the Euroleague in 2003 as a Barcelona player. Who does he see as MVP in this tournament though? “Good question… It’s a tough one. Who would you choose? I really do not know” replied the noble giant.
