It was fair, it was done: Olympiacos brought Maccabi to its knees with a three-pointer and a five-pointer by Printezis!

This was correct: O George Printezis hit the floor again, on the night that his shirt was retired at SEF and gave the victory (84-83) to Olympic in a friendly match with Maccabi.

The club flag was flown onto the pitch at 4:45 before the finale of the match for… Last Dance and made sure to put his signature on it.

Again… he introduced himself to the world Sasha Vezenkovwho wore the red and white again and with him Shaquille McKissick they were the best for Giorgos Bartzokas’ team.

The match

Olympiacos started with Vildosa, Dorsey, Peters, Vezenkov and Wrightwhile Maccabi with Blatt, Lloyd, Randolph, Gabriel and Sorkin. THE Vezenkov… he was reintroduced to Olympiakos friends, opening an account in his 2nd term at Piraeus with three points (3-0). Olympiacos took a 5-3 lead again, but Maccabi rallied to make it 5-9, with Piraeus responding with four quick points from Vezenkov and Milutinov (9-9). THE Bulgarian ace he even made it 11-9 from close range.

The guests they went on another run as Cohen hit a basket from close range to make it 13-18 with 1:33 left in the 1st period. This was followed by a reaction from Olympiakos who found a rhythm offensively, with Milutinov bringing it to 17-18, while McKissick with a three-pointer, gave the “red and white” lead (20-18).

Maccabi entered the 2nd period hotter and with Lloyd in front, found at +4 (20-24)while he then escaped to +10 (20-30) with the former Monaco guard. From Vildosa’s three-pointer (23-30), Olympiacos stayed in touch with the score, but also with Milutinov’s basket (25-32), as well as with Vezenkov’s three-pointer (30-36) which roused the stadium. The former NBAer was the point of reference in the attack of Piraeus and from close he made it 32-38 shortly after. Olympiacos couldn’t get a rebound and persistent Maccabi made it 32-40 with the athletic Rivero scoring from close range. However, Barzoka’s team was able to pull back somewhat with four points from Vezenkov. From surprise for 34-40 and from 2/2 shots for 36-40.

Sorkin got off to a hot start in the 2nd half and form 36-42 from close range, while Dorsey reduced with a three-pointer (39-42), as did Vezenkov then (41-44). Gabriel took action and kept Maccabi at a safe distance (42-48) and Lloyd sent them to +12 (42-54). Milutinov first (44-54) and McKissick next with goal-foul (47-54) they gnawed the difference. Maccabi pulled away again, with Peters, however, shooting from outside 6.75 (50-59) and McKissick cutting it even further with a layup (52-59).

Closer to the score was the 4th quarter. Initially, the Blatt hit for 60-64but McKissick again marked the counterattack (60-64) and with Mitrou-Long executing for three (65-66) and Vezhenkov having 2/2 shots, Olympiacos overtook (67-66). McKissick was the permanent problem for Maccabi’s defense and with another goal-foul he sent Piraeus to +4 (70-66) and Vildosa at +6 (73-67). Maccabi didn’t give up either with Lloyd he has found a terrific rhythm in the final stretch he overtook (79-81) with the former Maccabi ace executing from the perimeter. Dorsey responded in kind (82-83), but the spotlight couldn’t help but fall on Printezis in the end. The legendary ace of Piraeus with consecutive fakes executed for the final 84-83, as in the end Maccabi was wrong in an attempt by Yokoubaitis in defense of Dorsey.

The quarters: 20-18, 36-40, 60-62, 84-83
