Without stressing but not pulling with his performance, Panathinaikos AKTOR did the… job at its premiere Euroleague against the Alba Berlinas it prevailed 87-77 in the “Uber Arena”.
This match was the official debut for him Chedi Osman and him Lorenzo Brown. And if the latter, who trained with the team, seems more “harmonized” with the whole, the Turkish forward shows with picture that he will still need some time to show his (undeniable) quality on the court.
However, there is one phase in the match that highlights one of the key elements in his game. Osman. His ability, that is, to run into surprises and give in this way easy points in his team.
With her Alba to be close to 4 points and have the offense, Olinte goes up for a 3-pointer and misses. Before the ball even lands in the hands of a player, o Osman has started running at speed towards the opponent’s basket. THE Lorenzo Brownsees him and throws the ball to him, resulting in an easy layup that ended the home team’s run.
Of course, many may comment that this movement of the Turk towards the other side of the field, while the rebound was not yet secured, might have brought an imbalance to his defense Panathinaikou in case Alba renewed its possession.
However, it is clear from the shot that Osman can barely see the racket 1 player from the Germans and 3 from Panathinaikostherefore he recognizes that the chances of losing the rebound they are minimal and he takes the risk of starting early transition.
Such moves, although they seem like details, are a key element of the player that Ergin Ataman can “build” on. Throughout his career, Mr Osman he has shown a great talent for insinuations, and when this begins to be done with automationswill offer many easy points to Panathinaikos.
