Bartzokas: “I’m not happy, there were five minutes when we were completely indifferent”

Complaints from his players Olympiakou because of the performance and especially the will they (didn’t) show against Karditsa has Giorgos Bartzokas. “We should have been more compact, more consistent and had forty minutes of good play“, emphasized the experienced technician, referring to indifference from time to time on the part of the “red and whites”.

In detail what he said at the press conference:

For Karditsa: “I want to congratulate Karditsa, for the court, for the atmosphere, for the organization of the club… Teams like Karditsa deserve to play at the highest level of basketball. Apart from that, I must say that they have a very good team, very serious. He performs very well offensively and defensively. Unfortunately, he had the misfortune to start with a very difficult schedule playing against Panathinaikos, AEK and Olympiakos, however, I am sure that he will achieve many victories, some of which no one will expect».

For the performance of Olympiakos: “As far as we were concerned, there were two aspects… For about twenty minutes we were serious, we executed well and got differences, but there were five minutes when we were completely indifferent to what we have to do in the game, we got carried away in frivolities, in mistakes and we were sluggish in two sides of the field. If we thought about the schedule ahead of us, where we have 4-5 difficult matches in a row, bad… The philosophy that wins in basketball is to approach the game you have with the seriousness that an organization like Olympiacos requires. In general we have shown that we are satisfied with winning by 20 points and leaving, whereas that is not exactly the case. I’m not happy with how we played. We should have been more compact, more consistent and had forty minutes of good play».
