Ataman: ‘We put up 100 points without our top scorer – I don’t think the team has a problem’

Panathinaikos AKTOR did not face the slightest problem against Maroussi in OAKA, overcoming the loss to Monaco, winning 100-78 and getting psyched up ahead of the upcoming “devil’s week” in the Euroleague.

After the end of the match, the coach of the “greens”, Ergin Ataman,

In detail what the coach of Panathinaikos said:



For the match: “We didn’t do any special preparation for this game after Friday’s match. Yesterday we had training for only one hour. I think we spread the minutes well, played aggressively and had good ball movement. Without our top scorer Nan, who was ill today, we put up 100 points. And that’s good”.

For the coming “devil’s week”: “Every time I think about the first game and not the second. So now I’m looking at the big game against Barcelona. We didn’t play badly against Monaco. I watched the match again. We controlled the last period, we were constantly in front of the score, but we made ridiculous mistakes and we were unlucky to win the game, because we made terrible mistakes in the last minute.

I don’t think the team has any problems. We need to play more aggressive defense and know that all Euroleague teams have great potential, so they deserve our respect. We have a tough game against Barcelona on Tuesday. I hope we will see the same atmosphere as in the Monaco game, which was incredible. Thank you to the sold-out crowd. We made stupid mistakes and lost, but now we have a new game against Barcelona. Then we will start thinking about Partizan”.
