Manolopoulos: “Panathinaikos and Olympiakos showed that the National is above all”

In the presence of his players Panathinaikos and his Olympic in the games of the National Basketball Team with Turkey stood the Sotiris Manolopoulos in his statements on public television and the show “Jabol».

The federal coach admitted that this event “raised” the National team quite competitively, pointing out that with their move, the two “eternals” clearly showed that the National is above all.

“As for the matches with Turkey, it is a huge success of the administration that we had players from Olympiacos and Panathinaikos. Both teams showed in practice that the National is above all. They gave us first-class players, with a very high basketball IQ and quality characters. All the children who came to the two “windows” gave their best and I thank them. Everyone tried their best. They put the National above themselves. The National team put its soul on the floor to get the results and the EEC administration will make every effort to have the best Greek players in the summer “said Manolopoulos who regarding the position of the team added:

Now the National is in a good scoring situation after the match with Belarus and the two victories with Turkey in the last “window”. We can have aspirations for a good course in the qualifiers and qualification for the World Cup “.



Finally, he stated: “Last November we were dealing with new data, mainly in the administrative part. In any case, everyone tried their best. We had a bad result with Great Britain. It was not an easy match. Some key British players play as foreigners with high contracts in other countries. Personally, I had a coronavirus at that time and I was not in any stage of preparation. “In the match against Belarus, we were with our backs to the wall, but we did it.”
