THE Kruslav Simon he had an excellent career on the EuroLeague, reaching the… Promised Land twice and consecutively at the top of the competition with the shirt of Anatolou Efes (2021, 2022).
The now 39-year-old Croatian forward… is making his final mark in his homeland and in a second division team. Speaking to “Basketball Sphere”, he referred to, among other things Ergin Ataman with whom he had collaborated in Turkey, while he gilded his regional line Panathinaikos AKTORstressing that the possibility is the best in the history of the Euroleague!
In detail what he said:
For Ergin Ataman: “Ataman is very strict. If you nominate yourself, you will compete for 30 minutes, regardless of your name. That’s how it works, there’s no bias, only value-based decisions.”
For Matias Lessor’s injury: “It’s a huge blow to their goals, despite the fact that they remain a Final-4 team. Yurtseven can cover the attacking part, but Lessor is the soul and driving force of this team. He is irreplaceable. Brian Dunston had a similar role during his time at Anadolu Efes and was a key point in the structure of the team.”
For the region of Panathinaikos: “Slukas, Nunn, Brown and Grant probably make up the best guard line in EuroLeague history.”
