As far as the racing is concerned, George Bardzokas will not have at his disposal Thomas Wokhapwhich continues to be suffering from discomfort in the middle, and normally in the dozen is expected to find Vildosa, Fal and McCisic. Evans and Wright are steadily outside.
“The talent of Efes and the depth of her roster is at the highest level. In my opinion, for Final 4. Just some injuries may have played an important role. At the moment their momentum is very good. They scored 110 points with Milan and the reason is not only that Mirotic was missing, but that they play very well, they work very well and aggressively and defensively. The game is very difficult for us. In terms of absences, Wokapap will not fight tomorrow, all the rest despite their faces and incomplete preparation will be on the mission tomorrow. Vildosa, who made an individual yesterday, will train with the team today so he will play. Fal has one thing with his finger, but this is the situation, it’s a game we need to win, to keep in the high standings of the standings. “The coach of Olympiacos said in the run -up to tonight’s match.

We need to play firmly for 40 minutes, because we have to respond to Physicality, their athletics and their ability. We need to ensure that we have the ball every 24 seconds. So we must have excellent performance and make an effort as a team to play high for 40 minutes »the coach of Efes said on Olympiacos, Luca Banciwho remains to see if he will have at his disposal Larkin and Poliethe participation of which is doubtful.
