Ataman: “Players like Nan find at some point – important to win matches that you don’t play well”

With a big match from Kostas Sloukas and winning a shot from Centric Nan, Panathinaikos got a huge victory with a score of 91-90 against Fener at the “flaming” OAKA and shouted he was here.

After the clash, the Ergkin Ataman spoke at a press conference on what they judged the victory in favor of his team, the risk of keeping the Nan in the parquet with 4 fouls all over the fourth quarter, the possibility tall and the next match with the Efes.

In detail what he said:

“I think it was a great game for those who saw it here and on television. But I’m not excited about the basketball we played. We had opportunities to get away, but we made mistakes, we easily lost shots and three times we fouls for three shots. We didn’t find a way to lock the game, even in the finale when we were at +5 we got some sophisticated shots and gave them the right to return. Eventually, we were lucky enough to make a unnecessary foul on Nan and got the victory. It’s important to win these games, but we didn’t play good basketball. Whatever the case, we have defeated Fener twice and that is very good for us. “

For Nan: “Players like Nan at some point they find a way to score and do it, so I kept him in while he had 4 fouls. I talked to him, I told him to be smart and not to make another foul. While until the fourth period he had only 4 points, in the end he put on big shots and helped us get the win. “

For the performance of Gambriel and Mitoglou and the possibility of a new addition: “I think every day there will be better, there is no time now to think of a new addition. We have a very important game on Thursday with Efes. We will focus on Efes with the existing roster and then see what we will do. “

For Efes: “Efes very dangerous, defeated Real today. It is not important for us who we play, but to win all the home games. It is very important for us to keep a good place for the playoffs and to stay on our goals. Not to underestimate Efes, the team is a very dangerous. Our fans need to create a similar atmosphere on Thursday, the world is very important for us. “
