The “red and whites” dominated from an early age against the “greens”, who almost did not appear on the floor.
The coach of the podium records on www.sportfm.gr everything that judged the match…
“Magic” first ten minutes that “disappeared” Panathinaikos: The good… day from the first period seemed for Olympiakos. One would expect the “red and whites” to be tired from the difficult match in Kaunas, but from the first minutes they showed the opposite. Bartzokas’s players stepped on the gas against a Panathinaikos player, who was stepping elsewhere and was elsewhere. With Fal as the reference point in the racket, either to score or to create, Piraeus needed just over 7 minutes to go to +20 (28-8). The score at the end of the first ten minutes was the deafening 38-13 with Olympiakos dominating everywhere. The “red and whites” had 6/8 three-pointers, with the “greens” on the other hand being at 0/6 outside the 6.75m., While the difference in rebounds was chaotic, where it was at 12-3, with the “Clover” had not gotten a single defender!
The “red and whites”… stifled the “green” reaction and put an early finale: The first half ended with Olympiakos at +25 (58-33). This, made the players of Bartzokas relaxed in the second and Panathinaikos to take advantage of this, making a partial score of 2-13, with which he reduced the difference to -14 (60-46), until 24 ‘. This was the last που sign given on the floor of SEF by the team of Priftis, as the continuation belonged entirely to that of Piraeus. From that point on, the “red and white”… vise in defense returned, Fal, Vezenkov and Sloukas entered the offensive equation and Olympiakos running… left in the open field made a partial score of 18-3, which sent him to +29 ( 78-49), with Macon’s buzzer beater forming the 78-51 of the third period.
One with polyphony and the other with three soloists: George Bartzokas had the luxury once again to have many solutions, unlike Dimitris Priftis. This can be seen by looking at the statistics, with the “red and whites” having six players with double-digit points. First scorers were Sloukas and Vezenkov with 16 points. each, with the former having 9 assists and Fal making a full appearance with 13 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Papanikolaou came with a ρα fora from Kaunas, adding 13p. with great shots, while Martin had so many who came off the bench. At 10 p.m. McKissick stopped, offering another 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Also, Jean-Charles honored his 15-minute presence on the floor with the above, having 8 points, 3 rebounds and good defenses, giving important solutions when Vezenkov was “loaded” quickly with two fouls. Thus, with the others pulling the most oars, Olympiakos “hid” the mediocre night of Wokap and Dorsey. On the other hand, only three players were drawn for Panathinaikos. Makon was the top scorer with 23 points, but most came when the match was almost decided. Earlier, Papagiannis and Nedovic tried to keep the pretexts for the “greens”, with the Greek center having 18 points. and 9 rebounds and the Serbian guard had 16 points. All the others can not be said to have responded.
