In an interview he gave to Amerikanos24 the Aisya reported to incident with Kostas Sloukas In last year’s finals of the league with the Olympic but also the conquest of the Euroleague by Panathinaic.
The former Ace of the Reds emphasized that he knew that Sloukas He was not happy with Olympiacos, but he did not expect he would leave, he described him as the best Greek basketball player while stressing that he was happy for his friends in Panathinaikos to win the Euroleague last year.
Following a part of his statements in ‘Triple threat showAmerikanos24:
“Everyone goes back to Olympiacos-Panathinaikos last season, we can go back to the beginning when he really decided to leave (Sloukas). Everyone was shocked, even us. We were shocked. I didn’t think it would leave.
I knew he was not 100% happy, but I didn’t think he would leave. But he did. So obviously this has just caused tension between the clubs throughout the year. That match was intense. They took the Euroleague and, with respect, deserved it. It was the best team at the right time. And I was happy for my friends in Panathinaikos.
I was even pleased for Sloukas. I had nothing against him for what he did. He was able to win another championship and Euroleague. And as a competitor, you congratulate the kids. It was just a moment of tension throughout the game. And everyone knows me that I do not retire from any crowd. I always see it competitively. I am fighting for his team, I am fighting for my own team. I will fight until the roles show either that I won or lose. It’s never personal to me.
I see it as a moment of tension in the game. I can also understand how he felt himself, on the pitch of his old team, in front of the audience who criticized him all over the game. I can understand his side, his feelings to take revenge, for some reason he felt that everyone was against him. I understood it but I felt that they were directed to me at that point of the game. Τον άκουσα να λÎει “με είδατε στο Final Four; Ήμουν MVP, μπλα μπλα μπλα”. And I say, “Yes, everyone has seen you, congratulations, I’m happy for you, but you don’t even grieve as if it’s something personal.” I say to him “Brother we were teammates.” I said “you have money, I have money, you do it as if it looks like it is, you are on a personal level and I do not know why”.
