As to whether Olympiacos wants first place: “Obviously, yes. Does not give anything meaningful, after all, because we do not know who will be 7th or 8th. Anyway, if we knew we wouldn’t choose, we would try to win, given the difficulties, which we have the absences.

We generally did some good workouts, we had the opportunity 3-4 days to workout and believe we will be very competitive”

Whether he is interested in the tradition that the first of the Euroleague’s regular season has never conquered the trophy in the new form of the event: “I used to deal in the past, now no. You can’t put the team sit down to lose. To end first in this Euroleague, who are struggling so many teams to get into the play-in, not even in the playoffs and we see who’s out is one is one ” justification ” for the trouble of children within the year.

We would like to end first. We will definitely reflect on the opponent in the playoffs but More they should reflect, because we will be first. So we’ll see it like that. We have self -confidence and faith in our team and so must be done”

For Maccabi’s profile: “Beyond that, we face Maccabi, who is a team, trying to freeze the way you are attacked with various tricks, such as a belt, a match-AP and changes. They are trying to confuse the opponent with some tricks. It’s a very good team.

I would so like to praise him, to say what I had said last year, that has nice ideas for basketball. He had the hardest job and they deserve congratulations on what they do, they have made big wins now and we believe that tomorrow will be very competitive”
