A very interesting interview gave Eurohoops the Kostas Sloukas. Panathinaikos leader talked about the upcoming Final Fourwhile answering the question of how much he will still fight.
At the same time, the experienced guard referred to famous snapshot where he asks for the change of Omer Jurtseven In Game 4 of the Playoffs with Anadolu Efes, stressing that it was a wrong reaction from him, for which he apologized to both his teammate and the team.
In detail what he said:
For Lesor and Panathinaikos’ reaction: “This year, with Lesor’s injury I began to worry. Matthias missed both the locker room and the stadium because he is the best tall in Europe. Jurcheven did a step up, Gabriel’s acquisition was right. And Dinos’ rise has helped a lot. ”
About how much it will still play: “Because I’m aware I will play another year, Max two at most. I’m not going to pull it too much as I’ve said. ”
For the event with Jurcheven: “It was a wrong move. In the volume you have 300 beats. It was very wrong, I have talked to Omer and he has understood it. It was an important phase and there were two more phases earlier I talked to him. The balances are very thin. One or two errors are very important in such games can judge the result. Omer is an excellent child. My reaction to the court was very raw and abrupt, it was a very big mistake. I apologized, as in the team. “
For a possible Greek final at Eurolague: “I don’t care. The main goal of the team is to find the final. There, let anyone come and who is a bit of an opponent. Anyone who conquers the Euroleague will be the top team. What is important that the opponent will be Panathinaikos, Olympiacos or Real Madrid. Last year is there someone who can say that Panathinaikos wasn’t the best team? “
For Ataman: “It is a relationship of mutual appreciation, mutual respect. We also have a personal relationship, off the field without meaning that we are very close, we are as much as. We talk about the game, he trusts me and I trust him at 100% and is the coach of success. It is right, that he has to say he says it in the locker room. The fact that he says it publicly is the tactic to intrigue each player and be ready in the next game. This is his tactic. “
For Giannakopoulos: “I have unlimited respect for Mr. Giannakopoulos, we have had some discussions, his views are fully in line with my own views on the team. He loves the team very much, he is honest and that he has promised he has done it. “
For toxicity in our time with Olympic and Panathinaikos: “The toxicity and last year were there. It always exists, I don’t like it at all. It doesn’t affect me at all, if it affected me I wouldn’t make this move. In essence, I entered the barrel with the head toxicity from last year. What I care about is the view of my own people and members of the group, toxicity brings hostility, violence, and all as family members and as models to relieve spirits. “
