After Italy’s friendly with Greece for the Acropolis Tournament, Gianmarko Pojeko He did not hesitate to share his thoughts with honesty and humor, as he always does, wishing us good luck to our National at Eurobasket … except for the first match, where Greece is with Italy.

In detail what he said:
“Congratulations to Greece and the coach Spanoulis. They played hard throughout the match. I am worried because we had two injuries and this is not good new as we play in six days. We had ups and downs in our performance, we didn’t have much stability. We should play well for 40 minutes.
We still have five days to work for the premiere against Greece, which will then be complete. I hope we are healthy. We played as we always play, we didn’t have any strategy, we wanted to find chemistry and identity by playing this match with all the players available. We will see on Thursday how much things will change with Antetokounbos, Mitoglou and Sloukas.
The life of the referees is not easy, they made a silly decision in the end that did not give a foul on Nyang in claiming rebounds. But it doesn’t matter. We did everything we could and didn’t lose because of the arbitration, but they could be smarter. I think they are good referees, today they might not have been in shape. I wish you good luck in Eurobasket, except for the first match (laughs). ”
“It is a huge assumption that Sassari signed Polarara. I too had a player in Sassari. Congratulations to the team and the president who made this move. We focus so much on the results, but there are more important things. Akile is a fantastic kid, we are missing a lot and we are by his side. The people of Sardinia will be by his side. ”
“John is a fantastic guy. Like his brothers. When the president told us he would not play today I was distressed, because I like to watch him. This is what I was saying to Spanoulis before the match. You don’t have the opportunity to see Antetokounbos play many times. It is not so easy for players. ”
