With excellent defense and Rob Gray on a big day, Prometheus defeated AEK 84-70 in Rhodes and secured the first ticket to the Stoiximan Super Cup final!
After the end of the match, the Patrinos coach, George Limniatihe stood in the good racing image his team presented, and stressed that his players would claim the victory in the final, whatever the chances!
What Prometheus coach said:
“Congratulations to our players. We had focused on two things. Defensively to have a better picture than previous games, where our image was sad. For us there was a “must” in our defensive behavior and the passive of 70 points shows what we did.
Aggressively, all the coaches are asking for the ball to turn around, we all ask for. We played differently, it was our choice. In friendly we had 20 assists in every game, today we had 11. It was our choice to play this way. A title is at stake, but the big ones come next week.
I said it from the first day, I’m not interested in who we play, with Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, the Lakers or the Thunder, what we need to do is push Olympiacos to play as much as possible to win us. If we are 5%, we will claim it. AEK has an excellent team and excellent coach. We will rest and try tomorrow to do our best.
I don’t know when a team can roll. What I know is that we have a new team, with Greeks who are now building, so we need time to get identity, principles, rules and play basketball that we like. To be healthy, to train and build habits. Front and back. I hope we will get this identity and know that Prometheus will play a specific basketball style.
We have experienced kids to help throughout the process, we have many young children. They are also kids with a lot of quality, Gray and McCalum are what we expected. “.
