THE Panathinaikos AKTOR he did not struggle against Prometheustaking a comfortable 91-70 win in Game 4 of the Stoiximan GBL.
Although the game was uneventful for the “greens”, o Ergin Ataman was… torrential at the press conference, making statements about the many injuries to the “clover”, but also the mentality which characterizes his team so far.
What he said in detail at the press conference:
“I heard today that it is from Agios Dimitrios, we have many in the club, happy birthday to them. In the first quarter we were soft, we were not aggressive in our defense. In the second quarter we improved the defense, became tougher, found scores in the surprise and used Yurtseven and Mitoglou properly under the basket. We had control of the match, we used players who don’t get time in the Euroleague. It was a regular league match. There is a level difference in the two leagues, we continue.
I’m sorry but I can’t say anything about the injured. I will know tomorrow from the training we will do. If we don’t have enough players we will need to bring in some from the academies. This is the situation at the club.
Every match this year is very difficult in the Euroleague. If we don’t find the mentality we had in previous years it will be a difficult season for us.
I don’t know about Lessor. I don’t know if Holmes and Huacho will play, I don’t have Lessor in mind. I don’t know, I don’t have any information.
The truth is that if we are not ready, we will not win, no matter how many people come to the match. Panathinaikos cannot win any match with this shirt. The players have to prove it on the court. It is my responsibility to prepare them but if the players are not in training how can I do that? This is a staff problem.”
