THE Olympic returned to victories in the most impressive way against Maccabi Tel Aviv (90-73), with Giorgos Printezis referring through his statements after the end of the match both to the result and to the overall course of the “red and whites” this season.
In addition, the leader of Piraeus spoke about his absence Vassilis Spanoulis from this year’s roster, saying that he has not yet realized it and he misses it.
The statements of George Printezis in detail:
For the ten-minute record of Olympiacos: “It was a ten-minute period that we showed a good reaction after the final in Istanbul. The headquarters gives us energy. This reaction is a good sign for the future. It shows that we are a good team “.
About the way the coach asks for the coach: “This is how the coach wants us to play, he wants the ball to turn, everyone to feel useful. We all enter the game that way, we rely on the team game in the attack “.
For the expectations that exist in the team: “It is impossible to say big words and big conversations. You see, there are many ups and downs. All teams have quality, but also difficult nights. You saw what Armani did. It is a marathon. We reacted in combination with our headquarters “.
For the first season without Vassilis Spanoulis: “The truth is that many times I look at his counter in the locker room. It is empty of course. That’s what I said to the caregiver, it’s a little macabre. His career is over. It is missing a lot. We have achieved beautiful moments together and we have a strong relationship. We grow up, the years go by, that’s how it is. Of course, I miss him a lot, just like in the team “.
For the fact that he is now a leader: “My role did not change much, I had the same relationship with all the children. I talk to most of them 20 times a day. Billis and I have a different influence. I did not try to be like him. “I am OK with my role and happy that we are winning, no matter how much I play.”
For the nickname he has given to Larentzakis: “Turtle. “Like the turtlenecks that connect the legs a little”.
