Olympiacos-Baskonia: Bartzokas couldn’t bear to watch



[ad_1]

The -14 (76-90) of Olympiakos from Baskonia, which since 2007 counted in SEF 0/15 having been defeated in various ways, and the fourth game lost in 9 Euroleague games has the rojiblancas absences as a solid excuse. refrain from acting. Ellis, Jean-Charles, Vezenkov and Charalambopoulos had contracted the coronavirus while the wounded Harrison was missing, resulting in Hassan Martin’s 37’20 ” and Printezis’ 28’08 ” impacting 7 fewer . rebounds (22-29) with 10 defenders lost. However, with Giorgos Bartzokas coming off his bench irritated and heading to the bellows for an unnecessary foul by Larentzakis (who shot) before the end of the first half with the score at 31-45, it is clear that he did little well as then the Greek team. He had clearly failed to slow down the pace and aggressiveness of the guests who had lost the size of Fall and Jekiri to act as a point of reference on both sides either with deflections or opening play when the ball touched in.

It would be paradoxical if the pragmatic George Printezis was looking for a basis for psychological elevation when he had realized from an early age that “we weren’t focused and we made effortless mistakesThe (non-latent) language of the Olympiacos vice president was telling the truth, since the regional defense had left Pieria Henry (the one who two years ago wanted David Blatt impatiently) to distribute the assists (6 of the first 8 of Basconia, eventually reaching 11) and Alec Peters acting from the outside, forming double-digit differences from a young age (17-30, 21-40, 31-47).

Nor did the fact that the Spanish champions played at high speed and ‘launched’ a series of attacks, mainly due to errors, made the ‘rojiblancos’ take advantage. At least not to the extent that they should to fully return to claiming a victory. It is true that the third period was the most efficient for Bartzokas’ team (27-20), having significantly reduced defensive wear during this period and finding more rational options in attack. That is, when McKissick stopped shooting and rushed to the racket. Only in 60-67 and the occupation Spanoulis was accused of the unsportsmanlike foul that condemned the already incomplete and troublesome effort.

All hope has been utopian ever since. Especially as long as Ivanovic’s players’ shots from the weak side were constantly discovered and largely accurate (13/26 total). It is true that Piraeus’ 13 errors were below their overall average in the tournament, but when assists are 5.5 points below normal and each defense won is’ torpedoed ‘by lost rebounds, the final result could not to be different. Only “if we played with more intensity the game would be different“, as Giannoulis Larentzakis well explained, excluding himself from the equation of those who can”past subconsciously the thought that we will spend“because the”the problem is giving 100%From the beginning. Not after a difference that had exceeded 20 points (21-43).
