Olympiakos was a better team in terms of all the components of the game. A couple of times we were able to catch our opponents and it seemed like we could do something, but the incredible mistakes and the inability to defend ourselves cost us the match. We already know the formula. If we defend, we are very good, if we do not defend, we are not exclusive, we lose ”, Š said. Jasikevičius.
In the resumed Euroleague match, Šarūnas Jasikevičius, coached by Barcelona (9/3), landed 88:96 (17:26, 30:25, 16:21, 25:24) at home at Piraeus Olympiakos (6 / 5) Tuesday.

We didn’t really need their services at the time, we earned points, but we couldn’t stop our competitors. “
Olympiacos coach Georgios Bartzokas was satisfied with the attitude of his students.
“We played against the best defending team in the Euroleague and we scored 96 points. It means something. We played as a team, we shared the ball, we found a free player, many of us scored points. That’s why we won this time. It was a victory for the whole team and congratulations to my players, ”he said.
Kostas Sloukas, who scored 15 points for the winners and had 10 assists, said it was a very important victory for Piraeus.
“It’s incredible that we scored so many points. We control the game. At some point, we showcased top-notch basketball and hit big shots. We don’t lose our minds, we keep going. This is the Euroleague this season. We have won a very good team and we are proud of that, ”said the player.
