The Piraeus team was still 51:52 behind at the start of the third quarter, but at the end of the quarter they accelerated 13-0 and took 81:64 ahead. For the rest of the time, Chimki did not stand up.
The Greeks drowned their opponents with long shots. Olympiakos hit as many as 16 3-pointers of 29 (55 percent accurate). Kostas Sloukas, who scored 5 points out of three of 7, was the top contributor, with 25 points and 29 utility points.
“Today we had a lot of problems, because the team was not full, we used a short replacement bench, a modest rotation. We only had 3 players in third and fourth positions.
As a result, we lost the fight “under the board”, and the basketball players fouled, causing problems late in the game.
We have no choice but to work and believe in what we do. We have to train hard, I don’t see any other way, “R. Kurtinaitis told the club’s website after the match.
… there are no words that we can justify to our fans.

Chimki’s player Yegor Vialtsev highlighted the problems on defense.
“If you look at the protocol, we have made 27 assists, it is about team play in attack. There are no problems here. Problems arise in defense.
Actually, there are no words that we can justify to our fans. I speak responsibly for everyone, we play terribly and this is not our level, ”said the basketball player.
“If we talk about the last two games with Parma and Olympiakos, we would say that we are on the right path, although he should have been gone 2 months ago. We tried, but I cannot name a specific reason for the failures.
The biggest problem is in defense. We have enough talent to attack, but we also have to defend ourselves, go back to defense and think about it. If everyone believes it, the victories will return.
We need a good game and everything will turn into its own cancer. Now each game has to be like a final for us, we have to give 150% for the victory. forces, “added Vialtsev.
Chimki will try to break through the fault zone in the Kaunas Euroleague on January 8 against Žalgiris.
