Prometheus – Kolossos 80-76: double win with a great performance from Thomason
Prometheus reacted after Kolossos’ great counterattack, recovered and won (80:76) at “Dimitris Tofalos”. Double victory for Yannis Christopoulos’ team after, among other things, covering the -2 of the loss in the first round match.
John Thomason carried Prometheus for most of the game en route to +19 (59-40 at 25′) but it took John Condit and Anthony Cowan making crucial baskets in the final for his team to celebrate Giannis Christopoulos.. Double victory over Kolossos (80-76) at “Dimitris Tofalos”.
Not only did the hosts climb the Basket League table (with 8 wins and 6 losses), but they also took the lead in the draw after covering the -2 by which they were beaten in the preliminary round match.
The race
The first half was disappointing in terms of spectacle as Colossos took the lead (11-12) but had 4/14 shots and 4 losses. Ilias Papatheodorou’s team controlled the situation until the middle of the second quarter before the… storm came. From the 15th minute until the break, the hosts scored at lightning speed, from +2 to +14 at halftime. A difference that made Yannis Christopoulos’ team the clear favorite to win.
Even though Prometheus had the momentum and John Thomason had a very good night, he didn’t feel safe. +19 (59-40 at 25′) was the maximum difference in favor of the home team before the counterattack began. Gradually, Colossus began to recover through his defenses and limited paternal leadership. At the beginning of the fourth period, things got even more difficult for the hosts. Ilias Papatheodorou’s team showed an excellent performance both in defense and in attack, thanks to which they reduced the difference to the minimum possible value (66:65) about four minutes before the end.
The counterattack was now permanent, with Dimitris Katsivelis, Haris Yiannopoulos and Michael Dixon signing the total change of scenery in “Dimitris Tofalos” (71-72) with 1’58” to go. At the crucial moment, however, Anthony Cowan and George Condit were “there” to create +4 (76-72) from Prometheus with 41.1” left.
Kolossos didn’t have a new answer to that, as Dimitris Katsivelis failed to exhale on a three-point shot, which at least would have kept the “Sea” in a strong position in the nascent tie.

Greek “Panathinaikos” The team faced serious personnel problems due to the flu epidemic.
Eight players and three members of the coaching staff were immediately diagnosed with influenza A with severe symptoms.
Panathinaikos has shown good form in recent matches, but flu A has spread to Greece and has affected the team, which will most likely lead to the postponement of the Greek championship match against Maroussi, scheduled for December 27.
The problem is not only related to the championship match, but also to the derby against Olympiacos in the Euroleague, which is scheduled for January 2, as the epidemic prevents the team’s normal preparations.
Since many players have severe symptoms, no one can say for sure how the disease will progress and when everyone will be healthy.
The names of the sick people have not been disclosed at this time.
