Priftis: “Jovic will need gradual reintegration due to inaction”
Dimitris Priftis spoke about the duel between Panathinaikos OPAP and CSKA Moscow (December 1st, 9:30 p.m., Novasports Prime, Match Center at Sportish), but also the transfer of Stefan Jovic.
Panathinaikos OPAP is back in action after nearly three weeks due to the coronavirus cases that hit it during the holidays. The Greens will welcome CSKA Moscow on Wednesday, December 12th at 9:00 p.m. (Novasports Prime, Match Center on Sportish), with Dimitris Priftis being called on to find the balance and present a team on the OAKA floor that will compete with the Victory will fight.
On the eve of the game with the Russian team, Klee’s coach referred to the objective difficulties of recent weeks, but also to the transfer of Stefan Jovic, who is due to arrive in Greece in a few days.
In detail he said:
For suffering from the coronavirus in the past few weeks: “I wish everyone a happy new year, that everyone is healthy. It’s been a “test” these twenty days since the last game we played with Lavrio. I would describe it as very poor in terms of training at this time. Several players have gone missing and obviously reintegration is not easy after a long period of inactivity. We’re talking about some kids who have one and a half – two training sessions for the upcoming official games in a difficult week.
Obviously it’s difficult for both us and the players. Especially for them, because they have to meet the fitness requirements. As for our work, some children, four or five, have exercised well, others have been inactive. When they’re all out in the field together, a middle ground has to be struck to get a few things done. It’s not easy, but multiple teams suffer from the same condition“.
For CSKA Moscow: “It has size, it has physicality, it has a fairly strong element of the low-level play, it reads very well. It obviously has chemistry because it’s a team that has been almost the same for the past few years. The game will be very difficult“.
For Stefan Jovic: “After a long period of inactivity, it is the rhythm of the race. Gradual reintegration is clearly required. Let’s get to him first to see what state he will be in for the first few days and how he will react and gradually escalating to get into training and games. We’ll see it day by day. Obviously, if he’s in good shape and in good physical shape, he’s a very good player, with a lot of experience and experience. Can set the game. He’s a very good player between the bench and the rest of the team, this often used connection is ideal. In good condition and at the right pace, of course“.
Kaselakis: “Suspicious and focused”
For his part, Leonidas Kaselakis stated:
How Panathinaikos OPAP will be after the coronavirus“It’s definitely a question mark for us how we’ll do after all this, but I think it’s a time of pandemic that affects more or less all teams. Even the teams that don’t have coronavirus don’t play because they do Our part that we have to do to know the objective difficulties is to get it out of our mind, to prepare with the data we have, and to present the best possible person against a team thirsting for victories, because “The Game” has a goal motivation. We have to be very suspicious and focused throughout the game. “
About whether they’ll think about what happened to the coronavirus before“You are certainly not going to be as active as you should be and you are going to give yourself an excuse if you could have, if you didn’t have it in your head. So it all starts in your head. We have to get rid of it and be like that much more focused as possible so that we can get the necessary intensity in a EuroLeague game “.
What Panathinaikos OPAP has to watch out for against CSKA Moscow: “To be tougher. CSKA is great and it doesn’t just depend on how big it is, but it takes advantage of it, everyone goes for an offensive rebound. So the key number 1 will be to control our defensive rebounds with that It can also beat us. Also in the open field, because if a team attacks a lot in the offensive rebound, it automatically leaves a gap in the transition. So we have to be very careful not to counter our own weapon, but to be productive in the Attack. What we have to do is not give them a chance to escape, restrict their possessions as much as possible. “
To the duel with Will Claiborne“He’s a player who has made a difference in CSKA games for the last two years. I think the most important thing when you face such players is not not not to score because that doesn’t happen, but to get their percentage And that is something that “at that moment will automatically spoil the chemistry of the team. Will Claiborne is certainly the best CSKA player and one of the best in the EuroLeague, but we have to work as a team in defense and attack. “

Mustafa Fal has delivered a monstrous performance in international matches and Vassilis Skoundis is tackling the problem, inevitably involving the first teacher of the art, Panagiotis Fassoulas.
“The gypsy saw his generation and his heart rejoiced,” says a proverb whose meaning fits the occasion… I mean, the occasion of Fal seeing the other Fal opposite him and enjoying him normally and in accordance with the law!
Let the necessary recommendations be made…
One of them is Mustafa Fal, who was born in Paris on February 23, 1992, he is French, he plays in his country’s national team, his hat comes from Senegal, he has been looking since he was 2.18. He is in his third season at Olympiacos…
Yusufa and Taco
The other person who competed against him yesterday is Youssoufa Fal, who was born in Dakar on January 12, 1995, is a Senegalese with French nationality, has a height of 2.21 m and is competing in Villerban for the third consecutive time…
There is of course the much wilder Taco Fal, who was also born in Dakar on December 10, 1995, spent three seasons in the NBA, is now sizzling in China and has had his head tickling the feet of God since he was 229 cm tall!
Mustafa, Yusufa and Tako have no relationship or kinship between them: they are synonymous, apart from the coincidence that ensures that they are all three kilometers long!
The triple-double figure in Pylaia
He had attacked the Olympiacos central defender again on the 11th of last month, on the occasion of the triple-double he scored in the game against PAOK in Pylaia, rare in our area, but he wanted to make us laugh for a while as his only goal!
At first he missed Yannis Fileris who treated him properly, but I also have some stitches for his fur!
To say my sin, I laughed and liked Fileris’ pun on… Wrong!
Fasoulas and… Lumidis
In any case, “Pani” was like…Lumidis in the field of coffee roasting, plus he made heads turn with soft nails with his unique and unparalleled skills.
To paraphrase Lumidis’ advertising slogan: in our case it was “Everyone in their own way and Fasoulas in their caps“!
Since the conversation broke out, the experienced PAOK and Olympiacos international center has recorded five triple-doubles with points, rebounds and blocks, which are of course rarer than those that include assists.
He scored the first of these goals on October 15, 1988 (PAOK-Panionios) with 18 points, 18 rebounds and 13 blocks.
Two weeks later he “wrote” the second with 20-18-11 against Apollon Patras, on November 19 he followed the third against Sporting (29-19-15), while in the 1990/91 season he added two more: 18 – 14-10 with Peristeri and 19-12-11 with Iraklis.
Vrankovic’s record and the “wow” with Green
Similar triple feats with plugs have also been achieved by Stojan Vrankovic (who is already the record holder in EuroLeague history with 10 in a Fortitudo Bologna-Cibona Zagreb game) with Panathinaikos, Anthony Cook with PAOK, Mike Smrek with Dafni, PJ Brown with Panionios, Efthymis Renzias with the National Youth Team and Antonis Fotsis with the Greens youth team.
On Friday night in Lyon, Fall broke the bank when he nearly followed in Draymond Green’s footsteps and posted a rare triple-double without scoring in double figures.
He reached the final horn with two points, seven rebounds, seven assists and eight blocks, while the Warriors’ cocky forward did so on February 10, 2017 against the Grizzlies with 11 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals and just two points.
From 0.8 to 8
Fal had grabbed 14 rebounds in the game against Red Star while he dished out seven assists in the game against Baskonia, so there is no news here…
The wave was caused by the eight caps, because on the one hand there are a lot of them and on the other hand the so-called do not have a big problem with davtes.
Before the game with Villerban, he had taken 12 shots in 14 games, and suddenly he flashed and thundered from a 0.8 average to eight!
What is the key quality a good blocker should have?
The cap for Moretti, the timing and the caps
Instead of answering, I’ll give the floor to a specialist and expert, none other than Panagiotis Fasoulas, who, among other things, scored the most decisive international match in the history of Olympiacos!
I am referring to the match against Paolo Moretti in the third game of the European Champions Cup playoff series in the 10993/94 season, thanks to which Piraeus qualified for the Final 4 in Tel Aviv.
“Everything is a question of timing“he explained to me when I asked him how he cultivated and developed his art.
“You need to know and understand where, when and how to jump to block the opponent’s shot. In addition to this sense of space and time, speed of movement and long arms also play a role. I did the caps and even covered the ball so we could go straight to attack” explains Fasoulas, who is already drawing the moral lesson of the story…
“Attack requires talent, but defense depends on will.”
The spider web
Last but not least, this desire flowed from the… gums of Fasoula, who went out and trapped his opponents in the spider’s web from which no one could escape.
From his appearance in the early 80s until his retirement in 1999, he reduced defense not only to a science, but to a spectacular spectacle!

Matias Lessor received hundreds of interesting messages from friends of Panathinaikos AKTOR about his injury and quickly explained what the situation is.
Matias Lessor’s injury was the only black mark in the game against Armani Milano. For this very reason, the people of Panathinaikos AKTOR didn’t enjoy it as much as they would have liked. At least until they received the results of the sports high school exams.
The day after the game, it became clear that the problem was not serious. However, Matias Lessor explained in detail how he feels after his injury and thanked everyone for their interest.
Matias Lesor’s message in detail:
“Thank you everyone for your lovely messages and your interest. I’m feeling much better. It just hurts, but I’m fine“.

End of alert for Matias Lesor at Panathinaikos AKTOR. The French center has a bad back due to the injury and will miss tomorrow’s (December 24th) game against Prometheus in Patras (20:15, ERT3 and LIVE on Sportish), but his tests were clear.
Matias Lesor will play in tomorrow’s (December 24th) away game of Panathinaikos AKTOR against Prometheus (8:15 p.m., 3 a.m. and LIVE from Sportish) on matchday 11 of the Stoiximan Basket League due to the lower back injury he sustained in this game , do not compete Armani Milano. But he escaped the worst.
The French center was tested immediately after the return of the “Greens” from Milan, who were “clean”. In other words, they didn’t show that the bone was broken in the middle – which everyone feared when they saw the Frenchman slaughtered on the ground. But Lesor is still in pain, ruling him out of the game against Prometheus and considered doubtful for next week’s EuroLeague game against Red Star.
With Lesor out, Oleg Balcherovski, Kostas Antetokounmpo and Dinos Mitoglou will fill the center position in the game against Prometheus.
