Euro League
Olympiacos had all of the symptoms of Covid and came out … negative
If the Piraeus are in the cheetah, they rarely lose, if they are favorites, then their result is usually worse than the tests for the coronavirus. Bartzokas was sent off, his players made a salad and Pantelis Diamantopoulos writes why.
They went to the city as a favorite. First evil. They had to play for over two weeks. Almost everyone had coronavirus, they got rid of it, but they had their symptoms while playing the game. The “red-whites” lost to Hazer and Akpinar. They weren’t destroyed. For heaven’s sake. But it is not possible to pass on to … dukou that they ate 94 points. They won by 3 points at halftime and got into second and were destroyed. With a few exceptions, Bartzokas and his players did enough to lose. Although everyone wins and everyone loses, those who fought against it do not find anything beautiful. Appropriate …
The Turks had 12/18 in the second half. Don’t be afraid of Olympiakos if it’s an outsider. When the opponent is at their best, when the field is … jungle. You will always find the solution. Instead, always worry when he is baptized a darling. When there are players from the “opposing” team and everyone thinks the game will be definitive. Bartzokas was sent off early, McKissick scored early, they made it a mantra in the second half. And against them was a team that let the ball circulate well. She shot beautifully in the second half, but most of all she used strength, stubbornness and elements that led her to victory. Fener made the simple look … masterpieces. And Olympiacos bad behavior played a role in this, finding itself and overcoming the … arrhythmia of abstinence.
In the first part, the team completely lost their return to defense and their coach. Bartzokas was sent off with two technical penalties and his players had an issue with their suspension early in the game. However, they rested in the locker room and won because they were simply more and qualitatively superior. With no angry players who previously made “popes”, the team found their peace in certain hands like those of Printezis.
For some, the game may not have started well. And the opponent also played a role in this. What I mean; Hazer was the key player for Djordjevic. Because he was simply given the assignment to outplay Dorsey and completely disorganized the “red-whites” who threaten the most. McKissick was injured, Wookup found a threesome after a long time, but the match didn’t go well initially. The same goes for Fal and Vezenkov.
As nice as it is that after the suffering with Covid everyone is ready for war, the renunciation of official activities was very obvious. The arrival of Slouka and Printezis ensured safety and a constant offensive threat as Papanikolaou took the lead in the second ten minutes. The Turks, in addition to the expected grouping without their two best players, also had certain children on which to base their picks. With the weight falling on Henry and Polonara and the rest going with strength, it at least gave them a balance in aiming. And they defended themselves as best they could.
Olympiacos were a favorite because of the quality and overall image, but you have to show them off on the floor and the +3 of the half was definitely not enough. In addition, the rebounds were lost during this period and Fener had a better percentage in the two-mans, which is not common in the games where one team is Olympiacos. However, the game was interesting and as you can see it wasn’t easy. 16 of the 36 points scored by the Turks in the first part came from an open field game. When they went to a playset, Piraeus had the answers. And they wanted to do that longer in the second part. Did you do it? Nope …
Pierre started his own party, Christos Pappas left the evil Dorsey more on the floor than he should, the Turks increased their pressure and Tsabouka, they left with full force because they could do that and so they got a security difference. Half-time standings leader Printezis failed to hit the floor in the 20′-31 ‘period and the return may have worked, but in general the defense was tragic.
The team received 30 points with 7/9 threes from the opponent. Well, 9 mistakes in ten minutes, what else do you want to make the third third turn out to be tragic? And in the final 28th, the home team also got psychology, a rehearsal of … sky-high and unbalanced threesomes from Guduric. Mahmutoglu provided solutions from the bench and Djordjevic also saw basketball players who have played very little, enter the field and fight with substance.
Olympiacos lost an away game. I wrote it in the foreword, it has not been destroyed. He needs to get back to normal, balanced and strong. Many of the “first violins” didn’t play music, but whatever came to mind. Others hesitated to shoot. Others shot for no reason. Others held the ball. And all together … mistakes and dizziness. I told you symptoms … life goes on. And the Euroleague too. Piraeus is doing very well so far and can return to victories. A little rest, a clear head of the coach and the players and the victories will come again …

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.
