Georgios Bartzokas wasn’t particularly in the mood for a talk after his team’s defeat to Panathinaikos by 85-80.
Olympiacos missed a great opportunity in Athens in the Greek League game against Panathinaikos. They managed to come back after a double-digit deficit, even despite Nikola Milutinov’s injury, but in the end, Nigel Williams-Goss missed crucial free throws.
The truth is that we made our effort. We had the opportunity with Williams-Goss, if he had made the free throw at the end, to take the lead. However, we made a decent effort. Unfortunately, Fall got injured, and so did Milutinov. Panathinaikos is in very good shape. We were forced into makeshift formations.
Obviously, the first position was at stake. Even if we had won today, it would still have been difficult to take the first position in the standings. We will have our chance again if we are complete and consistent. We don’t have any information yet about Milutinov“, Georgios Bartzokas said after the game.
