«We have to get better and come back stronger»

The Olympiacos coach, Giorgos Bartzokas, pointed out after the end of the game against Khimki, that it is now the time for him and his associates to figure out what went well and what went wrong, so that the team returns stronger next season.

“It was the last game of the season. Khimki came here with a small rotation and they got to lose Mickey as well. It was tough for us to convince the players to play a serious and intense game. We did not have intensity and were shooting poor percentage free throws as well as threes. It’s obvious that we had to have approached the game more seriously. However, we finally won, finished the season with a win and that’s what counts. Congratulations to Khimki, my previous team. It has also been a tough season for them as well and I would also like to congratulate my players for the win. As you all know, the season for us is over. It’s hard, we wanted to be able to continue with the Euroleague. We need to assess what we did well and what not and improve everything so as to return stronger”.
