Piraeus have a home disadvantage, having finished in 5th place in the standings, but throughout the season they have shown that they have a way of winning away from SEF.
The first two games of the series will be played at the Palau Blaugrana in Barcelona, while the George Bartzokas “headaches” about the situation of Thomas Walkup and Kostas Papanikolaou. Both did not take part in Monday’s training, creating concern in the ranks of the Greek champions.
Tomas Walkup during training on Monday (22/4) withdrew due to back problems, while Kostas Papanikolaou did not participate as he is suffering from a virus. All this two days before Game 1 at the headquarters of Barcelona!
Nevertheless, both Walkupas well as Papanikolaou they will normally travel to Barcelona for the games with his team Roger Grimmow. The former suffered from back problems, a problem that had been following him for some time. Yes, yes during the Final 8 of the Greek Cup, in Crete, he was wearing a seat beltin order to keep his waist stable and not face problems.
As for his leader Olympiakouwho did not train due to infectionno worries about his condition and will get on the plane with the rest of the team, with George Bartzokas to count on him at 100% for the two Barcelona matches.
