Winners!!
Guys, I can not thank enough Thecippis for making me part of this wonderful adventure.
An extraordinary game, with all the concerns of this game related to the absence of an important player and the poor shape of other key players. I hope in a better shape of Pikoulas, the minutes that he played last week were perfect, the moon was aligned with Mercury and the cats had miaows 7 times before the training ... instead he has stopped as avarage. The same for Florakis, shape slightly better for him. In the morning we called them in the dressing rooms, we asked them how they felt, but the faces were sad. Then Pikoulas has watched his friend and said: "Yes, you can!". Florakis is born again, guys, he had the eyes of the tiger, and suddenly we were excited too.
The match was fought from the first shoot, the Makedonija was fierce and she did see his effort from the beginning, but our heroes were there, led by a beautiful strong wing who never spring. Throughout the game plus the extra Florakis has always been there to sweat and to encourage fellow team that they are made to drag incredibly deserved victory. He has left only 35 "from the end of regular time.
In the first quarter there was a painful departure by us but we quickly took over the reins of the game. In the second quarter they came under closer to -1 by us, to finish at -2. In the third quarter Makedonija has showed us his talent, most of the period was a struggle point to point, with our slight advantage that they have recovered at the end.
The fourth period was a nightmare, after a flying start of our opponents, the coach continued to call Florakis on the bench to give him a little oxygen, to put him in the end, but he has not wanted to know. When he was already with 20 points and 20 rebounds in his pocket, he remained there to jump and pass the ball to the other. We draw a 3 '3" from the end with a bomb from 3 by Pitsikokos that he took a foul, then also making the free shot. From there, point to point until the end of regular time with Makedonija who has always tried to escape but was always recovered from ours. 3 minutes of fire, we draw at 15" from the end with a bomb from 3 by the usual Pitsikokos.
Over time, our players seemed exhausted, but the basket of overtaking powered by Florakis marked the turning point, from that point our victory was written.
At the end of the game was good to see the embrace between Pitsikokos, Lavdas and Florakis, main author of this victory, which was added Gagalatos, a good boy who was immediately inserted in the spirit of the group, he played a excellent game. But a large applause goes to the whole team that acted like a real group of champions.
Florakis MVP for the strength demonstrated.
A hug to Steve Makis for the unfortunate defeat, you deserve the celebration.
