A postponement game for the 18th race is held in Thessaloniki where Mars skipper welcomes Panathinaikos champion.
Lower than expected Mars in Nice lost 72-65 to an Ionic who apparently wanted the victory more. Until the half time the match was a derby but in the second half Ionic most decisive got the valuable victory which was essentially a category after having 3 wins away from its opponent and superior in the tie. It is very difficult now for the yellows to have to win outside the program if they want to hope for something. Certainly the game with Panathinaikos is not suitable for this and the team's goal is the next two with Colossus outside and Hephaestus inside. Two absences for today's with Fliis and Voulgaropoulos unable to give the present.
On the other hand, Panathinaikos in the Greek championship does not face any problems and the first goal is to enter the 8th division of the Euroleague. In the last ones it does not perform well defensively and this interruption may be the trigger for a new beginning and coach Pitino operation in defense. With averages at home and away over 100 points is not expected to face a problem from the not so tough defense of Mars. Without Johnson and Vougiouka, the greens traveled to Thessaloniki.
summarizing the score will go as far as Panathinaikos wants as the capacity difference is huge. A win over 20 points I think is possible with the Greens aiming again at the 100th.
The point I choose is ...Panathinaikos (-19.5 & Over 162.5 pts) in performance 2.57 at stoiximan.
