Panathinaikos 2016-17

[mitsos13]

So for the moment we have signed Chris Singleton from Lokomotiv and Mike James from Laboral (with an NBA opt out until 5/8).

Unexpectedly fair moves until now, but we need even more quality for the upcoming marathon of this season.

[iskoch]

james - calathes
pappas - feldaine
xxx - xxx
gist - singleton
raduljica - xxx

is that current pao roster?

[childress67]

James-calathes-bochoridis
pappas - feldaine
Jankovic-charalambopoulos
gist -fotsis-xxx
Singleton-xxx-xxx

Claver and vougioukas next moves..bourousis situation is difficult..

[saras]

not exactly
calathes-james-X1-bochoridis(he will probably go out on loan if we get another guy in guards,which is the most possible right now)
pappas-feldeine
charalampopoulos-X2
X3-gist-fotsis
singleton-X4

X1: perhaps kevin pangos. he is on the summer league with hawks right now and plays good,but i dont think he will find a contract in NBA. he is too short,slow and weak for NBA pg
X2: jankovic or adetokunbo AND some minutes at SF for feldeine in 3guard lineup,or X3 in 3 big men lineup. i think it will be jankovic. assistant coach is in the USA,checking the summer league,where jankovic participates
X3-Χ4: claver-vougioukas or bourousis-european(or non european if james gets balkan passport as being rumoured). as time passes and bourousis doesnt answer the claver-vougioukas scenario comes closer to becomming reality


there is a small possibility that we get a european small forward and 5th guard will be bochoridis. but i think the 1 scenario with european guard like pangos will be the final one.


ps. we have 4 non europeans right now(james,feldeine,gist,singleton) and according to greek league rules,we cant have another one,so the 2 available spots(6 is the maximum number in greece) must go to europeans,or americans with euro passports(like pangos,or draper,or lafayette,or something like that)
ps2. we might get zach auguste as 3rd center if he gets greek passport,but that will take a lot of time

Do we know the reliability of eurobasket? It lists Claver as our player.

Are agents involved in this site?

[Mr Chacho]

Calathes-James
Pappas-Feldeine
X-Charalampopoulos
X-Gist-Fotsis
Bourousis-Singleton

Great squad at the moment. You will need a stepahead of Pappas but I think that he is capable (he was playing at Real Madrid youth teams and he did a great great game vs us 2 years ago), I hope he recovers completely of his injury. Good luck this season.

1 year ago.

now that bourousis is official it will be interesting to see what happens with claver because every source i see talks about done deal with him as well. journalists from our president's sites and newspaper were claiming all this time that its either bourousis or claver. we will find out soon i guess

we get 1 guard more in the roster you wrote. i guess (and hope) it will be kevin pangos from gran canaria. is he good enough for euroleague level?

He has a great potential, although he lacks experience. He also can play as SG and to see him in european giant can be great. He also has slovenian passport. Would be a very good signing for PAO.

Pangos could complement both James and Calathes in guard position.

I like Pao's roster a lot. But I think they still need some outside shooting and one more cutting wing (in addition to Feldeine) to utilize Bou to his maximum.

[Efesdxb]

By the signing of Bourousis, does this mean PAO no longer has an interest on Claver?

[GreenFan]

Nope. I'm reading that PAO is trying to get Claver too. It isn't like they are playing at the same position anyway. Personally, as a PAO fan, I'd rather have Claver than Bourousis, but having both it's the best case scenario.

[fasoulaki]

Does somebody know the reason why there were no negotiations between Bourousis and Oly? Is Oly management still upset due to Bouroussis insults which become public due to the wiretap affair? Or is it because Oly is playing nowadays without big center?

[mitsos13]

fasoulaki i would pick the first reason.

Great squad at the moment. You will need a stepahead of Pappas but I think that he is capable (he was playing at Real Madrid youth teams and he did a great great game vs us 2 years ago), I hope he recovers completely of his injury. Good luck this season.

There seems to be no problem with his injury any more. What he lacks in is consistency and a real pro mentality.

[mitsos13]

New rumours about not giving up the Claver case. Fingers crossed.

[LDK]

What about Vogioukas? Any rumors? Mayby he will sign with another Greece team?
