EL 2023/24 - Gameday 33

[Levenspiel]

Mijatovic did just one smart move, that's replacing clown Jones with Oturu

I am still thinking that Efes needs new coach

Efes will have a new coach. I don't think even Mijatovic expects to keep the seat.

I’m not able to watch games this week but it seems like (following the play by play secretly) we had a hard time. Oh well, I’ll take it. I’m very impressed with how quickly this team turned around. I was not expecting it at all and I’m very happy we managed to be relevant again. Let’s see how we’ll show up in the playoffs.

Only Zvezda can save Partizan but I think they are done. I was right at the beggining of the season about them that they are not playoff team even though I expected them to be in the play-in.

[janketa]

Fener never gives up.
Efes secured play-in, so we just waiting for Real Madrid - Baskonia game too see if we gonna get all play-in teams tonight.

Not yet, they must beat CZ which isn't easy

In limited intervals I watched PAO, the defense looks solid (except for giving up offensive rebs), but the offense looks overly laborious to me. There was not a lot of flow or beauty. But somehow the wins kept coming. How did you guys see it? Was the team playing nice actually in the intervals that I must have missed?

That turnaround is impressive. no matter what. Preseason I thought PAO should be happy to make the playoffs, let alone the HCA.

Mijatovic's masterclass, WilbeKING can't beat alone Efes!!!

Every time Pao wins you are in some hype and you see the world through pink glasses

But yes, bringing Oturu instead of clown Jones was good move by Mijatovic

Regarding Fener best was Guduric then Papagiannis and Motley. In future look better at boxscore cos probably you didn't watch the game. Willbekin helped Efes with turnovers and this time I agree with you, he is realy kong. Without him Efes would lose the game

So you agree with me that Mijatovic's decisions brought win for Efes? WilbeKING was incredible

[janketa]

It's unbelievably that Efes has only two tie breaks and that's against Virtus and Baskonia. So if they win CZ, they will have HCA

[janketa]

So you agree with me that Mijatovic's decisions brought win for Efes? WilbeKING was incredible

Yes I agree that bringing Oturu instead of clown Jones was good move. Also I agree that Willbekin is king, he helped Larkin a lot to win game. Without his turnovers Efes would lose

And what about his 17 points on 55% FG?

Beating Zvezda away this season is not such a hard thing.
Fun fact is that Zvezda "plays that game for Partizan"...
In some of past posts you said that first time you will cheer for Fener opponent, i also probably would not mind at all if Zvezda lose next game

I agree with your observations. Without Sloukas we play very static basketball. It seems like we rely too much on the instinct of Nunn and whether Grant will find someone open after 20 seconds. With Sloukas the offense flows a little bit better but it still seems like a coin toss.

I guess it is "contagious"..
I bet you will hunt the players down if they dare win
I already picture it.. Nedovic first scorer of the game and Partizan at the play in.

Contagious?
Come on, you celebrated Llull shoot more then any Real fan..
Which is kinda unhealthy..
For Nedovic you are probably right that he will be first scorer at this game, he is one of the best EL players but when it "doesn't matter"..

Come on, you celebrated Llull shoot more then any Real fan..
Which is particulary unhealthy..

Celebrate for eternal enemy's defeat VS celebrate for your team's defeat in order for the eternal enemy to disqualify
Hard call..
