Who should be on the team? Should there be a coaching change? Lots to discuss.
While it is obviously too early to speculate, I will do it anyway.
Here is a possible "best available" squad for next year:
Calathes, Mantzaris
Spanoulis, Zisis, Sloukas
Papanikolaou, Antetokounmpo
Printezis, Kaimakoglou
Bourousis
Young players that might be invited to training camp: Bochoridis, Papapetrou, Agravanis, Diamantakos, Charalampopoulos, Papagiannis
Spanoulis' presence makes Vasiliadis expendable.
Backup center will be a problem. Some options:
a) Sofo and Koufos are problematic: will they ever be considered for the NT again?
b) we promote (very) young players like Diamantakos and hope they develop quickly.
c) we rely for the next couple of years on mediocre alternatives like Vougioukas, Glyniadakis, Mavroeidis, Kavvadas.
d) we rely on small schemes and select a third PF as a quasi-center: Mavrokefalidis, Tsairelis, Bogris.
Here is a possible "rebuilding squad":
Mantzaris, Bochoridis
Sloukas, Papapetrou
Papanikolaou, Antetokounmpo, Charalampopoulos
Printezis, Kaimakoglou
Diamantakos, Papagiannis
