Not a single comment on Real:Pao? This says a lot about this years Pao team.

Result was expected. This is my comment.

They got close for a bit but an awful 4th quarter for Pana....They looked soft to be honest...

Yup. Sad but true.

We might see another Real:Pao playoff series, if Pao finishes season strong.

[Adon]

Quite expected. It's not just the difference of quality between Pao's and Real's roster. Real is a well built machine to the point of being finished. Same coach, same core players, good additions every season. That's how great teams are created.

Pao on the other hand is in a continuous "rebuilt", in fact random changes instead of any real progress. Some months ago, I was expecting a better performance than what we have watched in the last games. And a couple of good transfers. Not Rautins, that's for sure.

We are talking a lot about benches, but it’s much easier explanation. Put Campazzo and Tavares in Pao instead of Calathes-Papagiannis or in Fener instead of Sloukas-Vesely and both clubs would become top4 contenders instantly and Real would have regressed.

10th consecutive win against PAO, and Laso is 5-0 against Pitino.

Real Madrid is the worst possible opponent for PAO in the playoffs. Tavares always plays good against them.

Exactly, if we make the playoffs, we have to avoid Real. Not that we would ever be favourites against any of the Top4, but with Real and our current past meetings history, the chances are 1%.

[DraxDomax]

I think everyone's looking to avoid Real.
The finals will be Real-Efes and I think Real's system will have by then figured out the Larkin problem.

Congrats. Another win vs a team with one third of your budget, which is targeting to be in top-8. That's something!
And the comment about the record of Lasso vs Pitino is meaningless for anyone except you, as it seems.

Can we please stop with this bullshit, comparing Pao's players salaries with Real's whole budget.

I guess you're totally unimpressed with Obra's era in Pao too?
