Fenerbahce downed AS Monaco to, by a couple of hours, become the first road team ever to win a Game 5.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This was a weird one. Samuel Beckett would certainly have approved of the surreality. Fortunately, BiE has a less than sober Irishman to break down what happened.<\/p>\n<h4>The Waiting for Godot game<\/h4>\n<p>Don\u2019t worry Fenerbahce fans, we\u2019re going to get to the cool bits soon. This scribe however is Irish. Not only is he Irish but he is writing in the style of Brendan Behan, that is to say with some pints in him. Moreover, he is a fan of the surreal.<\/p>\n<p>My countryman, Samuel Beckett, was an utter master of the surreal. I once ran a football team named for one of his plays. Real Krapp, named for Krapp\u2019s last tape. I figured that one day I\u2019d call on him to describe what I witnessed on the hardwood. Yet it was still a surprise to see it be such as it was on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>First there was the clock stopping mid play with nobody noticing late in the third. That alone would have merited Beckett. Yet, no, Euroleague and the powers that be had more in store for us early in the fourth.<\/p>\n<p>What appeared to be a man with some connection to AS Monaco was showing something on his phone to the refs. Nobody seemed to know what was going on. Eventually it had no impact bar an interminable delay. Thus, with scores tied, it was like the teams were beginning anew. What we didn\u2019t realise was that our protagonist, Nick Calathes, was unmoved by it all.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In Post Ad by Rob --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8330822894995250\" data-ad-slot=\"1076584095\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h4>To the moment<\/h4>\n<p>Nick Calathes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/nick-calathes-has-found-his-perfect-role-at-the-perfect-time-for-fenerbahce-8419\/\" rel=\"noopener\" >has evolved his game<\/a> under Sarunas Jasikevicius. It is a form that has allowed him to add years to his importance on the floor. Calathes is far more secure with the ball now. He takes fewer risks. Yet he still passes as well as anyone in Euroleague.<\/p>\n<p>That wasn\u2019t the man Fenerbahce needed late in overtime against AS Monaco. No, they needed the old dog. The guy that never saw a three point look he didn\u2019t like. A man for whom joie de vie and joie de mort are one and the same.<\/p>\n<p>Boom. Headshot. Mr Foles is going to have to retire his moniker. There\u2019s a new Big Dick Nick and he plays for a team in Istanbul. To find that confidence, that vigour, in the moment is why we love the greats. Remember, for all his success Calathes has fewer Final Fours than you might think on his resume. This was a big moment.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>BallinEurope is ramping up its YouTube game this season. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/ballineurope\"  rel=\"noopener\">Subscribe to our channel now<\/a> for player exclusives, analysis videos, and much more.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>This was quite the way to make history<\/h4>\n<p>There\u2019s quite a lovely chap who goes by the name alp on Twitter.

Through 19 attempts, 20 if you count the year of there being Euroleague and Suproleague, nobody had won a Game 5 on the road. It was understandable that Fenerbahce fans, as foul calls kept going AS Monaco\u2019s way, would fear this would be no different.<\/p>\n<p>To do so in overtime, with a huge steal under pressure to seal it, was simply extraordinary. There, of course, was Nick Calathes in that fight at the end. He never let up even after his moment.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>BallinEurope has a book, a real life actual book called I Like it Loud, and you can buy it on Amazon now.

He has asked Nick Calathes, Scottie Wilbekin, and more to change their games significantly. It hasn\u2019t always been easy and has involved disappointment along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Yet this roster, this group of men, now have something tangible to point to. They went the full five games a year ago. It didn\u2019t work out on the road. Things looked rough after the way they lost Game 4. Yet they showed the character and temperament to find a way to beat AS Monaco and seal the series.<\/p>\n<p>That we get a clash full of storylines in Berlin is a bonus. It\u2019s the Zeljko Obradovic derby. It\u2019s Jasikevicius against a club that loves him. Of course, it&#8217;s also Fenerbahce against Ergin Ataman, again. This is all dessert, one well earned by Fener. Enjoy the celebrations.
