The Greeks are back in the big show for the first time since 2012 but will they make a big impression?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>They have the most known owner in all of Euroleague basketball. Alongside him is a coach with experience of winning it all. The roster is radically different to a year ago. Can all of this mix together to deliver the championship to Panathinaikos?<\/p>\n<h4>DPG commands your attention<\/h4>\n<p>For most Euroleague fans, it\u2019s a challenge to remember the name of the owner or GM of any team other than the one they support. Many will know the name of whoever fills that spot for their biggest rival. Beyond that? It\u2019s not really important.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody knows Dimitris Giannakoupolos. The man is a walking contradiction. DPG loves to work out an awful lot, yet he\u2019s also rather fond of a cigarette. Giannaokoupolos is clearly a big fan of meditation and relaxation, yet the very reason you know his name is because of how often he explodes emotionally.<\/p>\n<p>Having a character like that off the court is, at least in moderation, good for basketball. He may cause headaches for Euroleague\u2019s top brass but he gets people talking. Giannakoupolos demands attention. Especially as he\u2019s not just a bag of hot air. The Panathinaikos owner is a successful businessman who just happens to bleed green. His obsession with bringing Panathinaikos back to the top of the sport took on a new look this past offseason. The spending came, and then some, and it\u2019s been quite the journey.<\/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>He is the one called Ataman<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/iKIuLP-k6MI?si=NhqOStbSn0nMYWIV\" rel=\"noopener\" >Terrible attempts at musical tributes aside<\/a>, Ergin Ataman\u2019s signing as head coach was a big marker laid down by Panathinaikos last summer. Having led Anadolu Efes to three Final Fours and two Euroleague titles, he was the type of signing that signalled the intent Giannakopoulos to accelerate things.<\/p>\n<p>The Turkish head coach has serious talent at his disposal. The other new arrivals <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/record-breaking-kostas-sloukas-saves-the-season-for-panathinaikos-8420\/\" rel=\"noopener\" >included Kostas Sloukas<\/a>, Kendrick Nunn, and Matthew Lessort. There were, understandable, teething issues. A full roster overhaul is going to come with bumps along the way. Still, he found a way to make it come together.<\/p>\n<p>The process is still unfolding. Watching Panathinaikos, it looks like they still haven\u2019t got all of the pieces in place. That\u2019s not just a matter of personal but one of chemistry. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/kendrick-nunn-punches-the-ticket-to-berlin-for-panathinaikos-8423\/\" rel=\"noopener\" >Surviving a gruelling five game series with Maccabi Tel Aviv<\/a> certainly aided that process. There still feels like there\u2019s more to come, not in stratagems or looks but in execution.<\/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>There\u2019s only one Matthew Lessort<\/h4>\n<p>Despite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/matthias-lessort-has-to-cook-to-save-the-season-for-panathinaikos-8418\/\" rel=\"noopener\" >pointing out his free throw issues<\/a> during the playoff series, I\u2019m an enormous fan of Matthew Lessort\u2019s game. Few bigs have his combination of strength and quickness. Certainly nobody in Euroleague is quite like him.<\/p>\n<p>That positive for Panathinaikos brings with it an issue that comes back to chemistry. How they adjust when Lessort needs a rest is a concern. Real Madrid arguably have a similar issue with sitting Walter \u2018Edy\u2019 Tavares, only Los Blancos have been dealing with that problem for far longer. They can\u2019t replicate Tavares but they can work on ensuring the aggregate isn\u2019t diminished.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, in terms of schemes, the Greens basically need to survive the minutes they have with Lessort sitting. If Ataman can improve the execution and blend things more while Lessort sits, then there are real opportunities for PAO.<\/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.

It\u2019s rare that I come to a Euroleague Final Four thinking that of everyone.<\/p>\n<p>For PAO, the positive is that they have what it takes to work through whatever unfinished parts of the project remain. Panathinaikos is a side that understands its flaws and doesn\u2019t overcompensate. Ataman, for all his fiery outward persona, is a cold and calculating operator. That brain isn\u2019t working on something new to deliver in Berlin, it\u2019s on making sure that what is already installed works to optimal levels.<\/p>\n<p>Dimitris Giannakopoulos will, undoubtedly, get worked up from the stands no matter what happens. Ataman will throw his arms and occasionally shout angrily yet with perfect diction. The Greens know who they are and how to make it work best for them. At this stage of the season, all you can ask for is that and a clean bill of health.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/panathinaikos-return-to-euroleagues-top-table-now-what-8432\/\">Panathinaikos return to Euroleague\u2019s top table, now what?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/\">BallinEurope<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h2><b>Commercials Cooperation Advertisements:<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><br>(1) IT Teacher IT Freelance<br> <\/p>\r\n<a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITTeacherITFreelance-Website.png alt=IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\/><\/a><p><a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/findteacher>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427! <\/a><br>\r\n\r\n\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a -\u6559\u80b2 -IT \u96fb\u8166\u73ed\u201d ( IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 ) \u63d0\u4f9b\u4e00\u500b\u65b9\u4fbf\u7684\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a \u6559\u80b2\u5e73\u53f0, \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u4fe1\u606f\u6280\u672f, \u96fb\u8166 \u8001\u5e2b, IT freelance \u548c programming expert. \u8b93\u5927\u5bb6\u65b9\u4fbf\u5730\u5c31\u80fd\u627e\u5230\u5408\u9069\u7684\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2, \u96fb\u8166\u73ed, \u5bb6\u6559, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b.  <br>\r\n\r\nWe are a education and information platform which you can find a IT private tutorial teacher or freelance. <br>\r\n\r\nAlso we provide different information about information technology, Computer, programming, mobile, Android, apple, game, movie, anime, animation\u2026 \r\n<\/p>\n<p><br>(2) ITSec<br> <\/p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITSec-Main-Promotion-Image.png alt= https:\/\/itsec.vip\/\r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers.  \r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training.\/><\/a> \r\n<br><br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip>www.ITSec.vip<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/sraa.com.hk>www.Sraa.com.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.hk>www.ITSec.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/penetrationtest.hk>www.Penetrationtest.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itseceu.uk>www.ITSeceu.uk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers. <br><br>\r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training. \r\n<br><br>Contact us right away. <br><br>Email (Prefer using email to contact us): <br>SalesExecutive@ITSec.vip<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"667\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ballineurope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/DPG-having-a-normal-one-1-667x667.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-image size-post-image wp-post-image\" alt=\"Dimitris Giannakopoulos and Panathinaikos are back at the Euroleague Final Four but what's their ceiling?\"><\/div>\n<p>In the first of our deep dives into all four competitors at the Euroleague Final Four, Emmet Ryan takes a look at Panathinaikos.
