Djordjevic : "I am Satisfied"

The coach of Panathinaikos, Aleksandar Djordjevic stated after the game against Zalgiris Kaunas: "I am satisfied because we has a solid game and kept our seriousness and team spirit for 40 minutes. When you practice well, then you play well, this is the story. Our defense worked very well in all aspects, including the double team, the aggressive style and the hedge-out against their pick-n-roll game. I also had the opportunity to give some time to our young players and open the rotation. Antonis Fotsis didn't play because I would like to give him some rest and play more with James Gist, who came back after his injury. This is what I am planning to do soon with Diamantidis, who will stay with us at least for five more years (laughing). We play well enough at home in such a beuatiful atmosphere, but there's no doubt that we have to improve our perfomance in road games."
