“Panathinaikos, for years, has got use to conquering titles, make its trophy case larger and larger and fill with pride its millions of trusties not only in Greece but also abroad.
This fills us with responsibility and it obligates us to quest for the best, day by day, year by year. We recognize the heavy duty of a team with such a vast effect and we are motivated to maintain a restless soul and always search for something more. Either inbounds of the court lines, either overall throughout the stadium, so as for our friends to enjoy a pleasant pastime next to the team either in other departments.
Granted all this we cannot feel anything but proud in view of our China tour, where we will not be restricted to the competitive matter of things, but we will state a dynamic presence in versatile events in view of spreading the Panathinaikos brand name in the most populated country of the world but also to every corner of the earth.
Panathinaikos is the first European basketball team ever to cross Chinese border lines. It was not easy to accomplish, however we wanted it and we achieved it and this proves further than our persistence, also Panathinaikos’ dynamic.
It is a great honor for us and we wish to thank everyone in charge, but also greet people in China that will be hosting us, accommodating us while we from our behalf will return the love with the attitude and the mentality that is appropriate for the most prestigious European team”.
