The second Basket League final, with his victory Olympic with 91-83 over Panathinaiche went second, after what happened on the sidelines of the match at the SEF.
The second “act” in the Olympics with Panathinaikos In the Basket League, he was tarnished by the pictures with Dimitris Giannakopoulos at the beginning of the match and the insults of the fans in Costas Sloukas and Ergkin Ataman, as well as the statements of the Angelopoulos brothers after the victory of the Piraeus.
The final became a “rodeo” both inside and outside the parquet, so there is a great deal of concern about how the two teams will continue and, above all, how the series of winning the championship in Greece will be completed.
The loss in the parquet with Ataman and Slouka
Tensions were not even avoided in the parquet, with the match finale being episodic. Panathinaikos were furious with the refereeing of the match and erupted after a foul given to Tyler Dorsey. Ergkin Ataman and the … half a Panathinaikos bench entered the parquet to protest, resulting in a series of technical penalties and the elimination of the Turkish “clover” technician.
The SEF thus got “fire”, with abusive slogans for Turkey, but also to Kostas Sloukaswho did not hesitate to respond to Olympiacos fans, showing the 4 Euroleague, which he has won in his huge career.
There were tensions between the players of the two teams to end the clash with the victory of Olympiacos 91-83. Ataman, of course, continued the issue in his statements after the end of the show, with “shots” at Piraeus fans for the insults to Turkey, which was not left unattended by the Angelopoulos brothers.
The “attack” of the Angelopoulos brothers
After all that happened with Dimitris Giannakopoulos, but also Ergkin Ataman, George and Panagiotis Angelopoulos went to the cameras to talk about everything and broke out against their two opponents. With a witness and the General Manager of the Olympic Olympian, Nikos Lepeniotis, the two brothers “attacked” their counterpart to Panathinaikos and requested that the authorities intervene to leave basketball substantially.
More specifically, the Angelopoulos brothers said: “To start with Mr. Giannakopoulos, to say the facts, as they have done, because we have not heard what was said. In our positions in the official. We will say this at a press conference for another time, now we will say what happened tonight.
So he continues to do k@lodies to me and Panagiotis. This is Giannakopoulos. Not to be confused and not to be confused and some high -ranking. He has said when he arrives on the court: ‘Don’t think about coming to greet me’. There was no such intention that we would not be confused again.
And then, while he is under the basket and he is told to go out … If I make a mistake to tell me … Dimitris Giannakopoulos said in an amok state under the basket – to finish this fairy tale here, which unfortunately you have responsibilities. Both you and the state have responsibilities, because we are quite fooled in sports and everyone writes ‘such’. To say exactly what has happened to Dimitris Giannakopoulos, whom some are caressing, some cover, give him things and change him and laws. Well, let’s say what has happened for everyone to take on their responsibilities. Pontius Pilate’s tactic can no longer be tolerated, neither by us nor by Olympiacos.
So she said she would catch my daughter, do her, show her and I will see, Nikos Lepeniotis is a witness. This is Dimitris Giannakopoulos in Greece. Nikos Lepeniotis is a witness and five others. These were done under the basket. The guy is vomiting, for the Panathinaikos to enjoy him.
Anyone who has the like to go out to talk, to go out as a man to speak. The government’s responsibility is frightening. We have taken actions worldwide. After doing so, he leaves the court. When he realized the intention of OEM Olympiakos to file a lawsuit, he left, fled. Now we say today. No one can play with us here with Olympiacos.
Then he is ordering to escape because the prosecutor has ordered to be arrested, because he is running not to say what. He was escorted by two cars, then a police officer in front of the car and thus drags the chef. All this is in video recorded. These are first.
On the issue of Mr Ataman who said that Olympiacos fans are bastards. No bastard can say the Olympic fans. A lawsuit has been filed. Mr. Giannakopoulos is sought in the context of the self -esteem. We demand that it be arrested immediately. “
The episode of Dimitris Giannakopoulos in the SEF
Dimitris Giannakopoulos’ presence in the SEF was the one that set fire to the match and led to the “black” scenes that followed in the Basket League finals. It all started about 10 minutes before the jam at the SEF race, when Dimitris Giannakopoulos headed to the secretariat, demanding that a derogatory slogan heard against him by Olympiacos fans.
According to ERT, “the referees demanded the departure from the field due to a gesture to the stand.” Dimitris Giannakopoulos did not want to leave the stadium, but the referees were unfaithful and eventually the game started with a slight delay.
THE Dimitris Giannakopoulos left the parquetcontinuing to complain to the referees, that the abusive slogans were not recorded.

The Panathinaikos informed that Mr Giannakopoulos’ reaction emerged after derogatory slogans for his daughter and explained that there was no miscarriage of the strong man in the team, as he chose to go out of the field in order to discuss with the prosecutor.
Dimitris Giannakopoulos was furious in the locker room, persistently asking for either his arrest, or to be allowed to return to the stadium.
“Either arrest me or let me get on the pitch,” Dimitris Giannakopoulos said in a video posted by police in the bubble.
“They have been forced out out, the only thing the law allows is to arrest me and hit me. They don’t let me go.
You have no right to touch me, or arrest me or let me enter the court. I don’t want your proposal, you are neither my mother nor your father.
You’re a police officer. Let me go, don’t handle. They were finding my child. I hear you 45 minutes to work for us all. They continue their handling. I respect the police, I help her wherever I can. I want to get in.
Enjoy your police Mr. Chrysochoid and you Mr Mitsotakis the people you have put in. Because they don’t arrest me, because they know I’m right.
I want to go inside the court, it’s free movement. If there is a lawsuit, you can arrest me. I cause violence? Angelopoulos do not lift a microphone to say don’t find kids, ”he said.
OEM Olympiakos informed that Dimitris Giannakopoulos’s arrest process has begunby order of the prosecutor after what happened to the SEF, but the Panathinaikos CA denied it.

The Angelopoulos brothers then officially stated that the Panathinaikos president left the SEF to avoid arrest while the Greens supported for their part, that no one had informed him of possible arrest and that Giannakopoulos left.
The next day with the third final at OAKA
And all this, while there are new finals for the “battle” of the championship. The toxicity between the two teams has already “tarnished” the Basket League finals and now the trophy of the trophy by Panathinaikos or Olympiacos has been second.
The next day is full of concern about what will happen to the rest of the finals, fears of stopping to fight and even worse than the fans of the two teams. A new punishment by Dimitris Giannakopoulos is already expected by the disciplinary bodies, but also for the SEF, after what the Piraeus fans did.
The state’s intervention now seems necessary to complete the Greek basketball finals of the finals, as the next match at the OAKA is already boiling, both for the referees and for both teams, with Olympiacos going to Marousi in a “war” climate. The discussion of basketball is going to be secondary …
