Real Madrid v Olympiacos Piraeus (2024-05-24T19:00:00.000Z)

These teams have played a number of memorable games in recent seasons with Olympiacos taking a five-game playoff series last season and Fenerbahce triumphing over the Reds in the 2017 championship game.

Controlling the pace figures to be a key point as the teams have very different styles. Olympiacos favors a grind-it-out defensive game, while Fenerbahce has been making three-pointers this season at a record pace. They split their two regular-season meetings, with each team winning a nail-biter at home. Which style will prevail in the third-place game?

### Georgios Bartzokas, Olympiacos head coach

"This a of course a game that nobody wants to play, but we are professionals and we have to treat it with the respect it deserves. We will compete to honor our fans and the competition. It is a good game to use to give more playing time to the players who did not play much on Friday and to prepare for our next domestic game on Thursday."

### Sarunas Jasikevicius, Fenerbahce head coach

"It's the only thing left to show respect for the people who are traveling, who paid the tickets. And as a competitors, the goal is in front of you, the opponent is in front of you. We should try to put the best game possible out there on the court. Usually it's the game \[winner\] who is more motivated. Like we said, it doesn't change anything, being third or fourth, but you should always try to compete for a higher place, and let's see if we can do that."

### Giannoulis Larentzakis, Olympiacos player 

"Of course, both teams had really bad losses or heavy losses or difficult losses in semifinals. I guess that bouncing back and forgetting what happened and try to play regularly. We must forgot about what happened and play, and we have domestic league games, that's our goal, that's it. It is a success to go to the Final Four for the third year in a row, but we are Olympiacos and also want to win the trophy." 

### Nigel Williams-Goss, Olympiacos player 

"You have to respect the game and respect the people that paid a lot of money to travel and come watch us. Honestly, we haven't talked too much about the game yet. Obviously, we have practice right now, so we'll see what the game plan is and what the coaches have in store for us and whatever they want us to do, then that's what we'll do. I think the biggest thing is just staying healthy. That's the most important thing for both teams. Obviously, we still have our domestic league playoffs after this so definitely, we don't want to see any injuries on either side. And um, like I said, just to stay healthy before the domestic league playoffs. I think I said it beforehand, any of the four teams that make the Final Four can consider it a good season, I think especially this year in the early season with so many good teams and so many teams spending a lot of money to have the ambitions to be here, only four of us were here. Especially with our injuries and everything like that, for us to be here was big. We felt like we had a team good enough to win it, but didn't play well enough yesterday, and so you have to regroup and try to come back next year."

### Tyler Dorsey, Fenerbahce player

"I love playing basketball, I love getting up and down. That’s what this game is about. I didn’t play much last game, so if I get a chance, I am ready to get up and down. I know Olympiacos’s system by heart. They are a hard-nosed team. It depends on what kind of energy they bring to the game. They are a really good team, really coached well. I pretty much know all those guys. They are a hard team to beat if you don’t play with heart and passion."

### Nick Calathes, Fenrbache player

"It’s a tough game to play. We are going to try our best to win. We have great fans who came out here to support us and we want to give them something to be happy about."

Georgios Bartzokas, Olympiacos: 'We will compete to honor our fans'

The Real Madrid' star spent half a season under Panathianikos's head coach at Anadolu Efes in 2021. And it did not go well 

Recalling when Ataman coached Dzanan Musa at Efes

In 2021, Anadolu Efes Istanbul signed a young and talented [Dzanan Musa ](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/euroleague/players/dzanan-musa/006540/)to play under head coach Ergin Ataman. Efes managed to lift the EuroLeague trophy at the end of that season but Musa saw very limited playing time, appearing in less than 12 total minutes over four EuroLeague games with nary a moment on court in the postseason. 

Three years later, Musa and Coach Ataman will be on opposite sides when Real Madrid and Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens take the floor to play the 2024 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Championship Game.

When Musa left Efes, many thought his career had reached a dead end despite a promising start in which he was considered one of the top prospects in European basketball. Musa became the youngest player ever to win the EuroCup Rising Star award in the 2017-18 season when he played for Cedevita Zagreb. However, playing sparingly over a season and a half with Brooklyn in the NBA and then with Efes, his prospects had diminished. 

"I said it many times. I came in the middle of the season and I couldn't expect to play as much, but you know my character, you know Ergin's character, so we had some words at the practices and outside of practice. But it is all respect from me to Ergin. They won... I mean, we won the title that year in EuroLeague so that is something you have to respect," Musa said at the Official Championship Game Press Conference, in which he still struggled to feel identified with Efes in 2020-21, using 'they' instead of 'we'. "They went back-to-back and he did an amazing job, so you have to respect that, and I learned a lot from him, Vasa \[Micic\], Shane \[Larkin\]. They helped me a lot to be in this position that I am right now."

Dzanan Musa at press confreence

Things changed for Musa changed very quickly when he left Istanbul. He signed with Spanish side Rio Breogan and had a breakout season, earning 2021-22 Spanish League MVP honors. Full of confidence again, Musa joined Real Madrid and was chosen to the 2022-23 EuroLeague First Team after averaging 14.8 points and a PIR of 15.9 in 41 games and conquering the EuroLeague title. This season, he broke the club's single-game scoring record in the 21st century, scoring 40 points in an instant-classic, four-overtime victory against Efes.

Even though Ataman led Efes to its first EuroLeague title that season, he has regrets about not giving Musa more playing time and hopes that is not in the back of his mind when the teams fight for the EuroLeague title on Sunday.

"Sometimes, as a coach, you make some mistakes. That season, OK, we won the EuroLeague. Dzanan came in the middle of the season, it was his first year after the NBA and unfortunately, I didn't give him a lot of time. It was bad for me and for Efes that we lost him and he went to Spain, and now he is one of the stars in Real Madrid, but I hope that tomorrow, on the court, he won't take the revenge for this!"

People laughed, but Musa could not resist answering.

"We will see about it"

The Real Madrid' star spent half a season under Panathinaikos's head coach at Anadolu Efes in 2021. And it did not go well 

Real Madrid v Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens (2024-05-26T18:00:00.000Z)

Nolan Traore is now the record holder for most points in a single ANGT Finals game after he poured in 45 points in U18 PFBB INSEP Paris’s thrilling 101-96 victory over U18 FC Barcelona to send the French team to the ANGT Championship Game. 

Traore connected on 14-of-22 shots and 13-of-16 free throws while also picking up 6 rebounds, 9 assists, 1 steal and 10 fouls drawn for a PIR of 50. Traore’s scoring output surpassed the previous high of 39 points by Nikola Topic of U18 Crvena Zvezda Belgrade against U18 Real Madrid last season. 

“He had a fantastic game. He’s our leader. He played like a pro, and I am very proud of him,” PFBB head coach Lamine Kebe said of Traore, who last Sunday scored 25 points playing for Saint Quentin in the playoffs against LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne. 

Nolan Traore breaks the finals scoring record

“That was a great game from the start to the finish. I scored a lot of points but I am really just happy that we won,” said Traore.

About setting the record, he said: “It’s cool, but the only thing is we got the win. If I have to score 45 points then I have to score 45 points.”

Traore’s PIR of 50 tied him for fourth place in ANGT Finals history with Alessandro Piazza from 2005. Luigi Datome holds the ANGT Finals single-game PIR record with 54 in 2005. The all-time ANGT single game PIR record is Nikola Mirotic’s 84 in 2008-09.

A heavyweight finale to the regular season sees Olympiacos battling to realise their top-four ambitions with a visit from a Fenerbahce team that can no longer fight for that prize. The Reds boast the league's best defensive record, (74.8 ppg allowed), yet the guests leads in three-point accuracy (39.5%)

Olympiacos, Fenerbahce seek to end season on winning note

For the first time since the current competition format was introduced in 2016, the top two teams from the regular season will meet in the championship game. Real Madrid topped the standings all seasons after winning its first 10 games and finished with a 27-7 mark while Panathinaikos soared late to place second at 23-11.

Though the teams split their regular-season clashes, with each side winning on the road, Los Blancos had owned the Greens before that, winning 16 of 17 games between them. Of course, this Panathinaikos squad is much different from the squads that Real feasted on.

Among a handful of interesting potential matchups in this game will be between French national team centers Vincent Poirier of Real Madrid and Mathias Lessort of Panathinaikos. There are also the Argentinian playmakers, Facu Campazzo of Real and Luca Vildoza of Panathinaikos, who were teammates last season at Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade. Real’s top scorer, Mario Hezonja, played for Panathinaikos in 2020-21 and Panathinaikos forward Juancho Hernangomez claimed a handful of medals with the Spanish national team alongside Sergio Rodriguez, Rudy Fernandez and Sergio Llull.

Panathinaikos' Jerian Grant has a key role to play for the Greek giants in breaking the rhythm of Real playmaker Facu Campazzo as his team looks to reaffirm top-spot, while we can also look forward to an all-action duel between explosive big men as Guerschon Yabusele goes up against Mathias Lessort.

Best moments from the championship game press conference

On the afternoon before the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Championship Game is played, the head coaches and a player from each team met at Uber Arena in Berlin for the official press conference. Representing Real Madrid were Coach Chus Mateo and forward Dzanan Musa. From Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens, it was Coach Ergin Ataman and All-EuroLeague center Mathias Lessort. Here’s what you need to know from the press conference.

### Back-to-back talk

Surprisingly, there wasn’t a whole lot said about Real Madrid’s chance to defend its crown. The first to bring it us was Musa in his opening statement.

“We are excited to be in a position to go back to back, We know it won’t be easy, but we will do our best give everything that we have to do that. I am excited for tomorrow’s game,” Musa said.

Ataman later brought it up, too, without being asked about it: “He wants to be back-to-back coach,” Ataman said referring to Mateo. “I don’t want to give him. The last record is that I am the back-to-back coach in the EuroLeague, so that is another motivation for me.”

### Coach Mateo, master of cliches

Coach Mateo once again proved to be a master of cliches, whom you must listen carefully to get a feel for his opinions. Among his quotes, Mateo said: “the most important thing is to take care of details”, “we are going to try our best and show our character”, “the most important thing is to never retreat”, "in a final can happen too many things”, “every game is totally different”. And then he said this gem, which takes puts several cliches together to make a masterful point.

“I think the details are sometimes not always small details. Sometimes rebounding is not such a small detail. Sometimes defense is not a small detail. Sometimes scoring from the outside is not a small detail. Sometimes to look for a good shot is not a small detail. We have to look for these important details to make a big difference. But sometimes you don’t know how it’s going to go.”

### Ataman on the fans

“I am very happy for the city Athens and for Panathinaikos fans. They believed in us all season. And now they enjoy this atmosphere. Yesterday they made a great atmosphere. They supported us, they made it fun. And as a team we like this. Actually, now this atmosphere is too strong for us. C’mon, we made the EuroLeague finals. We need to enjoy. After, we will see the results. I am happy all of our fans respect me and my players.”

### Musa on the fans

“We will only see in the arena our fans. Having fans in the stands is important, but when we go out onto the court it’s five against five and that’s our plan, to win the game on the court and not worry about the fans.”

### Mateo on the fans

“We like this ambience very much. This is basketball where the other teams’ fans want you to lose. And ours, even though they are a minority, we know they are here and we get messages from those at home watching. So we felt it very close even though they are not present. For people in basketball, if there is something that we love it’s that people from another team are against us always with fair play. They should scream and yell and make noise and try to make us lose our concentration. And for our fans to support us. I love this atmosphere.”

### Respect among the big men brotherhood

Upon being told that Real Madrid’s star center Walter Tavares heaped praise on him and called Lessort the best center in Europe this season, Lessort responded: “We have a mutual respect with Edy. It’s humbling for me to have a guy like this consider me the best big man in Europe. It’s an opinion and everybody has different opinions. To have your peers say something like this about you is always pleasing. I am happy to hear it from him… After the game, we will show respect. But during the game there will be a battle on the field.”

### The last time they met

In Round 27 in February, Panathinaikos defeated Real Madrid in the Spanish capital and Coach Ataman was asked about that game.

“For sure the regular-season game was not a game to compare because it was immediately after national team break, so both teams were not 100% ready,” he said. “The game that we won was not something to compare to the EuroLeague final.”

But later Ataman referenced the same game when asked about when he felt his team was going to make the Final Four.

“When we beat Real Madrid there,” he responded. “It was maybe their first loss on the season in the EuroLeague on their home court. This victory gave us big confidence and after that we understood well our capacity and we started to think we could be in the Final Four.”

### Mateo on his post-game celebration

The Real Madrid boss was asked about his habit of drinking a nice cold beer after games.

“I used to do it. Once we would finish a game and we won, I used to share a beer with my staff. I like beer.”

### Winning one more for Real Madrid’s vets

Coach Mateo was asked about coaching the trio of stars from hos old guard: Rudy Fernandez, Sergio Llull and Sergio Rodriguez.

“The time that I have been with them both as an assistant as well as head coach, I can only say good things about them. About how they convey things in the locker room, how they convey the desire to win, how they push their teammates when necessary and how they have encouraging words when they need it. How they are able to practice despite the thousands of battles that they have in their legs and little injuries that they have here and there. And how they are always there in key moments to help the team. How they have adapted to such a demanding calendar of 90 games. How they have transformed their bodies. Because Sergi Llull and Rudy had a very powerful body, they had to adapt their games to not having those physical abilities.

“I think we can take our hats off to all three of them. I would love for us to win for all of our players, but I would be especially happy for Rudy who is going to retire after this season. I would like him to have these back-to-back titles. And of course, for Deck, who is not here. Gaby Deck is an essential player on the team and we would not be there without him. And the players are going to do their best to compensate for his loss.”

Reigning champion Real finished group play with a perfect 3-0 record after rolling past Ulm 53-86. The Spanish powerhouse had already been secured a spot in Sunday’s ANGT Championship Game coming into the game. Declan Duru paced Real with 16 points and 7 rebounds, Hugo Gonzalez collected 14 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 steals and Sidi Gueye and Egor Demin both added 14 points. Noa Essengue and Luca Sarnowska both had 10 points for Ulm.
