Fall detonates the dunk! Motorola Magic Moment
Olympiacos started red-hot with Fall scoring twice inside – including a dunk-and-one after he blocked a shot at the other end – and also assisting baskets for Papanikolaou and Thomas Walkup for a 10-2 lead. Nedovic responded with a jumper and an alley-oop feed to Papagiannis, but Fall scored two more baskets and Vezenkov added a three-point play to make it 17-6. Long-range strikes from Tyler Dorsey, Livio Jean-Charles and Papanikolaou continued the hosts’ magnificent first quarter, before Sloukas also hit from deep and Dorsey beat the first-quarter buzzer with a tip-in for a 38-13 score.
The second quarter started with more of the same as Martin scored close the basket and Papanikolaou netted on a fastbreak. Papagiannis from inside and Nedovic from long-range gave Panathinaikos some offense, but a triple from McKissic maintained a massive advantage, 47-18. Another three-pointer from Sloukas brought up Olympiacos’s half-century midway through the second quarter, before two more baskets from Papagiannis and a three-point play from Macon boosted the visitors to 53-25. Another Nedovic to Papagiannis alley-oop kept Panathinaikos moving, but 4 more points for Martin took Olympiacos to a 58-33 halftime lead.
A tip-in from Eleftherios Bochoridis and a triple from Macon started the second half, before Vezenkov’s inside score was bettered by another Macon three, a Papagiannis jumper and another Nedovic triple, making it 60-46 after a 2-13 run. But the Panathinaikos fightback would not last. Vezenkov sparked Olympiacos from deep, Sloukas added a mid-range jumper and Vezenkov dunked off a steal. Papanikolaou added a stepback three to extend the lead to 70-48 before Fall scored twice, Sloukas drove for a layup and Vezenkov netted in transition for a 15-1 run and a 78-51 lead at the end of the third.
Vezenkov from close-range and Sloukas from deep extended the lead to 30 points, 83-53, before McKissic added another triple as the home fans started their celebrations early. Papagiannis scored twice for Panathinaikos, but McKissic and Vezenkov made the margin 90-57. Nedovic and Papanikolaou traded triples before Martin twice dunked for the biggest lead of the game, 97-62. Georgios Printezis came off the bench for a layup, and after 5 more points for Macon, the hosts took their tally into three figures with free throws from McKissic to seal a superb performance.
