Now we get one more time the home court advantage with the big win in Belgrade. We won many big games this season in OAKA against many big teams, Maccabi also is a very good team and we will play 100 percent of course to win the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Panagiotis Kalaitzakis also spoke about the importance of the game for the franchise as a whole, &#8220;It\u2019s a very important game, not only for this year but for this decade for the club. We will have 25K people and we have already played them 7 times and this will be our 8th time this year, so it\u2019s not just about basketball but who wants it more. We will wait it from the first minutes and play goat defense and get the crowd into the game. We are very focused and very well prepared and we are just waiting to begin the game on Tuesday night.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_109741\" style=\"width: 838px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-109741\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0468.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"828\" height=\"899\" class=\"size-full wp-image-109741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0468.jpeg 828w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0468-610x662.jpeg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 828px) 100vw, 828px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-109741\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ioannis Papapetrou &#8211; Photo credit: Nate Dror<\/p><\/div><br \/>\nNo doubt playing at home will be a big plus for Panathinaikos as ioannis Papapetrou explained, \u201cI expect this place will get very loud, I expect an amazing atmosphere and I expect a great showing from our fans and I expect my team to come out and be very aggressive. There will be a a lot of fans who will show up and I am happy that my family will be there as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although Maccabi Tel Aviv will be without their star guard Wade Baldwin for this matchup, Kalaitzakis knows that the yellow-and-blue still has plenty of dangerous players, \u201cThey are a very well coached team have some talented players, we know Baldwin won\u2019t be able to play and they have other guards as we have seen in this series in John Dibartolomeo and Tamir Blatt as well as Brown. They can score the ball which they have done all series long. They have punished our turnovers and scored on the fast break so we have to be ready. The game will be about fighting and who wants it more.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_109747\" style=\"width: 586px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-109747\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0465.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"640\" class=\"size-full wp-image-109747\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-109747\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ioannis Papapetrou &#8211; Photo credit: Nate Dror<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n\u201cWe are expecting a very aggressive game as we understand that it\u2019s game 5 of the playoffs and the winner will go to the Final Four,\u201d Papapetrou added. \u201cMacccabi will come in here very aggressive and they will give everything that they have. They have given us very hard fights the entire series and we expect nothing less now. We will be ready, we will be prepared and we will give more than 100%.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Ataman, his focus will be on his own players as well as keeping the mistakes to a minimum on the court, \u201cI look only at my team&#8217;s players, we&#8217;ll see which players will be on the court and we&#8217;ll play our game, so it&#8217;s not important for me to know who would play and who wouldn&#8217;t play. Every game we have big character players, every game some players play better and some players give a lower performance.

I&#8217;m just thinking to make more points than Maccabi.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>While there will no doubt be plenty of pressure, Kalaitzakis doesn\u2019t quite see game 5 in that particular way, \u201cThere are other things in life and other people that have way more pressure than playing basketball for which we are paid. There will be a lot of fans and this is what we all dream about. If I speak about myself, I dream about these moments, playing game 5 in front of thousands of fans so I don\u2019t think it\u2019s pressure, but it\u2019s an opportunity to prove ourselves.\u201d<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_109745\" style=\"width: 838px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-109745\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0466.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"828\" height=\"957\" class=\"size-full wp-image-109745\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0466.jpeg 828w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_0466-610x705.jpeg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 828px) 100vw, 828px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-109745\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Panagiotis Kalaitzakis &#8211; Photo credit: Nate Dror<\/p><\/div><br \/>\nAtaman may be satisfied as to where his team is now, but the 2x Euroleague champion bench boss isn\u2019t ready to stop just here, \u201cTuesday is a different game between two good teams and I believe that all season we deserved to be in this position.
