He also opens up about the semifinal mindset, the Championship Game against Real Madrid, the free throws that helped close the final, life in Greece, and why winning with Olympiacos felt bigger than basketball.

Who’s BUILT for PLAYOFFS? | Favorites on Paper, Pressure on Court
The EuroLeague playoff picture comes into sharp focus in Episode 7 of EuroLeague & Friends, as the discussion moves from regular season narratives to Final Four expectations. Are there truly four teams a step ahead of the rest?
The panel examines the cases for Olympiacos B.C., Real Madrid Baloncesto, Fenerbahçe Beko, and Panathinaikos B.C. - and whether the gap is real or about to be tested in the playoffs. One of the season’s defining stories is the emergence of Valencia Basket, led by Coach of the Year Pedro Martínez, whose fast-paced system and consistency pushed them into the top tier conversation.
The episode also dives into:
• Why consistency keeps Olympiacos among the elite
• How Real Madrid’s experience still makes them dangerous
• What makes Fenerbahçe and Panathinaikos legitimate title contenders
As the playoffs begin, one theme is clear: no series will be simple, and every contender will have to earn its path.
