The Shot Clock stated that it discussed in the studio with coach Sfairopoulos about coaching, the operation of modern technical teams, and how one can become a coach at any level. He described the discussion as unique and said that Sfairopoulos, in one of his rare appearances, shared stories that had never been heard before. He added that the episode would be published on Sunday and that they were looking forward to seeing him again on the sidelines of the EuroLeague. #μπάσκετ #προπονητική #Ευρωλίγκα (translated)

The Shot Clock reported that Mbaye Ndiaye was first in the EuroLeague in successful closeouts after six games and had become an important player in crucial moments. In a 1,500-word article, the medium analyzed his performance and how, in its assessment, he fit into coach Bartzokas's system. https://t.co/16YeY2B2w6 #Euroleague #Basketball #SportsAnalysis (translated)

The Shot Clock wrote that, after four years of evaluating hundreds of players for the highest level, it considered Mbaye Ndiaye's transition from ASVEL to Olympiacos the most misguided assessment it had made. According to the writer, Ndiaye had adapted to Olympiacos's needs and improved his shooting, evolving into a key player for the team. He described it as a great success in scouting, as he believed he was ready to play a leading role in the EuroLeague champions and act as a steady closer. The Shot Clock also highlighted Carr, who, as he wrote, had been scoring consecutive 20-point games, Robinson Earl, whom he described as one of the best players in Europe and noted was playing in the Eurocup, and Lofton. He added that last season's Valencia players —Montero, Badio, De Larrea, and Pradilla— had scattered to different teams. According to him, the value of roster planning was that it increased the chances of identifying players who could elevate a team without guaranteeing infallible selections. Finally, he announced an upcoming detailed article on the subject. #basketball #scouting #αθλητισμός (translated)

The Shot Clock described the match as a high-paced game with constant changes, noting that at halftime it seemed to be developing into a heavy defeat for Olympiacos. During the posting, Zan Monteiro provided solutions for the team, while Papnikolaou made crucial plays. The Shot Clock placed particular importance on Evan Fournier's decision, whom it described as the leader of the French National Team and one of the top European players, to return to Europe a few years ago to play for Olympiacos. It added that his performance was one of those that, in its opinion, was not reflected in the PIR. #Μπάσκετ #ΟΣΦΠ #Αθλητισμός (translated)

The Shot Clock reported that Panathinaikos continued its very good performances, limited Partizan early on, and secured yet another victory in the Euroleague, taking advantage of its intensity and size. It added that Zeljko Obradovic received contributions from several players and gave significant playing time to players like Fall, whom he will need later on. #Πανιώνιος #Ευρωλίγκα #Μπάσκετ (translated)

The Shot Clock stated that Olympiakos, although not playing at their level, scored a lot again and easily defeated Efes, finding solutions thanks to the toughness that, in its view, had been missing. It added that the team showed it had a very high ceiling. Regarding Giorgos Bartzokas, it wrote that he was searching for solutions by changing lineups and that some of them paid off. According to Shot Clock, Olympiakos' quality was enough to easily prevail against teams like Efes. In closing, it noted that the Greek teams had achieved a 10/10 that week. #Ολυμπιακός #Basketball #EuroLeague (translated)

The Shot Clock wrote that, in its opinion, Rogka Vopoulos' performance the previous day showed the ideal version of the role needed at PAO. It suggested he should play for 8-14 minutes, with selected attempts — even more than he had the previous day, among other things after screens — as a catch-and-shoot threat. It added that specific lineups could cover his defensive weaknesses and asked readers if they see him in PAO's rotation when everyone returns healthy. #ΠΑΟ #Ρογκαβοπουλος #Καλαθοσφαίριση (translated)

The Shot Clock wrote that PAO's first games were easy, but the team made them look even simpler. It mentioned that the victory over Fener was the first major test against a team with similar goals and ambitions. According to it, PAO prevailed thanks to its very strong defense and an offense with a clear plan, while several of its players performed at a very high level. #ΠΑΟ #ποδόσφαιρο #Φενέρ (translated)

📌 Personal Update: Return to the EuroLeague Academy - This time as an instructor📌 A few years ago, I timidly made the decision to leave behind my job as a researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence in Health, as well as my academic path as a PhD candidate, to try my luck in a new and very difficult world: combining my love for basketball, its analysis, and scouting with the use of analytics in it. My first stop when I made this decision was the EuroLeague Coaching Academy. Today, a few years later, I am really happy to announce that I am returning to the Academy, this time from a completely different role, as an instructor in the Advanced Analytics Module. More details about the courses I will be teaching will be announced soon. Despite the many hours I have spent so far in academic classrooms, this is certainly the most beautiful and significant teaching challenge I have taken on. It is truly a great honor to receive this offer, and to be honest, I needed about zero seconds to say “yes.” 😅 What makes this moment even more special for me is seeing the cutting-edge work we build every day at Shot Clock on Advanced Basketball Analytics & Scouting starting to find its place at the highest level with the teams we collaborate with and of course now at one of the most important levels of European basketball and the largest coaching academy in the world. From a student of the Academy, back to the same Academy as an instructor. A circle that a few years ago I certainly could not have imagined. 🙏🏀 More coming soon. 👀 #BasketballAnalytics #EuroLeague #Basketball #AdvancedAnalytics #SportsAnalytics #BasketballScouting #Coaching #ShotClock #BasketballAnalytics #EuroLeague #Basketball #AdvancedAnalytics #SportsAnalytics #BasketballScouting #Coaching #ShotClock #EuroLeague #Basketball #AdvancedAnalytics (translated)

Whether Lefteris Mantzoukas will continue at this level of performance will be seen later - it is something that will be judged in the coming months. Despite the confidence and the nice things in his offense, it is his defense that has (personally) left me speechless at this moment. The guy "works" hard on defense, doing details that players often "bore" or consider unnecessary. An early tag before he goes to his man and leaves Yabusele on the weak side, and a textbook contest on Patty Mills are just two of the over 10 such highlights from his first two games in the EuroLeague. These are not samples of talent; these are samples of "I'm determined to do whatever it takes to play," and it’s rare to see. I really want to see him continue like this because it’s an example for every player. #Μπάσκετ #Ευρωλίγκα #Ταλέντο (translated)

Zalgiris, in the absence of its main creator and best perimeter player Nigel Goss, would rely heavily on Jonas Valanciunas from the start. Coach Bartzokas (in something he has done many times in the past) went for multiple help defenses in post-up situations when the Lithuanian superstar received the ball, setting the tone that he didn’t want any shots taken from there. Valanciunas' quality, in the absence of a creator, was enough to keep Zalgiris in the game: in a match decided by a single point, Valanciunas dominated, finishing with +13 (something we leverage, as the difference with him on the court was glaring), creating 7 assists, 5 potential assists, and 4 passes to assists (!). This is one of those times when the public discussion is not exactly right: yes, you don't play drop against Fournier. But for Zalgiris, to be within a point against elite teams, Valanciunas' presence on the court is a necessary and sufficient condition - because his quality and impact cannot be matched. So we have two situations: A correct tactical choice on one side (not executing Valanciunas in the post, shifting Zalgiris’ offense to long-range shots or close-outs). And on the other hand, the opponent's quality to find a solution to this correct tactical choice and be well within the game. Great things again this year in the Euroleague! Tomorrow our analysis, along with today’s matches and of course the game of PAO! #Ζάλγκιρις #Valanciunas #Ευρωλίγκα (translated)

Ο ΟΣΦΠ όπως είχαμε πει στο preview, με καλή πίεση στη μπάλα & στην πρώτη πάσα και παγίδα στον Valanciunas όταν χρειάστηκε, είχε clutch ξανά τον Evan Fournier στο τέλος και φεύγει με το διπλό από το Κάουνας μετά από ένα πολύ δύσκολο παιχνίδι. #euroleague #olympiacosbc #olympiacos #euroleague #olympiacos #basketball

Σε ενα συγκλονιστικό παιχνίδι, ο ΠΑΟΚ κερδίζει τον Παναθηναϊκό με buzzer beater του Cedi Osman και στέλνει μήνυμα οτι είναι πίσω για τα καλά! Φίλοι και φίλες, επιτέλους έχουμε πρωτάθλημα και θα είναι ένα πολύ καλό! #paok #paokbc #paobc #paobcaktor #supercup https://t.co/kAmGhVdx4S #paok #paobc #basketball

Το κλειδί για να νικήσεις την Παρί (είτε εύκολα, είτε δύσκολα) ήταν και παραμένει το να την κερδίσεις στην ένταση, το μέγεθος και το ρυθμό. Ο ΠΑΟ χθες το έκανε αυτό από το πρώτο λεπτό. Ο ΠΚ πάνω στον Hifi, 3 ακόμη ικανοί αμυντικοί στο παρκέ και μια παρότρυνση στον Μήτογλου να θυμηθεί ότι το rebounding είναι βασικό προσόν του. Πρώτο δείγμα εύκολο, αλλά η Ευρωλίγκα ξεκίνησε και η προσοχή στη λεπτομέρεια κάνει τη διαφορά. Περισσότερα σε λίγο στο πρώτο πέντε πράγματα που μας άρεσαν για τη φετινή σεζόν! #paobc #ΠαΟΚ #Eυρωλίγκα #μπάσκετ

Για ακόμη ένα παιχνίδι, όπως και στα φιλικά του, ο ΟΣΦΠ παρήγαγε υψηλού επιπέδου εκτελέσεις, έχοντας 67% στα δίποντα, με μόλις 8 από τις 42 προσπάθειές του να είναι εκτός του ζωγραφιστού. Ωστόσο, αυτό που μπορεί να είναι ένας X Factor της σεζόν είναι η ικανότητα του Montero να δημιουργήσει στο transition για παίκτες όπως ο Dorsey, o Fournier και ο Vezenkov. Καθαρές εκτελέσεις με σαφή ικανότητα να παίξει σε υψηλό ποσοστό σε αυτές. Περισσότερα σήμερα στο 5 πράγματα που μας άρεσαν! #OlympiacosBC #Basketball #ΟΣΦΠ #Αθλητισμός

Είναι σίγουρα νωρίς. Δε μπορούμε να ξέρουμε ούτε να εγγυηθούμε ότι θα είναι έτσι η συνέχεια. Όμως δύο στοιχεία είναι δεδομένα: 1. Ο Λευτέρης Μαντζουκας πιάνει την ευκαιρία από τα μαλλιά. 2. Ο Χάρης Γιαννόπουλος μου είχε πει: ο καλύτερος catch and shoot Έλληνας είναι ο Μαντζουκας, πρέπει να τον δεις στην προπόνηση για να το καταλάβεις. Υπάρχει ΠΟΛΥΣ δρόμος, αλλά ρισπεκτ στον Μαντζουκα για το πώς αντιμετωπίζει αυτή την ευκαιρία. #Μπάσκετ #Ελλάδα #Αθλητισμός
