Olimpia Milano - Fenerbahce

Paris comes to the French Open on a serious wave and I am hoping for a good performance. Feneris won both matches against Paris this season in terms of points, but Paris also wasted Peru. Feneris looks good, but it's hard to bet against Paris' form.

It has to be acknowledged that the regular season is over and the teams will no longer play the offense-based basketball. Teams that know how to attack, but it has to be recognized that in the playoffs, defense wins and Fenerbache knows how to defend. Even Paris team lacks stability in their game, and in our game against Real, we won thanks to our defensive play. I think there will be a lot of enthusiasm, but at the same time, a lot of nerves, which will result in missed shots and lower scoring than usual on offense.

The first series of matches, Fenerbahce will start at home, Peru will be very important. I have no doubt that Sarunas will have prepared and motivated the team well, as the opponent who is worthy of great respect is coming. The arena will be full, the atmosphere will be hot, and Paris will definitely not have an easy time here.

No matter what teams there may be, in Euroleague and especially in playoffs, there is a very high total and if Paris tries to play their fast-paced basketball, I believe Saras will try to remind them of his game and slow it down. The total is such that even with a very high score in playoffs, the bet would still win.

The first competition and the choice is Feneris. Šaras will have prepared and motivated the team well. Šaras and the team had more time to recover than Paris. They also played local competitions a few days ago, where they had a hard time defeating the Šalonas club, plus dealing with travel to Turkey. Today, Fener's team should be fresher. Plus, they have players with experience in such high-level matches. Good luck.

I really want to meet only because of Sario's tactics and basketball understanding. The baggage of experience is much greater with both the coach and the players, the home games, the atmosphere will be fantastic, I have no doubt. It's Paris' first playoffs and it's also an away game. I have no doubt that there may be a clash at the beginning and Fene should take advantage of that.

I want to meet with Sarunas solely because of his tactics and understanding of basketball. The baggage of experience is much greater both for the coach and the players, the home games, the atmosphere will be fantastic, I have no doubt about it. The first playoff game for Paris and in such an away match. I have no doubt that there may be some friction at the beginning and Fenerbahce should take advantage of it.

In elimination rounds, X factors often emerge, and coaches are not afraid to bench players from Peru just to benefit the team. Colson is a very experienced and aggressive player, and even though his role has changed recently, he still likes to stand on his homeland ground and wait for opportunities to throw 3-pointers. In the last 15 games, he has made at least 9 3-pointers. In their previous meetings, he also made a few 3-pointers.
