"I think we're one of the best teams in the world. After the NBA, it's us. So, we should be doing this," Olympiacos forward Shaquielle McKissic talked after the game about blowing out weaker teams in the local league.
Kostas Sloukas was registered for the match but was ultimately rested due to muscle discomfort.
