Nikola Milutinov: 'We showed what we can do'
Donta Hall and Peters traded inside scores to start the game before Howard knocked down a long two-pointer for an early 2-4 lead. Yet, Fournier took over by scoring the next 8 points for Olympiacos to make it 10-4. Howard responded with 6 free throws and another jumper to put Baskonia ahead, 11-12. Hall and Williams-Goss exchanged buckets, then Forrest completed a three-point play to maintain a 13-17 lead. But Olympiacos responded with a 9-0 run, including a Milutinov hook basket off the bench. McKissic nailed a basket before slamming home a dunk in transition, and Fournier netted a layup to beat the first-quarter buzzer to take his tally to 12 points and give Olympiacos a 30-24 cushion after 10 minutes.
A three-point play from Williams-Goss was followed by a triple from Kostas Papanikolaou to extend the lead to double digits. Chima Moneke then went on to nail a buzzer-beating bucket that cut the difference to 36-27, but a basket from Peters and 5 points from Papanikolaou gave Olympiacos a 43-27 lead. Milutinov responded to back-to-back buckets from Ousmane Ndiaye with one of his own and 2 made free throws to restore a 47-31 margin. A three-point play from Forrest was followed by triples from Fournier, Luca Vildoza and Giannoulis Larentzakis for a 56-38 lead at halftime.
Forrest opened the second half with a bucket from inside before a triple from Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot trimmed the deficit to 58-43. Williams-Goss and Forrest traded baskets, then Peters and Nikolaos Rogkavopoulos exchanged inside scores, 62-49. Vildoza drilled a triple, and Milutinov responded to a put-back basket from Moneke with a slam to make it 69-51. Peters took his tally to 12 points with back-to-back baskets and extended Olympiacos’s lead to 73-53 heading into the closing quarter.
Tadas Sedekerskis and Williams-Goss scored a three-point play apiece, with Rogkavopoulos nailing a triple to cut the difference to 76-59. Milutinov and Moneke traded baskets from inside before Moustapha Fall and Williams-Goss scored two straight layups for an 82-63 cushion midway through the last quarter. Then, Baskonia fought back in its bid to trim the deficit, but another basket from Fall was followed by a corner three from Walkup and another triple from McKissic to make it 90-66, which practically put the game to bed.
