THE TAKE

Gasterra Flames and Panellinios BC face each other in Week 6 of the Eurocup with the hosts already eliminated from Last 16 contention, but Panellinios hoping to land a berth with a win. Panellinios enters the regular season finale with a 3-2 record and will seal second place in the group with a victory or a defeat for Bennet Cantu at Galatasaray Café Crown. However a Panellinios loss combined with a Cantu victory would drop it to third place and send Cantu into the Last 16 instead. Panellinios already beat Gasterra last moth 68-51. Maurice Bailey stood out with 15 points, while Matt Haryasz scored 12 and grabbed 9 rebounds in defeat. Panellinios has been on a roll of late, netting back-to-back wins. The Flames have dropped their last two and hope to end their Eurocup season with a win in front of their home fans. Bailey remains the visitor’s best scorer, but other guards Joseph Krabbenhoft and Manolis Papamakarios and center Djuro Ostovic have provided their share of points, with Samo Udrih also proving himself reliable in the backcourt. Gasterra is strong at guard with Matt Bauscher and Bobby Bostain in the mix, while Jason Dourrisseau and Jason Ellis are solid at the forward spots and John Turek provides depth and length in the middle, as the visitors have been stout in the paint, where they rank fourth in the Eurocup in total rebounding.

Quotes Head Coaches

VAN DEN BERG, MARCO
GasTerra Flames
"Even though we cannot qualify anymore, there is still a lot at stake with this game. We always want to win, so this game we will put our best foot forward and try to make it a great game for the fans against our friends from Greece. We are a little bit hobbled by injuries, but we need to play tough defense, rebound well and move the ball effectively to have a chance."
SKOURTOPOULOS, ATHANASIOS
Panellinios BC
"We must not be carried away by the fact that GasTerra Flames cannot qualify anymore. The game is very dangerous. We want to win to get the qualification to the next round of the Eurocup. I believe that if we are serious throughout the match, we will succeed."

Players

BAUSCHER, MATT
GasTerra Flames
"We haven't gotten the results we wanted in Eurocup. We've played a lot better at home then we have on the road so far. We really want to finish strong with a win on Tuesday at home."
XANTHOPOULOS, VASILIS
Panellinios BC
"Qualification to the next round of the Eurocup is entirely in our hands. We want to win against GasTerra Flames in the Netherlands to qualify and I think that if we are 100 percent focused, we will succeed. GasTerra Flames can be out of the Last 16 race, but will not sit and wait to lose. We improve by playing a game and I think we deserve to qualify for the next round."
Panellinios BC punched its ticket to the Last 16 by holding off GasTerra Flames for a 57-63 victory on Tuesday in the Netherlands. Panellinios improved to 4-2 in Group E, clinching second place and moving into Last 16 Group L alongside Benetton Treviso, Alba Berlin and Cajasol. The game was close with the hosts cutting the difference to 2 twice in the fourth quarter, but Djuro Ostojic scored 5 points in a row and Maurice Bailey added 4 free throws as Panellinios iced the game with a late 2-10 charge. Bailey and Samo Udrih paced the winners with 14 points each. Evangelos Sklavos and Joseph Krabbenhoft added 11 apiece, with the latter grabbing 14 rebounds. Matt Bauscher finished with 18 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists and Jason Dourisseau netted 15 for the Dutch champs, who bow out of the competition with a 1-5 record

Bauscher carried GasTerra early with 6 points in the first few minutes as the teams stayed close. Udrih and Krabbenhoft kept Panellinios neck-and-neck with the hosts until Dourisseau drilled a pair of threes in a 9-0 run that gave the hosts a 16-10 lead. Soon Robby Bostain added a three in helping the lead grow to 7. Sklavos got to the line and tallied 3 points on two possessions before Matthew Otten made it 21-15 after 10 minutes. Otten pushed GasTerra to 8 ahead early in the second quarter. However the hosts seemed to tire then and Panellinios took advantage. Sklavos led the charge with a basket inside and a triple in a 0-9 run to give his team the lead. Henry Bekkering countered with a basket-plus-foul and the lead changed hands a few more time as the teams traded baskets. Dourisseau lifted the hosts to 31-27, but Krabbenhoft tied it, Udrih added a three and Vassilis Xanthopoulos’s basket beat the buzzer to cap a 0-9 run and give Panellinios a 31-36 halftime edge.

A Krabbenhoft steal set up Bailey for a layup as Panellinios threatened to take over. But Bauscher and Bostain took charge with three quick baskets to bring GasTerra right back. Krabbenhoft and Bailey pushed Panellinios to 39-44 only to see Jason Ellis bring his team within 42-44 at the end of a low-scoring third quarter. Ostojic scored his first points of the night from the line before Udrih and Dourisseau traded shots from downtown. John Turek got involved and twice brought the home side within 2 points. However he could not stop Ostojic at the other end and he score 5 straight points as Panellinios rose to 49-57. A basket by Bauscher was not enough as the hosts tried to claw their way back, but Bailey was perfect 4 times from the line, raising the lead to double figures and effectively sending Panellinios through to the next round.

"It was a great victory. We had many problems, but these did not affect us. We played amazingly for a European road game. We were excellent on defense, guarded well and got the rebounds. The atmosphere in the arena was excellent, and no matter how surprising, helped us to achieve the victory."
OSTOJIC, DJURO
Panellinios BC
"It was a very important game for us and we wanted to win. We played very well. In Greece, we are not doing well, but we will try to cover the lost ground. European games will help us psychologically in Greece. I want to congratulate everyone."
