As a PAO fan I think people are overoptimistic about this series. It's definitely very close.
I also think is very close and we need to be extra careful about this series. Im optimistic but we need to show up and play like we played all season to be able to go to F4
It will be an easy 3-0, but PAO will get eliminated in the semis.
You guys gonna go to Berlin. 3-0 or 3-1, there won't be no Game 5.
i agree lol. people are super overoptimistic about my club too (Olympiakos), while Barcelona is matching us greatly, regarding the rosters, the only advantage we do have is in the head of the bench (Bartzokas) and some experience, almost every other advantage belongs to Barcelona
@@thanasisemmanouilidis1230 I would feel better with Monaco as our opponent, but I also think that this season we just had a bad timing against most of the Spanish clubs. Now we have the best record of the last 12 games (11-1 I think), so it should be possible.
I'm an Olympiacos fan and even i'm not that optimistic.
They're a bunch of clowns lol
Oly/Barca series will end in 5 games, they made it sound like a very easy win for Oly! lol
I go with my predictions:
PAO Maccabi 3-1
Real Baskonia 3-1
Barça Oly 3-2
Monaco Fener 1-3
Good playoffs to everyone from Bologna🇮🇹🇮🇹❤❤
From Sloukas = Nappier we went to Nunn and Sloukas = Lorenzo and Baldwin. At least we had some progress Rytis. What do you think?
Just adding some information about the second game of maccabi vs pao .Not only Sloukas was out ,Vildoza was also out ,Kendrick Nunn left the game in the second half with an injury in his hand and Grant had 4 fouls.
Kalaitzakis saved PAO from his largest defeat in Euroleague history and then he was benched for the rest of the season by coach Ataman.
Now I am definitely convinced that Rytis is either biased against Pana or the perfect troll in order to make Pana fans to comment and augment channels' recognition and commerciality.Well done Rytis 👏
I mean.., decide for yourself but I can tell you that we in northern Europe are naturally not that emotional to everything like you in deep south and after reading this comment section I even started wondering if some people who commented here have at least a little bit of understanding what objectivity means at all & how it works with predictions, etc.
@@atsarginiskiemosnaiperisalthough they deleted my comment already once, without being offensive I"ll write it one more time, no prob👌
First of all you meant to write "subjectivity", not "objectivity", otherwise your argument makes no sense at all.I've been watching Rytis for a long time and he has stated clearly in the past that he doesn't like Pana, not as a team but as an organisation 😱
By saying something like this you understand that his opinion is untrustworthy in advance.
Moreover the statement that there aren't clear mismatches between Macabbi and Pana and taking into consideration that Pana has got the homecourt advantage, he decides to give 3-1 for Macabbi, not even 3-2 😂 🤷♂️
Totally contradictive logic..And one friendly advice.One life, leave it with passion.
As a Virtus fan, I thought it was a good season overall. From Eurocup, to Eurocup winners, to Euroleague, to Euroleague play-in win, that's steady progression within decent financial parameters. Hopefully can make it to the playoffs next season.
"Maccabi dont have any serious missmatches against PAO, they have same quality players as PAO, so Maccabi will win 3-1" (with PAO having court advantage). Logic left the room xD
it was expected. basketnews are big ataman haters. and urbonas is racist against turks and turkey.
It's because PAO doesn't use more than 7 players while Maccabi has a large bench.
@@frapes614 I guess you only watched 1 game of PAO this season, and I have a feeling that's PAO-Barca
He literaly said "Maccabi has no mismatches... the biggest advantage for PAO is OAKA." Your logic has left the room clearly because he didn't say anything irrational. Stop being so sensitive to other people talking about your team.
Of course they do not have any missmatch. We have one clear missmatch at small forward. It is very fortunate that Ioannis is back and can remedy this.
@@NK-dj7no Tf my friend, are u ok? xD The problem isnt on the "missmatches" opinion. I was talking about "no missmatches, same quality team, PAO has court advantage, so Maccabi will win 1-3 ". How this makes sense? Teams are equal in all terms as he said, PAO has court advantage (which is quite advantage). Logic says PAO will win 3-2. How losing 1-3 is possible with these advantages/disadvantages analysed before? xD
Cool it up guys it’s better to be considered us an underdog☘️☘️
Huge fan of your podcast, even tho i am a panathinaikos fan,i love that we have that kind of podcasts in Europe,the takes on panathinaikos are d*gdshit but acceptable,its your opinion afterall
Pao has created physiological problems to Rytis. It’s okay tho, he hasn’t been correct in any previous prediction
The only ''physiological'' problem is your insecurity. They are not Greek journalists, sponsored by the president to only say good things about your team.

And in greek league you are clapped three (3) times from Pao. So?
It doesnt mean anything if you dont repeat it in play offs
As a Pana fan, Mabi is not a good opponent, but losing twice to Maccabi this season benefits us. We now know how to be more cautious. Find it hard to lose 3 times at these series.
As a Pao fan I would be worried if Rytis predicted us to advance against Maccabi. But now after watching his analysis based on basketball logic and not any hint of hate, I am sure we will be in the final 4.
Thank you guys, your hate is fueling us this year.
Rytis maybe lost a gf by panathinaikos fan
No, he lost his gf to a guy who talks like Ergin Ataman
Rytis dont try to play it objective either embrace it and become the heel or stop disrespecting PAO like that
Congratz with the first game 🎉
Lets predict if Rytis will predict correct, finally 🤣🤣🤣
Good analysis guys, I agree with most things!
And although as a Panathinaikos supporter I hope some of Rytis' predictions are wrong, I love how he embraces the villain role that was assigned to him and I hope he keeps it up!
I find this whole story hilarious 😂
Rytis obviously has cried many nights cause of panathinaikos in the past…BIGGEST CLUB IN EUROPE☘️☘️…I hope that you turn up after the 3-0 🧹🧹
He failed in ALL his predictions so far, I think we will be ok comrade ☘️☘️☘️

These guys said that olympiacos will defeat Barca easier with a home court disadvantage than Pana will do against Maccabi with an advantage. I respect your opinions but come on don't disrespect my team like that, we are unbeaten this year in Oaka give us some respect we finished 2nd too and we are ahead of Olympiacos in the Greek League come on
Guys...First of all I have to say that I love your podcast...I've been seeing you from the start..And I enjoy your sense of humor,honesty,and of course love of basketball and content that you present to us...Secondly...I have to say sorry,about all this "greek" toxicity that you have to fight...And I say that,as a Greek myself...Keep on,the good work!!
He won't be able to handle it very well, but it's alright. He'll get over it.
Pao hate incoming
Ok Rytis, just admit that you’re a PAO hater at this point. It’s getting ridiculous
Fener fan here. Its true that we have way too many issues and uncertainties. Also fener was really unstoppable with Saras in some games. I think we will get these series one way or another cuz its 5 games series and team will find its rhythm eventually during series. Maybe it’s only my wishful thinking..
Everyone hating on Rytis, just because he explained why he made his prediction. This ain't Greek journalism, let the guys do their show and learn to accept other people's opinions. 😂 Great and interesting talk, as always, guys. Keep going! 💪💯
We're just cocky as a nation, as we should be we re Balkans after all😎💪
@@youreacasual6305 Most stupid argument. As a citizen of the Balcans, I agree 120%! 😂❤️👍💯

@@giorgiosmy4080 It's his opinion. HIS OPPOSITION!!! They also can all say that Olympiacos gonna loose 3-2 against Barcelona, so what??? 🤦 If you don't like the work the guys are doing, just avoid them.
And stop hating on anyone who's not with your team, you only can control and threat the media in Greece. 😂😂😂
@@theotellios3274 LOL again.Keep repeating this, there is a chance for yourself to believe your own propaganda.You may fool foreigners outside Greece but not the rest of us.
All this guys in the end of the season they will be so upset because panathinaikos their father will have the 7 star
It concerns me you all three put Olympiakos as winner of the series. I feel like there is an extra pressure now😂.. Gytus never dissapoints me 🫶 ❤️🇬🇷🇱🇹
Rytis cannot have an objective opinion when it comes to Pao. He may have his own personal reasons but he should bring objectivity in the podcast and I don't speak about today only. Now, if he is a genuine 🤡 or he does it for taunting purposes then I rest my case 😂
Your taste is like your moustache
Maybe the intrigue provides popularity, but it's not a good thing being the stupid guy of the company. Rytis, just don't search for any reason to speak againist Pao. Maccabi may try some stuff, but if Pao is a little bit serious, it will dominate the games
I dont really understand how the main focus is markus howard when your own native player is the match mvp and is probably the reason why baskonia won
36:52 Donatas 🙌💛💙😊
pan in 5,fener in 4,barca in 5,real in 4
Again and again, zero respect for Baskonia.
Disrespect to PAO and Ataman is disgusting in last videos.
Rytis stop needing that attention. Also your predictions are always bad so thank you ☘️. It’s normal to have some big haters like you when you own 6 EuroLeague titles 😇
Sorry to tell you, but Maccabi has a much deeper history than Pao in basketball. It's a consistent competitor for over 50 years, it has the same amount of Euroleagues as Pao, but with many more final 4 and finals appearances.
@@vasilisbardakos4540 I assume that you are an olympiacos fan beacause of counting f4 and finals instead of titles. I know 6 ( or maybe 7) is a big number and it hurts 😭😭
Colson , Blat , Rivero are guys to watch , on other side Grigonis, Sloukas and Mitoglu..
Less focus on them so ...
Rytis gonna have to bury his prediction somewhere really deep...
In your 'a' h©le man, you're right
@@saturnskull1242 Ξέρεις εσύ από αυτά γαυράκο, 25 χρόνια σουρωτηρι έχει γίνει ο πάτος σου 😘
Lol, nope, u will
@@YoniTeitelbaum enjoy lil niqqa 😘
Real Madrid 3-1 Baskonia
PAO 3-1 Maccabi
Monaco 1-3 Fener
Barça 3-2 Oly
li'm gonna check my guesses after the series :)
You are right that PAO played the one game without Nunn, the other without Sloukas, but at the same time, Maccabi was playing really bad during the period of the first game, traveling, not living stable somewhere, the team was exhausted and losing against many, Baldwin wasn't there, having high insecurity as the war-issues were fresh between Palestine and Israel.
I would say that one player to watch in the Barca -Oly series would be Moses Wright....his athleticism and speed could be a key factor especially since we are talking about a team that has an amazing frontline..he kinda makes the difference.... I think ill go for Oly in 3-2 ....
I agree about Pao -Macabi , i think Fener will make it and i think Basconia could be a bit more competitive than you guys said .....
rytis om very sorry about the beard situation man,hope you work it out
We didn't expect nothing else from you guys. The disrespect is unbelievable every year from you ☘️
I'm waiting to see Rytis reaction at the end of playoffs after he is gonna see the results from Pao destroying macabi .
Pao-maccabi 3-1, not easily will be close games. Barca-olympiakos 3-1 olympiakos isnt peaking as you said, he picked at Feb-march. Also peters is at hiw usual form, 3-4 ppg, not the god form at the start of the season. As usual the key is walkup if he shoots well they have a chance, but he is a bad shooter and so he cant be 4 5 games all good, at he 1 might, so my prediction 3-1 barca
Monaco-Fener 1-3 fener is peaking and they have a maestro in the bench, real-baskonia 3-0
First time in a long time when the match mvp is not mentioned almost like he hadnt even played
Let me guess before i watch the video : all 3 will agree that Panathinaikos will be eliminated with 3 defeats against macabi
edit: close enough
Deep down, they all want that but only the 14 year old on the left voices it openly
Why you act such a victim?😅😅 2/3 chose PAO
@@ola4339 beta male syndrome
Close enough with 2 out of 3 picking PAO to win. Yall must have a different dictionary lol
@@AugustasSuliauskaswhats wrong buddy? I just made a prediction. Like your friend on the left side of the table..
Bro this guy is like if maccabi players play their best performance they will win. But if pao plays their best they will play like prime Bulls
I believe that Maccabi can upset Pana's fans, they have more playoff experience
10 f4 from sloukas wtf are you talking about
@@Panathinaikos2009 they have more experience playing together, 2nd season with almost the same punching roster, while Pana with all respect is playing their first playoff series with that roster, almost new team, and I just think it might play a huge role
With all due respect sloukas has more playoffs experience than the whole Maccabi team combined
@@Pao13732 Agree with you, but my point is more about team chemistry, anyway wish both teams luck and have a great series. Respect for Pana, amazing comeback season, nice to see OAKA at fire again 💚☘🔥
@@arturblaskevic9097 Thanks for the respect to PAO and I see your point but I have to disagree. Panathinaikos with a basically new roster and new coach went from 2nd to last to 2nd in a single season. Even with experience on the Makabi side there are way to many factors for PAO to win. My prediction is PAO 3-0 but 3-1 is more probable
It's a bit unfair talking about Baskonia win and not to mention Sedekerskis - the guy who was MVP. Where is his credit? Markus „possesion ends here“ Howard sometimes tries too much
Panathinaikos probably will crash Maccaby in 4 matches.

@@YoniTeitelbaum yeah 3-1
Prediction before i watch the video: Pana is bad team without rotation and maccabi will eliminate pana 3-0 max 3-1 and ataman is a good coach only with high badget and oaka is dead stadium like church and lountzis>nunn Lorenzo brown>diamantidis rivero>dominique wilkins webb>batiste
🤡
Rytis Viniauskas really needs to stop talking.
I can’t stand these panathinaikos fans. They are all stack in the past because they have 6 trophies and they still think they are the biggest club in Europe. They are a historic club no argue about that but they are going mental because they have not done anything in 12 years. If they didn’t have Nunn they would probably be trying their luck in the play in tournament. As a Greek I would love to have both Oly and Pao in the final four but I wouldn’t mind if Pao got swept by Maccabi just to see these fans and their idiot president Giannakopoulos cry.
"If they didn’t have Nunn they would probably be trying their luck in the play-in tournament" I GUESS THATS WHY WE HAVE HIM.???
PAO Maccabi 2-3
Real Baskonia 3-0
Barça Oly 3-2
Monaco Fener 2-3
Rytis get a life for real.Pao fans bullied you last year,get over it
10:35 finally some love for Spanish basketball, not usual in this channel
Pao is gonna overpass macabi with 3-1 at least (1 lose) and whoever thinks that's its gonna be a good matchup it's a fool. Pao quality it's way better than macabis. If they manage to take the 2-0 in oaka then its gonna be 3-0 in macabi arena.
Iam pao fan it’s very hard matchup harder than fener
PAO-Maccabi 3-2 Barca-Osfp 3-0 Monaco- Fener 3-2 Real-Basconia 3-2
As a pao fan, I love the joke with the anti-pao Rytis... congrats for your podcast guys!!!
It’s going to be a fine 3-0 walk for pao☘️
Αντικειμενικοτατο σε βρίσκω 😂😂
Lolllll how's that walk?
Thank you for mentioning me Urbonas!!! Rytis has a strong fanbase here is Piraeus and Zalgiris Piraeus has a special piece in his heart!!! I will not change my predictions. Real 3-0 or 3-1, PAO 3-0, fener 55%, and or us can’t predict and I still believe that we are the underdogs. Baskonia and Maccabi in my eyes are naive teams let’s say that they can win the first 2 games and easily loose the other 3. Fener has a variety of options but it will be a very tough matchup. We on the other hand we have the ability to win 3-1 or we can easily loose 3-0. Let the fun begin!!!
PS. Rytis you are a basketball icon don’t listen the Green Athenian rabbits.

Can we somehow block Pana fans from the comment section? This is getting ridiculous and they kinda give the same vibe as ultranationalist Indian keyboard warriors. It's like you are not allowed to voice your opinion if it goes against their team.
LOL
Hello, its not that he is not allowed to express his opinion that's the reason they do the podcast but that's one thing.The other thing is that from the start of the season he keeps hating for no reason without even explaining his opinion most of the times (you can go and watch the podcast with the power rankings) . Also when you publicly express your opinion (which he has every right to do so) anyone can express their disagreement when they feel you are wrong.
and who tf are you? youtube police?
we can express our opinion like u do
our problem is not that he dont like pana our problem is that he is not man enough to admit it.
get over with it
you and the guys can say whatever you want and panathinaikos fan no ? great logic.
@@user-gy8qj3nr6k You can respectfully voice your opinion without trashing someone else's or think that they have some hidden agenda for having it. Dude literally said by himself that he is biased because he likes Maccabi. An opinion would be " No I disagree with you. Pana will qualify instead for XYZ. Instead we are seeing ridiculous stuff such as "You are not man enough to admit you hate us", "You are ladies and you hate us", "Pao number 1 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🔥🔥🔥" "Wipe your tears we conquer Berlijn" etc. There's a difference here and it downgrades the entire discourse. Peace out ✌🏼
PAO fans you are so obnoxious we maccabi fans actually had huge respect for you and your club. But your toxic comments and your crying over the referees calls took this respect away. Just because you threw lots of money and have confidence does not automatically gives you a pass to the final four
Toxic fan base of Pao fans is back. They won't even let you to have an opinion. You will be bullied for that. Dpg effect on them is real
