- Olympiacos Piraeus is a very unique EuroLeague team - they value passing way more than dribbling. In this video, BasketNews' Augustas Suliauskas analyzes how the Greek team stays successful relying on passing and cutting, while modern basketball is leaning towards dribbling more and more each day.

Can u make a video that panathinailos won real madrid?
Yes, it's the most unique team in the last 3 years because it is relying to fundamentals for its offence.

Basketball is all about teamwork. Olympiacos teach the basics to all these teams that rely on hero ball etc. Creating multiple threats make everybody vital for the team.
That's the basis of our success and guarantees our continued success. Pes ta!

@@TesseracTesseracT Nowherenaikos has double your Euroleagues.
Olympiakos is a unicorn and its a shame they lost the title last year on the last second of the final.Not just for the team but i feel for basketball in general.A title would solidify the fact that selfless team basketball is a valid way of playing even in this era where personal achievements are more important than winning both for players and fans(a thing that has made nba almost unwatchable even in the playoffs for me ). I think its the closest thing we have seen to the Pop's Spurs as an approach to the game.
So, long live The Beautiful Game....
That's exactly right , Olympiacos winning would and will be a reward for the excellent values they stand for..
Not a shame.I think pitty is the correct word.
@@torisfour1566 true pity is what I meant. No shame for this team
Hope we win it this year because right now i feel like there no other team that deserves it more than us as selfish as it may sound like
@@konstantinoschantzis4842 I dont know if you deserve it,but yes olympiakos is great team.Hope to be second so i can be first...
As an olympiacos fan I want this kind of basketball for the next 10 years with the same coach
I am Olympiakos fan too. Don't count on it. Augustas knows what he is talking about. This kind of play is fading away. Also this kind of play is not suitable for all players. Not everybody can adjust either due to lack of will or mentality or due to the special characteristics that some players have. Even coach B this year has transformed his playing style because the tools he has are different this year. He is using pick n roll more but as Augustas pointed it is a bit altered and still not so much used. Also I think that he realised his mistake to insist on playing flex all the the time and applied some modifications which have been delivering very well for Olympiakos. I think the way Coach B is preparing his teams is really very meaningful for coaches who are whitnessing a general trasformation of playing style towards iso. Coaches that take serious their jobs really dont like this because they will utterly become useless since the playing plan will be delivered to the players if we keep insisting on the iso play.
It’s crazy how so many plays I put in this video we saw yesterday vs Zalgiris. The last back screen from their motion play, slip screns, and etc
Great job, thanks for the video!
Thanks for the comment!@@Slimshady17191

Have you been around the past 3 years, also, that he has been demolishing your team in every way possible or are you just waiting for a point in the (un)foreseeable future when you at last manage to win a title against him? Such a stupid, ignorant (of the beauty of the game) comment...

@@DimShamrock yeah sure, as DPG said ,by January "24 Itoudis will have replaced coach B 😅😅😅

@@DimShamrock well i cant agree more.greeks tend to do things like that 🤣🤣
It's crazy, we've seen these play's countless times but every time the result is the same.
Great analysis video, coach b would be proud
Thanks a lot! That's the crazy part - every team knows the plays, yet they score on them in each game
@@AugustasSuliauskas i think that teams based on offensive talent, have a slight drawback in having 5 players completely focused during each and every second in defence.
Just a glimpse of an eye by just one defender, the chain breaks and Oly strikes like cobra 🐍That 's all, imho.
Very proud for my team ❤🎉❤🎉❤

The chess grand master of Basketball.
Thats why coach B is great. He can achueve great things without the huge budget of others
Coach B already lost two times in Basket League, home and away. Get ready for a sweep. Betting odds don't lie.

Coach B is one of the best coaches thats why olympiacos has started winning so much these 3 years. BTW nice video
A unique team with a unique coach and an average budget .Coach B is special at making most of the players to adjust in his playstyle . Especially last year Olympiakos played the best team basketball i have ever watched in Europe . Our superstar is coaching he is not scoring baskets
Congrats for pronouncing Olympiakos correctly ,even greek reporters when speaking english with foreing players pronounce it wrong.
thanks! i think i already made it a habit calling them this way since i did not know the right pronounciation just a year ago!
speaking about pronounciation.... it's ZAlgiris, ZalGIris, or ZalgiRIs?@@AugustasSuliauskas
Olympiakos has achieved things mostly over the last decade that no other team has.
The winner/refuse-to-lose mentality plus beating repeatedly teams that have 3x times budget more proves how unique this team is.
This team is still teaching basketball showing how simple the sport can be many times...
Olympiakos has always been driving us crazy, hitting the titles in ALL sports.
That's why its called the Legend.
Olympiacos and Bartzokas ll remember it for years, with small badget, plays so beautifull and effective basketball in defence and offense. A democraticall basketball who all players are equalls.
Communist basketball* 😅
Olympiacos hasn't a small budget. I would say an average one according to the Euroleague's data (9th or 10th if i mistaken). It's ridiculous that you always mention it.
Again the budget word... Its getting boring man. The same team in football has the biggest budget and noone speaks of it. In basketball is being kept mentioned as a miracle... Omg
again headless people comparing football teams with the babsketball department. Only Real and Barcelona are the same club in both departments which as a fact by itself is conflicting for all the other teams. Please wake up. And yes the budget of Olympiacos is in the middle, way far from many top notch teams with which he competes every year. It's true please digest it!Get on with it.
@kiros75 Digest what? Olympiacos fans should digest that Olympiacos is in the middle and don't act like it's at the bottom.
Olympiakos way of playing, is a way of life. Olympiacos, with the way it operates in general as an organization, gives life lessons, not just some lessons of good basketball.
Great life lessons. Like how to call Bissang a monkey.
@@DimShamrock Get a life man
@@DimShamrock you have confused the behavior of a single fan with the mentality of an entire association. this fan was punished by the club with a lifetime ban from SEF
You are 100% right , i was reading some interviews of players that played in Olympiacos and most of them said they wanted to play in the team because it was a team that makes you a better player and was important for their evolution/progress
Bartzokas is not a coach, he is an artist
Nice analysis broski. Probably it was a pleasure to analyse a coach like this
You already know. One of my favorite teams to watch & analyze
@@AugustasSuliauskasall these reflect Bartzokas the player. I just wrote a comment about it
The GOAT of off ball movement in Coach's B playstyle was Vezenkov. He was also a "sniper" on shooting the ball so opponent teams were extra focused on him.
Once left, we can see sometime it's difficult for Oly players to connect especially at the beginning of the season.
New signings and existing players that have bigger/different role this year needed time to figure every team mate out.
We can clearly see now Oly is more dominant in the latest games.
there is no Goat for plays like these. All have to move in time in specific positions and do specific acts .If that fails then u need a top playemaker to take the correct choice. Sloukas is really good in that role . Sasha was a great attacker but his big difference was that he was a great defender too. Tho his body wasnt helping to move fast , his space control and possitioning were in top level. Last year the team was blessed with no injuries , there wasnt any natoinal team games so they could practise all together . This kind of playing need hours of practise till u know each scenario and execute em asap. This year is not like that, many injuries many extra games for the players but team didnt chang more than 30% and thats a great benefit
@@ypsilonalpha You are wrong. Sasha was indeed the goat in off ball movement and he took the place of Papanikolaou who was the pioneer in Olympiakos before Sasha. Now Peters is starting to move like Sasha. I think Neo(Peters) is copying the MATRIX(Sasha)!!Sasha was never a top defender but he was very much improved in the last 2 years. Needs to improve more now in the NBA. Again you are wrong for the playmaker. Not only one playmaker is needed to play flex style. You need more playmakers and Olympiacos has many that play that role for sure even if they are not categorized as point guards. Remember Fal, Papanikolaou, Piters. All them are good in passing the ball. And yes Sloukas is an excellent playmaker but as you can see this year he was not the only guy to orchestrate Olympiakos. Sloukas prefered much more pick n roll and have the ball in hands much more time and that's why I believe he left the team or we let him go whatever you prefer. Sloukas also played a lot alongside with Bolomboy who in my opinion is a pick n roll monster but really weak for the flex system and they cooperated very succesfully using pick n rolls. Bolomboy really struggled in the role of Fal in the flex system. I believe the same thing applies to Miloutinov. He is not so efficient in the flex system, he can't replace Fal and coach B has to use him in different ways like he uses now Petrousev and Wright.
@@kiros75 Bro Shasha was on 4 and Pap on 3 what are u talking about? Pap had a great year last seasson and he was 90% in the first 5 starting along with Sasha. Pap shared the place with Shaq and Shasa with Piters(thats why he didnt play a lot last year) wake up
@@ypsilonalpha what are you talking about? you completely lost it. i am talking about the off ball movement. i did not refer to the players performance. read again please.
@@kiros75 there is not any off ball stat . So u cant take place of someone for something when that place does not exist. In systems like that how u can say someone the GOAT since is defenatelly team work . Only when the system fails u can see who can read the game and take the correct choice , even by making a cut , pass , drive into etc. When they execute the plan the moves are specific. This is what u need to have in defence tho. fast reading and moving preperly. and yes last year Sasha was great in this part thats why his off rebounds and turn overs raised and thats the big difference with Piters . In offense Piters numbers are not that far from Sasha , but in defence he cant follow. Tho this year we have better defenders in 1,2,5 without lacking in other spots. This year we miss only a player like Sloukas. Many time the ball movent didnt work , ofc that is cause they didnt practise all together and injuries took us further back and theres when u need a player who can read fast and act out of the box . Sloukas had that role coach B tried to get James for that but wasnt possible at this time.
you make me see basketball from different perspective 😍
Great analysis and it proves that on that level, all small details, synchronization and right timing makes the difference.
Thanks a lot. Their synchronization and timing are so amazing to watch. Few teams match this team work
Really good video brother! An honour for the club and for Coach B ♟️💪
thanks you!@@ALISTOSmc
Olympiacos number 1 team in Greece and Euroleague 💪💪🇬🇷🇬🇷
Coach B,a future G.O.A.T of basketball in the making
Movement and passing are what make basketball such a beautiful game. Thank you Olympiakos for respecting the game! ❤❤❤
In Europe team defense and tactics are much more complicated than in the NBA. Therefore , much stronger.
It harder to score on 1vs1 because there is not enough space.
So what Olympiakos is doing?
They are an extremely well trained team.
You can see how they develop on fastbreak.How the wings run how they set their feet to shot the ball and everything. It’s so simple but so hard to do it at the same time. They space the floor with detail.
In addition , every player shares the ball and no one is over the team.
Bartzokas secret weapon are the big guys , he likes to create through them. From the post up game , they create an inside out game that opens up easy shots and makes the defense vulnerable because they have to make close out defense.
Defensively , active hands and tough strong players make the life of the offense really hard. Also , coach Bartzokas is not fan of hero ball because think about that, while a player spends 4-5 secs dribbling the ball to play a 1vs1 situation , the defense adjust easy.
Nowadays most euroleague teams have big guys that they can play the switching defense very well or a dinosaur 5 guy who can wait in the paint and disrupt every drive to the basket. So teams change their culture and like Olympiakos they use simple but innovative ways to play basketball.
In order to enhance the fact that we are talking about a great team overall , their budget is not as high as others teams , they are in the middle of that category out of every Euroleague team.
Maybe bc European league is more grounded and technical and the NBA/College/HighSchool is more athletic and skilled? Literally look at Luka, Jovic, and other big euro players… then look at Curry, Lebron, and KD. Completely different levels of what the sport is good at showcasing. Everyone I have mentioned all play different games yet the groups they’re in they’re similar to one another and vastly different than the other group. Now look at Wemby. He is the mix of both. It has nothing to do with one sports or league being better. It’s different competition and it’s different skill sets and play styles. Don’t be dense. No need to belittle things that you don’t prefer. It’s corny. Not every American or European is good. Or bad. But there are many decent to proficient players that always strive to the top.
@@tyreek.6815 from one word I mentioned about nba you wrote a whole essay , saying names and everything ..whatever
I am a Panathinaikos fan but I really admire Olympiacos game play. I believe both teams have a great chance to be in the final four.
Ολυμπιακός εδώ. Μακάρι όλοι οι Παναθηναϊκοι (και Ολυμπιακοι) να ήταν σαν και σένα.
That's what i said too before the season start. Unfortunately we didn't get the signings we aimed for, so it's gonna be really hard to see both Greek teams in F4.
Both teams have great players to start, and with few more additions, next year this will before a reality for sure!
this is such beautiful play. the off ball movement really forces you to pay attention to the game, and not just the ball handler.
oh yeah with Olympiakos it's usual to be actually looking off the ball than the guy who has it
olympiacos deserves more recognition
so good job to publish this video
thank you!
Amazing video and great analysis!
Thanks a lot!
Olympiakos brings something different ⚪🔴💪💪💪💪
Oly for the fourth ⭐ this year!
Great video once again my friend. Keep up the good work! Keep educating basketball fans.
I hope the coach to win the euroleague again this year,because he is the best coach in the last years.

OLYMPIACOS
Excellent video analysis
Great video! Hopefully Olympiacos will stay healthy for the rest of the season and maybe this year we go all the way!
thank you! best of luck
we are simple team with less talent like others teams but we are playing elite deff and team plays on offence to find the open the shot and zero ego team...we are like a upgrade version of zalgiris..good deff,pass team plays and PASSION
Oly deserved it last year...this year will be justice 🏆🇬🇷
I wish NBA teams played like this. This is basketball the way it was originally intended to be played. What we have now is a two man game, pick and roll/ skills competition.
beautiful video🔥
thanks a lot!
Great analysis...as an avid Olympiacara I think they are just great to watch...they all believe in the system...and the system works most of the time...when they are healthy....one-on-one is nice to watch...but not all the time and not for the whole duration of the match....anyway hope Olympiacos do well...thanks for giving coach B the credit he deserves 👍
thanks for the comment, I appreciate that!
Augustas (!), enlightening presentation and excellent piece of work!
Thank you very much
Very proud for my team!!!!
We believe we enjoy . We are proud of our team
Give Coach B already the award for the best chess player EVER
Proud of our team for so many reasons, the coach supports his players, Oly plays charismatic basketball which is very enjoyable to watch, players are bonded between them and with the team, Oly fans are just crazy about them, the coach has good thought out strategy different for every game. Win or loose, you have to love them. Euroleague is great!!
Nice analysis
All the things in life make circles and the basketball is the same. To modernize old things and adapt to what is played today is also a thing. Coach b is a wonderful mind with progressive thinking in life and basketball one of the greatest of all time imo. Tha star in olympiakos team are in the bench and his job is exactly that to find ways to win against the biggest budgets of the league with creativity. Also this video proves why stretching power forwards like Sasha Peters Singleton etc are so important in his system instead for example in Ataman's system (talent with basic pnrs) that are the least important players in offense.
Thanks for the comment. I agree, except for the part that PFs were not important in Ataman's systems that won championship. Efes always had a great shooter in that position which unlocked their offense and allowed them to have perfect spacing.
Thank you for being one of the only people recognizing this isn’t new just modernized. It goes back further but it’s basically 2000s spurs basketball. If you look at this team and the 2010 Golden State Warriors the way these 3 teams play you can tell they all have the same foundation of the philosophy of moving the ball. Great teams to watch play and make the game look beautiful.
thank you for acknowledging the greatness of this team! but its more than plays and passing. this team for more than a decade is on the highest level of basketball because of the menrality and stady core of players (mostly greeks: printezis spanoulis papanikolaou etc). and with coaches like Ivkovic ,Sferopoulos and Bartzokas that kept the defense-first mentality.
Beautiful basketball. Maybe I'll even start watching Euro league again just because of them
They are fun to watch, tune in!
Congrats! Someone had to say it about Olympiakos and coach Bartzokas work and sight of the game!
Please can you give an analysis on Panathinaikos of Obradovic years (2007-2011) in Pana way of playing? And what are the differences with the today's Obradovic. Thank you for all your videos!
Thank you! We'll have this idea in mind
Very nice video once again. You people really love and understanding basketball like no other in Europe. Btw Bartzokas as a name sounds very Lithuanian, am i right? -)
Thanks a lot! Maybe a little bit like the first name, yes, not the last name though haha
To put it in a football perspective, Oly is playing tiki taka in offence which requires more mental and teamwork skills rather than a free flowing game which relies mainly on technical skills..Maybe coach B got influenced by barca footbal mentality while in catalunya 🙂
Ωραίος παραλληλισμός!
@@MariosPanaouΌντως!
Olympiakos is our passion ❤ Thank you for this video
Thanks for the comment

Best team and best coach of the season so far
Olympiacos is the next European Champion
George Bartzokas. In two words. We totally adore this person in Greece.
We don't wan't Antentokounmpo's jersey... We want SPANOULIS jersey !!! XD
Like all your videos, this one truly speaks volumes on your insight on the game!
Great video!
On the subject, i have come to dislike the "cowboy" style of offense i. e. Monaco AS, with a super star hogging the ball (and delivering of course) and 4 extras on the set.
Its an exaggeration yes but i hope i make my point.
Keep up the good work guys!
thats the most beautifull basketball actually. and you always have a chance of winning without superstars. even in the nba.
from a panathinaikos fan.
panathinaikos and greece used to play like that in our last golden era (2004-2011)
Coach B constantly swearing like a dock hand also helps 😂
😆🤣 It sure does!!!!
Now that's a brilliant piece of analysis for young players and fans to appreciate the many layers of the game and actively watch basketball. Even more impressive this comes from an American. well done!
Thanks a lot, just one note: I'm from Lithuania!
Love your accent pronouncing Greek names man . Kudos! :)
Thanks, I'm trying my best!
Skills like dribbling and shooting are now very rare to find from greek players. So this style is pretty much a need for a greek team
You should definitely analyze the defense of Olympiacos...
Also, Olympiacos is not famous for offense but you can't say he has mediocre offensive players. The truth is every one of the players you see except Papanikolalou and 1-2 more are no more than a year or two years in the team, meaning they were playing different style of basketball (as you mentioned most teams play differently) and while i am writing this, now i realise what coach Bartzokas meant about the new players "they need time to learn our playstyle". There is a exception to this, the new Center to cover the injuries of Milutinov, Moses Wright got into the system really fast. Most others though really take a lot of time..
Especially this year the team lacks 1v1 players Like Dorsei or Slukas or fire n forget vezenkov but at this moment is going for top 4 in Euroleague and is getting close to 100% performance after many injuries all the year (another thing that you should discuss and make a video, a lot of injuries on many teams in Euroleague etc because there are way too many games every season now that national teams played)
It's not about talent, it's about respecting the basics of the game . R. Madrid uses ball movement and cuts all the time and surely they are not lacking the talent .
That's a very good point!
Amazing strategy
Amazing and focus players! One team that just started to play the basketball they can ! It's 03/03/2024! No one can beat easy olympiacos now! 💪💪
I always loved to play flex and as team we were really succesfull playing it. But I gotta admit that playing it didn‘t really help to develop the neccesary skills to Beat your defender one on one consistantly.
Fantastic analysis! As an Olympiacos fan i am proud of your work guys! Thank you🔴⚪️🤝
this is due to the system of basketball in the US. It is built only for one goal: advance an individual through the system to the next level. This goal drives everything they do, and forces players to focus on showcasing themselves. This results in isolation basketball on offense and no emphasis on defense. This emphasis runs upward to the NBA as those players got there doing that and refuse to listen to coaches asking them to play a different way.
The best way to go about it is to have a team play but always know who is your go-to scorer. That's what the Spurs did. They played team basketball but always knew if things go wrong they go to Duncan who was elite scorer in the paint. Then it was Manu,then Parker and later on Kawhi. That's the best way to go about it. Hard to achieve obviously but is the ideal situation.
All these reflect Bartzokas the player. He was never a star but an important player for a small team, where they had to find ways to be competitive against teams that they were more talented and athletic. This was the way he was playing. A kind of "point power forward" that would move off the ball, cut to the basket for easy layups, avoid dribbling and take advantage of his teammates by passing them the ball in a kinda of flex play.
Beautiful basketball. And very illuminating clip by Coach Clifford. This is part of the reason I'm a Warriors fan, because they emphasize off ball movement more than most NBA teams. I think the reason NBA teams don't do this much anymore is because of all the nonsense the player with the ball is allowed to get away with these days. If you have the ball, you can travel, palm, push off, bump and hook the defender and in the NBA those things are rarely called. Also if you create contact you can flop and get the call half the time. Think of a player like James Harden. If the refs allow the ball handler to get away with all this, then there's no reason to move the ball around.
The reason 1 on 1 and pnr offenses are thriving is not a huge talent jump but rather the officiating that heavily favors the offense. The step back 3 was a rare sight years ago, not because of more talent but because it used to be called a travel.
In my eyes, Real Madrid took Bartzokas' "playbook" adjusted it and gave it to super skillful and talented players to play it - cause arguably RM has superstars in every position. And we all saw the results! And that's what basketball analysts meant 3yrs ago when they predicted Bartzokas basketball will be the future gamestyle of Europe.
Oh god it's so much pleasure just to look how they move on court
one of my favorites team to watch and analyze, definitely
My Gilas Pilipinas plays like this now but in a system called "Triangle Offense". Has less dribbles and more passes. 🇵🇭✊🏻
You need tough sizable players that are not afraid to get bruized because this style of play demands a lot of contact and therefore tons of energy, big rotation and a lot of practice time. Bartzokas was preparing this squad from day one without the pressure of the greek league competition so there was enough time and patience to produce results. Most european coaches, on the other hand have great pressure to win so it is difficult to invest the time to get everybody involved....Owners and fans don^t like to wait and that is why I believe this style of play would suit Zalgiris well( not enough money, educated fans, great production of domestic talent).
This video made me subscribe! Pass pass pass the ball create space and boom!!💥
Love to hear it, thanks!
Is not everything about wins... Is about how you play right
Dribbling is almost forbidden at Olympiakos. Great video!
Those crazy greeks play handball in basketball 😮
Olympiacos literally plays a bit of all ways in the court they dont play like Real madrid who only throw 3 pointers for 40 minutes they will make points from 3 point throws from free throws from lay ups with or without fouls from 2 point throws and yes the Cherry on top is the Passing tactic of Coach B The "Skakisths"(chess player) they will change at least 10 to 12 passes untill they find the right opening for an attack
Your comment about Real is really unfair especially this year. Real is a team that has big talent and a very good coach who uses a similar system to Olympiacos. And no they they are not using free throws so much as other teams(Panathinaikos-Maccabi....). They are an excellent team. This opinion is coming from an Olympiacos fan.

Olympiakos teaches basketball every year... Such a pitty that missed the euroleague champion last year in the last second.. The best team in euroleague in summary for the last 15 years..!!!Olympiakos Piraeus The Legend!!!!
Pretty good analysis but you forgot to talk about the kryptonite of coach b. Yes, this style of basketball is beautiful to watch but when it matters the most talent win the games. If Olympiacos had a talented closer and a leader like spanoulis for example, they would have won back to back euroleague trophies the last 2 years. Instead, the opposite teams had these type of players (micic, llull) who stepped up on crunch time and eventually won the title for their teams.
Best team in Europe without so much millions
TEAM
Coach Bartzokas and Olympiacos deserve to win at least one Euroleague🔴⚪️
The legend is teaching basketball.. I am referring to Olympiakos of course...
Ladies and gentlemen, that's the back2back coach of the year! 💯
Coach B is one of the top 3 coaches in Euroleague.
