In the most crucial game of the series, the team of Panathinaikos in a decisive fourth period beat the team of Olympiakos with 72-76 in a game that never ended as 1.27' before the end, the referees stopped the game and aksed all the funs of the home team to leave the court in order to continue without funs, nearly two hours after that and even though most of the funs left the court, the referees decided that the game will not continue and that the team of Panathinaikos was the winner of the game.
In a few words, the team of Coach Argiris Pedoulakis sweeps the the team of Coach Bartzokas with a 3-0 series and wins the double as the Hellenic cup was also green since last March.
The MVP of the game was the unbeatalbe 3D, Dimitris Diamantidis (196-G-80) with his 18 points, his 7 rebounds, and his 2 assists while the veteran Kostas Tsartsaris (209-F-79) was also amazing as he proved in the most crucial game of the season that he stil has it, his 14 points, 6 assists and 3 rebounds proved to be more than enough for his team. This is the 33rd championship for Panathinaikos and the 16th in the last 18 years, from 1998 and onwards.
Coach Argiris Pedoulakis succeeded to do the small miracle as with a bright new team concisting of 10 bright new players managed to win the double and lost the final four in details.... The after Obradovic season was not so bad for Panathinaikos after all......
The top scorers of the 3rd and final game were the following: OSFP: Pritnezis 14, Spanoulis 13 and Hines 10 PAO: Dimitris Diamantidis (196-G-80) 18, Kostas Tsartsaris 14, Lasme 12, Maciulis 11, Ukic 10
