Decision Looms Over Ataman's Future at Panathinaikos

Recent poor performances by Panathinaikos in the EuroLeague have raised doubts about Ergin Ataman's future as the team's coach. Despite the support of Dimitris Giannakopoulos, criticism of the Turkish coach and the roster has increased. Reports suggest that this season is crucial for Ataman, with the goal of winning the European title at the OAKA. If he fails to do so, he is expected to leave the team. A similar situation prevails at Olympiacos, with Giorgos Bartzokas also under pressure. The potential return of Zeljko Obradovic to the coaching market has sparked discussions about possible changes at both Panathinaikos and Olympiacos. Furthermore, Vasilis Spanoulis' future at Monaco appears uncertain. The management of Panathinaikos is expected to make final decisions about the team's future at the end of the season, taking into account performances in the EuroLeague and the Cup. Winning the European title is a primary goal for Panathinaikos, and failure to do so will have serious consequences for Ataman and his players.
