Dan Peterson pushes Olimpia Milano to Euroleague playoffs

Dan Peterson’s words.

Dan Peterson believes Olimpia Milano can still qualify for the Euroleague playoffs.

“Here I’m going with cold feet. The reason? My predictions and praise are often ‘the kiss of death’ for the teams I would like to praise! That said, it is impossible not to see that Olimpia (“dead and buried”) showed that the “obituaries” about its health were premature!” he wrote in Gazzetta dello Sport.

“To finish with an 18-16 record (the minimum, as they claim) they need to go 7-1 in their last 8 games. Not easy, but not impossible! As they repeat in the United States, “That’s why they play the games.” Translated: that’s why they play the games.”
