Owner of Greek basketball giant PanathinaikosaWho,, Dimitros Giannakopoulos (51), known for incidents, verbal clashes and conflicts with the Euroleague and its representatives and judges. On her Instagram, after the defeat of Panathinaikos of Anadol Ephesus, in the second game of playoffs at home (79-76), she fired at the top of the Euroleague, especially Dejan Bodirogi and judges.
In the video, he listed several judges, then wondered how Real Madrid could allow him to be stunned. He also said that he did not care about the penalties he would receive and to punish him because they cannot deal with him, but that they cannot punish the players (Kendricka Nunna, Facunda Campazza and others) who will fuck them all. While he was most shouting, he said he would remove the Euroleague club, and he also showed his crotch. To make the whole performance complete, he yelled while practicing on a running strap.
– Real Madrid, a club with so many history and a title, agrees to be so **? Bravo, Dejane. Bravo, Bravo. It hurts me for your penalties you want my j*Beni signature for the Euroleague for the next 10 years? Here you are (showing the penis). Play the Euroleague on your own, we go to NBA or Fibu – Giannakopoulos howled.
Countless incidents
This is not the only incident of the Greek businessman. After one match against CSKA Moscow, when, according to the referee’s report, he fell into the locker room of the judges, he threw it at them a decorative candle and said scary threats: « I will kill you. You will not leave Greece alive tonight! I promise you with my own eyes. » He was also threatened with the murder of their families and sexual violence against family members. He was punished earlier by similar threats of judges. After the match against Maccabi, Giannakopoulos was provoked by waving his wallet to the judges and insulting Maccabi fans, trying to break through their stands before the insurance stopped him.
Giannakopoulos’s history of conflict with the Euroleague lasts a very long time. In 2018, he organized a fan referendum on the rest of the club in the Euroleague, threatening to leave if fans vote to stay, which happened, but Giannakopoulos remained the owner. Recently, after the match against Partizan, he again accused the Euroleague of « theft of time, energy and money » and was punished with € 80,000 and a ban on arriving at three games. And in March this year, he, coach Ataman The club was also punished with a total of € 32,500 for commenting on trial.
His conflict with a Croatian basketball player is also known Dino Raja who played for the club from Athens in the late 1990s. They fought after the game and Rasa hit him, after which he apologized, but also got a « leg » from the club. It’s not his only such incident with players from his own club. After defeating 0: 3 of Fenerbahçe in the Euroleague quarterfinals in 2017, he punished the players by banning them with a return by plane from Istanbul, making them an exhausting 11-hour bus trip to Athens.
He can often be seen in the hall as he roars, takes off his T -shirt, smokes cigars, throws objects on the field and gets a Euroleague penalty for all this, but obviously he is not interested in it.
