Chaos erupts in the Greek Basketball League finals as government suspends games amid violence and owner defiance.

The Greek Basketball League finals have been thrown into turmoil as the government intervenes following violent clashes during a pivotal match between Panathinaikos and Olympiacos. The series, currently tied at 1-1, has seen Game three postponed, leaving fans and players alike in a state of uncertainty.

The explosive tension reached a boiling point at the Peace and Friendship Stadium, where Olympiacos claimed victory but not without controversy. The match was marred by the ejection of Panathinaikos coach Ergin Ataman and the dramatic escorting of owner Dimitris Giannakopoulos from the arena. Such incidents are not new; the rivalry between these two clubs is steeped in a history of intense competition and violence that transcends basketball.

In an effort to restore order, the owners of both clubs were summoned to meet with the country`s sports minister, tasked with providing assurances that the violence will cease. However, their refusal to attend a joint meeting raises questions about the future of the championship. With the government threatening to cancel the finals if compliance is not met, the stakes have never been higher for both teams.
