Rick Pitino has no plans of coaching Panathinaikos B.C. of the EuroLeague for long and said so following the team's 12th loss of the season Thursday.
"I looked at the schedule when I took over, I knew it was going to be difficult," Pitino said according to EuroHoops.net. "My goal is to help all the young guys improve and get better. But, I'm only here for a short sabbatical, so I'm trying to get them the best they can possibly be. Going into next year, I'll say to the owner and the general manager, this is what you need, to win the EuroLeague and to compete for the triple crown.
