    Olympiakos will play Barcelona in the Euroleague final after edging Partizan Belgrade 83-80 in overtime on Friday.

    Barcelona beat CSKA Moscow 64-54 in the first semifinal.

    Olympiakos went up 77-72 in overtime on a dunk by Ioannis Bourousis and Linas Kleiza's jump shot.

    After Jan Vesely made a 3-point play to get Partizan within 77-75, Bourousis grabbed three offensive rebounds and made two free throws to extend Olympiakos' lead to 79-75.

    Milos Teodosic's free throws made it 83-80 for Olympiakos, and Aleksandar Rasic missed a 3-pointer that would have forced another overtime.
