After a two-week break due to the obligations of the Men’s National in the Qualifiers of the 2023 World Cup, the championship resumes, with the 9th game of the Stoiximan Basket League.
THE Hercules returns to competitive action, after three weeks, as the match with Ionikos was postponed, for the 8th game, facing tomorrow (05/12, 20:00, ERT3), away from home Colossus. Speaking about the match with the Rodites, the coach of the “blue and whites”, Costas Mexas, argued:
“We have a game ahead of us with the Colossus, which is very difficult. We play against a team that has the strong stamp of its coach on both sides of the floor. It has very good results and very good psychology. It will be for us a match, with many demands, energy and spiritual on both sides of the field.
We must be ready to respond to this piece in 40 minutes. To try to limit the things that the Colossus does well in his attack, where he has a very strong element of creation, as well as the transition game, along with the games for Williams, which are very important, because they give a lot of things to Colossus with screens, away from the ball. And on the other hand, to be ready aggressively, to read the opponent’s defense and the things he does to find solutions in our own attacking half.
We believe that, despite the problems we have had all this time, with injuries and absences, the team has worked quite well. We hope that we will be ready and competitive for 40 minutes, in order to claim what is due to us, seeking the best possible result, because in the situation we are in at the moment, there is no match in which we will not fight to win “.
Hercules will complete today (04/12) the preparation for tomorrow (05/12) match, with an afternoon training indoors in Kallithea, Rhodes. The mission of the “blue and white” team the following basketball players: Woolridge, Stamatis, Skordilis, Garrett, Phillios, Agravanis, Taylor, Charitopoulos, Petanidis, Kouzeloglou, Douglas, Papadakis.
