Natural result of its appearance Panathinaikos characterized the victory of the “greens” The Israel Gonthaleth. The Alba coach recognized her superiority of the opponent and avoided using his absence as an excuse Sikma.
Detailed what he said
For the reasons of defeat: “Congratulations to Panathinaikos, he played very well and deserved the victory. We were very good in the first half, with high percentages and good offensive function. I did not like our defense at all, Panathinaikos was constantly entering our racket, it was constantly penetrating. It was difficult to deal with. In the second half we were bad in defense, while we had no solutions in attack. We insisted on the three-pointers, we got difficult shots. “We have to play with more balance.”
On whether Alba Berlin was seduced in the second half by the well-aimed three-pointers of the first part: “We shot very well in the first half and we circulated the ball properly. We touched the ball inside, we ran in the transition, we found good positions. In the replay we did not do it, we held the ball in our hands. We did not have good spacing, we took the worst possible positions and we did not find a score “.
For the absence of Luke Sikma: “This year is the first time he is missing. He is the best rebounder of the team. We missed his rebounds. The way he fights is important. But we have to learn how to play without him. We have the quality to do it “.
