Satisfied with his players’ effort in the overtime loss (77-75) of Pigeon bwin from Hapoel Jerusalemstated Vasilis Spanouliswho also expressed some complaints about arbitrationreferring to the free throw differential.
In detail what Vassilis Spanoulis said:
“It was a great match against a team that is one of the favorites for the title. They have depth and quality on the roster and are a big organization. I am proud of my team and my players that we played like that in the first half. Then we lost on the last shot. In the last shot, in the last possession, you might win, you might lose. It’s all about luck, with a shot. The most important thing for me was that my players fought and gave everything. We have put our team in a position where we face every opponent head on, showing no fear. But we have to be determined, organized and play good basketball. I want to see the game again, because in such a match with so many contacts from both teams, I see that the shots are 17-36 for Hapoel at our home. I have to watch the match again. Congratulations to Hapoel and my friend Ilias Kanzouris. We continue».
On his part, Mr Kenny Williams he said: “It was a tough game, but in the end we didn’t get the phase we should have. We have to give credit to Smith. He put a difficult shot, on defense. All we can do is go back to work tomorrow, watch the video and see what we should have done better and move on. We have games to play so we must not let this result spoil our season».
