With confidence in… God, after Tuesday’s break, o Lorenzo Brown Maccabi aspires to win a second match against Panathinaikostonight at OAKA (21:15) in Game 2 of the Euroleague playoffs.
“The second game will be completely different and we will have to go in with the same mindset. Our confidence is high. We are a group of fighters, we worked hard and we always know that in the moment of truth one can rely on the other. We will leave Athens with 2-0, that is our plan and I believe we can succeed“, the American guard pointed out to Israel Hayom.
“We are good, but we are not satisfied only with what we achieved in the first game. There are still many matches left in the series and we know that Panathinaikos will react and make adjustments. That’s the secret to the playoffs. Whichever team is better prepared will win. The second game will be much more difficult. Let’s not forget that last year we started with a win against Monaco, but lost the series at the end. But we have players who know how to react in such conditions“, he added.
“Our team went through a lot this year and they prepared us for the difficult times like the playoffs. Had it not been for the war, I am sure we would have finished in the top three of the regular season. Everyone in the Euroleague knows this. For me Oded Katas deserves the title of coach of the year, because he has managed to bring out the best in the team and constantly show its character in very difficult circumstances“, concluded.
