Musa: “Let’s do the back-to-back, break the curse”

The desire of everyone at Real Madrid to conquer the Euroleague for the second season in a row was pointed out by Moussa in the press conference of the final.

The ace of the Spanish team even referred to the curse that exists that wants the team that finishes first in the regular season not to get the trophy, declaring that he is happy that they have the opportunity to break it.

Moussa’s statements in detail:

“Congratulations to Panathinaikos. We are excited to be able to do back to back. It’s not easy. We will do everything. I’m excited for the final.”

On the homogeneity of Real:



“That means nothing. We have made the best moves, bringing in the best point guard in Europe, Campacho. He helped us a lot. But I know Ataman well and know what he can achieve and how hard he can make his players. I think everyone adapted well to Panathinaikos and we respect them.”

For the curse of the first in the regular season who does not get the trophy:



“It’s nice that we will have the opportunity to be the first team to do it. But there are no favorite words. As the coach said, we are playing against a great team, Panathinaikos. We prepared 10 months for this moment, we will be ready to get the victory”.

On the difficulties he faced in his career:



“It was difficult at times, especially when I came back from the NBA. When I was with Ataman in Ephesus it was a challenge for me. But, I learned a lot. In Spain they helped me to become MVP of the top league in Europe. Thanks Breogan. Real Madrid is a trophy for me just by wearing this shirt. I’m at my peak, at my best moment”
