He celebrated his sixth consecutive victory in the Euroleague on Thursday night Olympicwho prevailed by a score 92-69 of Baskonia at SEF for the 11th matchday of the competition.
After the end of the match, Alec Petersspoke to Nova’s camera both about his participation time and the confidence he has in himself, but also about the fact that the “red and white” have managed to turn the Faleri stadium into a “castle” this year.
Alec Peters’ statements in detail:
For the match: “We were pretty good, they pressured us at the start, Howard pressured Walkup with the fouls, but we did a good job defending, much better than in previous games. When you score over 90 points it always helps.”
For the public, who wanted 94 points again: “That’s nice, in some perverse way they had it in mind, but at that moment what we had was enough. We are proud to have scored 90+ on our pitch and have made it the toughest place to play.”
For absences: “We all know we have a very good team, that’s why we built it like this, to deal with situations like injuries, which are part of basketball. Those who play are proud to wear the shirt and do their best. We are not perfect, not bulletproof, no one can ever be perfect, in the second half they pressured us, but in the end we won.”
For his participation time: “I have confidence in my abilities, I know there is talk about me, it’s different from last year, but I know I can do it, I’ve been playing at the highest level for years, I feel good that I offered and now I’ll have 1-2 days to relax” .
On whether this attitude stems from experience and family: “When you’re young, it’s hard to have perspective, it comes with experience. My family is important to me, they support me all the years I play basketball. I have a wonderful wife, my daughter, my parents who support me. It’s great, whatever the result on the pitch, they want to see you and talk to you and support you, when you have something like that you can’t lose.”
