OR National treats us tonight (20:00) the France At OAKA, in its last friendly clash before the launch of its obligations at Eurobasket.
Prior to this showdown, Gerson Yabouselli interviewed “Basketnews” where he expressed his goals with the “tricolors” in the face of him tournamentwhile expressing his impatience to play in Glass Floor of OAKA.
In detail what he said:
For National France: “We still have a new team with a new generation, so obviously everyone’s role will be a little different from our previous course. But the fact that we know each other is better to talk on the court if something has to be said. We will not get it wrong because we know each other and know that we are trying to make everyone better and try to play together and achieve something special. “
For the climate in the group: “When we are on the court you can feel the energy on the bench, on the parquet, everywhere. My role is not to be the leader and to behave as if I want to do that too. I’m just trying to convey whatever the coach wants to do. And at the end of the day, I’m just trying to stay positive. I want everyone to be positive, bring good energy and get ready to win. “
For his own goals with the National and the NBA: “A gold medal with France would be special. I have been playing with the team for years and every time we get the silver. So I think gold would be the next goal for us. But, of course, winning an NBA championship is also something special. I have never been part of that. Both would be great. “
For renovated Telekom Center Athens: “Good enough, they have a new stadium, it looks amazing, I like the parquet, it’s a little different, so I’m looking forward to playing here. I would say that European fans are a little different. We are in one of the stadiums (OAKA) where fans go crazy. So Europe is a little different, but New York definitely has a hard audience. “
