In detail what Vezenkov said at sport-fm.gr:



“We knew from her friendly, that Basconia is going high, all her games ended at 90 points. We wanted to play defense, in the first period we did it, from the second quarter and then we were not good, but in the attack we found solutions, though we were a bit misplaced, and we managed to win. Every win in the Euroleague is important because it gives you confidence, but you have to learn, because I am of the opinion that you better win and then learn than to lose a game. Victory is a habit, nothing changes, we continue to work, to see why we ate 96 points and to be corrected ».

For what was wrong and Olympiacos could not finish the match earlier: “We lost some free shots, we wanted not to make mistakes and not give them easy points in the transition, but I think the Basconia on its stadium will go all its games over 90 points. We were prepared but we have to improve in defense ».

For whether it’s too early to judge: “We can’t judge something October. We have to be healthy, most importantly, because there are too many games, many teams and other tactics every game. To stay compact and continue a journey in which every game is important, but the destination is far away. Let’s enjoy it together and go to play with the game ».

For starting with 3/14 but put the critical: “I lost some very easy. If you ask me if I am happy with my personal performance I will say no, some finishes and some shots that I wanted to put on, but the latter I have worked very much, I knew that Evan would give me the pass and put it. I should not spoil my mind, there will be nights that will not come in, if it all starts with the defense and we control the rhythm, everything will go well. “.

For Real: “Another style, another group, more experienced, more slow tempo, with much more talent and experience than Basconia. We have to be ready. Much better team than last year and want to show that they are here. “
