“First of all, I want to thank the team for their great effort in today’s victory. We fairly demonstrated dominant basketball throughout the game and earned a well-deserved win. We showed an intense performance. The one-day rest was beneficial for the team members. It had a positive effect on the players’ mentality. However, nothing is...
“There is no excuse for our defeat. Physical fatigue cannot be a reason because the opponent competed under the same conditions. The opponent showed a mobile, dynamic game. As for us, nothing worked out. The fact that the next game will be held on Sunday gives the players some opportunity to rest. This is the...
“We started the game very poorly. At one point, the point difference even reached 20. However, it’s not a disaster. We are leading in the series. It was a worthy game for the final series. I congratulate the opponent on their victory. Since we play every other day, we don’t have time for extra training...

We made some mistakes and could have performed better in certain moments. The opponent was well-prepared for the game. Now we’ll focus on getting ready for the...
“I’m happy with the win. Although we built a 30-point lead in the first two periods, I wasn’t satisfied with the team’s performance in the next two quarters. This is our job—we have to maintain a high level of play regardless of the score. We made mistakes on defense. We must learn something from every...
