Olimpia Milano, Ettore Messina breathes: “I am very happy.”
Universo Treviso – Olimpia Milano 80-93
Coming back from the double beating suffered in the Euroleague, which also opened some deep reflections in the same coach of the ‘Red Shoes’, Olimpia Milano raised its head again in the league going to win on the court of Universo Treviso. All in all, a convincing test, that of the meneghini, although those dangerous drops in concentration paid dearly in Europe were still seen in some phases of the game.
“I am really happy, we won against a healthy team that is playing well, in a very warm and beautiful Palaverde like in the best of times. We played well for large stretches, then we had a few moments when we rush things and throw away a few too many balls,” Ettore Messina began in the press conference.
“Overall we competed well, passed the ball well, shot well, and fought hard on defense. We also absorbed Pangos’ absence well, with a good game from Mitrou-Long and useful minutes from Baldasso. Of course Davies was very present.”
“The feeling is that we had a good distribution of points, with three players in double figures and everyone who played making at least one basket. 19 assists against 12 turnovers is a good balance. I am happy in short, we played a good game. Now we try to keep growing,” the coach concluded.
