Ettore Messina takes stock of injuries
The words of Ettore Messina
Ettore Messina spoke after the sprint win in Casale: “I would like to congratulate Tortona, which played a very good game, reacting after the difficult first half. We finished a very tough week, I cannot get over the fact that the game with Olympiacos was only five days ago. We brought home two wins and a good first half in Madrid. To win here a great result, without Mirotic, Lo and Baron”.
"Melli lifted the team’s weight, Tonut in the worst moment kept us up and Poythress’ finish, not only on offense, but especially on defense è was decisive. In a period when we don’t make baskets from outside, I had said we had to win the rebounding battle. We finished 40-23 and making 19 points from offensive rebounding. The guys were fantastic”.
Closing remark on the condition of the injured: “During the week we recover Maodo Lo and Mirotic, then we hope toward the end of November to find Baron".
