The words of Neven Spahija on the eve of Reyer Venezia-Olimpija Ljubljana

On Tuesday, Nov. 7 at 8 p.m. at Palasport Taliercio, Reyer Venezia will take on Slovenians from Olimpija Ljubljana in the sixth day of Eurocup.

Coach Neven Spahija spoke this way at the press conference: "We hope to have as many players available as possible for the game against Ljubljana. They come to Taliercio without any wins, but that does not mean anything because theyé will play with great motivation and they have a good roster. We are preparing the game and we will have to pay great attention to their best players starting with Klemen Prepelic, Jaka Blazic and Karlo Matkovic, although they have several strong ones. We will have to be ready to respond to every situation that Olimpia'Olimpia" will propose.

"In the last few games we have shot very poorly, but I don’t want our team to think about that becauseé we have great shooters and everyone can help the team even when the percentages are low. The shooting percentage of the last two games is not è acceptable, but it happens in basketball and we should not put pressure on ourselves. Instead, we need to focus on playing our defense, rebounding on both sides of the court and doing the little things that are useful to the team" concluded the coach of the lagoon team.
