Frank Vitucci’s words ahead of Nutribullet Treviso-GeVi Napoli
Coach Frank Vitucci presented in a press conference the championship challenge against GeVi Napoli, scheduled for Sunday at 4:30 p.m. at Palaverde: "The phrase of a coach like Gregg Popovich who says: after a series of defeats in a row, my players should be tired of kicking butt. Here, I expect a reaction of pride from my players after this bad start to the season".
"Napoli è a very good team, I would not call it a revelation because it has made important investments and set up an interesting roster, it has a lot of quality in offense and we will have to focus on that under the defensive aspect because there are many players with points in their hands that we will have to keep a special eye on" – added the coach of the Veneto club -. We can not not have extra motivation at this point, the team must take the field to put everything è in its possibilities" to bring home the result we want".
On the physical condition of the team: "We have Young coming back after the gastroenteritis that kept him out in Bologna, we will see if Bowman will be able to come back after a month, we will evaluate his condition at the last, of course we will not have Torresani who è out for a while' after hand surgery, for the rest normal season aches and pains to be managed".
"Our fans com'è natural are angry about the performance of this first part of the season, this fits us all and shows the attachment that there's here for the team and the club. We are also not happy with the way it is going and I know, as I always say, that it will be up to us to give the public the first input with total commitment and application in the game, if we have the right approach to the game even the Palaverde I am sure will follow us with its warmth. I am counting on the team to give the right signal and I am sure the public if we are good at involving them will help us as always. We have a lot of desire to start winning, all together" concluded Vitucci.
