.

Pallacanestro Varese assistant coach Marco Legovich spoke ahead of the challenge against Germani Brescia, valid for the ninth day of LBA. "The last ten days have been very important for us because we have achieved three consecutive victories in key clashes both in the league and in the FIBA Europe Cup – he pointed out. Unfortunately, we suffered the injury of Sean McDermott, for the team è was good at reacting, compacting, staying together, also thanks to the contribution of Sean himself who, despite the injury, grabbed a rebound in the final game against Scafati that è was fundamental".

"Speaking of the cup, we had to win in Tbilisi and we did it; we managed to advance to the next round and we are very happy – he added -. Now we have a Second Round ahead of us that will surely be more competitive and interesting, composed of teams we will have to deal with right away such as Chemnitz that è first in Germany so for us it will be another opportunity to grow".

On the upcoming opponents he said: "Sunday we return to play in the LBA, where we will face a deep, strong, physical and aggressive team like Brescia that comes from a defeat accrued only in the final against Virtus Bologna. A tough game awaits us where we will have to be good at putting in all the energy we have to spend right now to keep up at the level of energy and physicalityà and then express on the court our game made of transition, running, aggressivenessà in’attacking the area, all things that open up our three-point shots".

"As mentioned above, Germani è a complete team that expresses a choral basketball with many performers who can be protagonists within the game. There are not only Della Valle and Bilan, but players of the caliber of Christon, Petrucelli, Burnell, Cournooh, the same Massinburg who last week è was important confirming the improvements of last year. In short, a balanced team that turns out to be one of the best defenses but also one of the best offenses in the league, coached very well by a coach for whom I have great esteem like Alessandro Magro. It will be a very difficult game in which we will have to be good at facing their physicality trying to impose our game even on the road, even against a team that has shown to play until the last against the first in the standings" said Legovich.
