"Bayern è came here with great concentration to impose their basketball with great physicalityà, and throughout the first 20 minutes we struggled, they collected good attacks and a great advantage on rebounds as well. The positive aspect for us è that we adapted after halftime, we increased the level of our defensive consistency, better pressure on the ball".
"We forced some mistakes and controlled rebounds much better, but also offensively we changed the quality" of our basketball, going to the free throw line with more continuity, trying to touch the basket, getting into their defense, playing with a flow that è more familiar to our style. I have to congratulate our opponents but also our team, for the strength, the confidence they showed during the 40 minutes despite the score without stopping believing, and and and for being patient. Tonight was about being patient and continuing to believe that sooner or later we would catch up with them".
