Trapani, Jasmin Repesa does not intend to make calculations with Virtus Bologna

During an’interview given to the microphones of the “Repubblica edition Bologna”, the head coach of the Trapani Shark Jasmin Repesa, among other topics covered, spoke bluntly ahead of the challenge with the Virtus Bologna, valid for the 30th day of the A Series of basketball.

“I am curious to see how we will respond to their physicality, to the extra ten pounds Virtus will have at every position. We need the perfect contest. Smart, as well as physical. In the first round I made mistakes too, I knew little about the team, I was still looking for the right rotations. I kept Robinson in for 36 minutes, he had dragged us from -19 to +5, then made the last decisive mistakes because he was exhausted” began the Sicilians’ coach.

“We are not thinking about the playoffs yet. We will go to Bologna with the’intention of winning. We are interested in first place, no team has beaten us twice and I would like to even the score with Virtus as well. We also want to give joy to the 800 fans who will go all that way to support us even on the road” added the Trapani head coach.

“Bologna has turned a corner in Belgrade. They are physical, tough, the typical playoff team. Milan is lighter, talented, with more players who can become stars, but the playoffs have strange stories. I don’t know what work Messina is doing ahead of the post-season, however, we played well. In one quarter our defense held them to 12 points. There’s been hunger, desire, amazing crowd, but also chemistry” concluded Jasmin Repesa.
