Peppe Poeta spoke after the Vitoria loss: “We did not play a good game. Our physical condition is not good, Ellis, Booker and Tonut with a fever, Lorenzo returned today, That’s still no excuse, we could have done better, but the energy of Baskonia did not allow us to compete as we would have liked.”
