The words of Assistant Coach Diana on the eve of the game with Brindisi: “We face the third game of the week, or rather, the fourth if we consider last Sunday’s trip to Trento, we will have to give all our remaining energy against a very physical and athletic team as Brindisi is. They have a lot of arrows in their bow, two guards like Reed and Bowman, and as a change from the bench Mascolo whom we know well from last year, a three like Burnell skilled both inside the area in the post-bass but also reliable from three points, two perimeter fours Etou and Mezzanotte and finally Perkins, one of the most prolific centers in the LBA. We will have to put great attention defensively, be ready to protect the area, to hold in one-on-one, they are the team that goes to the lunette the most in the entire A Series. Let’s say that the keys to our match will be the individual responsibility that will have to be put in the one-on-ones and the defensive cooperation in protecting the area and also ensuring that we fight for rebounds. We come from two consecutive defeats in the Euroleague where, however, we showed that we are competitive, and that is important. We take the court tomorrow with the desire to redeem these two defeats, trying to maintain our unbeaten streak in the league.”
