Bologna –<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Coach Sergio Scariolo spoke in a press conference after the game<\/strong>: “We approached the game in the right way, with intensity and aggressiveness that we were able to maintain for good times. We played a good game against an aggressive and athletic team that attacked us without any fear, after all they beat us in the first half. In the last quarter we relaxed a bit, making some mistakes that we need to avoid. However, we had a good defensive tone and a good sharing of the ball. We want to be a little less prissy with the ball in our hands and avoid some trivial lost balls. Hervey is progressing in his recovery, he is very important for us because he has the sense of touching a ball, of stealing it, he has the ability to invent play. Mannion also had a good game. A balance up to now? We must recognize that in Europe we have not kept the highest level in the difficult moments, we have paid the absence of some players but we have not been able to keep a little bit more, because the EuroCup and our group is of the highest level. We have to be humble but not less ambitious and have the ability to support on the court those players that in the international arena have a certain history. Everyone always puts in the effort, then there are those who are more or less hard, those who are more or less ready and it’s the performance that is fundamental. Hackett’s arrival, in this sense, will be significant because he has demonstrated all these things: he has built his career on toughness and intelligence to stay on the court.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":45749,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[268,256,248],"tags":[269,265],"class_list":["post-45758","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-primo-piano-en","category-a-league","category-news","tag-app-en","tag-evidence"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
