Monaco –<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Coach Scariolo post-game:<\/strong> “Congrats to Monaco and Coach Obradovic, at the end of the 40 minutes they deserved the win. They are by far the most athletic team in the competition and it’s quite hard to play them in the paint. We selected our shots well but unfortunately we didn’t have a good three-point shooting percentage. We created excellent looks which didn’t go in. On our defensive end, we tried, but their 15 offensive rebounds made the difference. I am not totally unhappy with our effort as we have many players who are not in good physical condition. We found a way to compete and we proved that we belong in this competition, even if Monaco is on another level from the physical point of view. They deserve their position in the ranking and I wish them good luck for the rest of the competition. They are athletic, young and putting a lot of pressure on their opponents, meaning that you have to make buckets from the outside \u2013 but it’s hard. It’s not just their physical condition, it’s the hustle, the effort and the desire to put this athleticism into the service of the team.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":55552,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[307,268,256,248],"tags":[308,269,265],"class_list":["post-55559","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-euroleague-en","category-primo-piano-en","category-a-league","category-news","tag-euroleague-en","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
