Solid first half, rebounds and defense in the second half guaranteed us control

The words of Ettore Messina after the success of race-2:

«Congratulations to my players, they played hard and built a solid first half. Then these are games that don’t end in the first half, the second was much more physical, we sometimes lost control a bit but defense and rebounds allowed us to keep the double-digit advantage. We have earned the opportunity to play game-5 at the Forum ».

On race-3: «When there is a certain stake at stake, it is not for everyone to maintain a bit of composure. We have to go there, play our game and expect nothing. They are an excellent team, what has happened so far counts for zero. It is useless to think about what could happen on the pitch ».

On the pressure: «We put it on us from day one because we want to do well. We can’t go after it all because you waste too much energy. Out of 12 players there are those who will be snowy, some less, who will think it is already done. Let’s just focus on us. We are 2-0, it will not be the first time that a 2-0 team goes to the Final Four, or that a 2-0 team then goes out. I don’t comment on the nervousness of the opposing team ».
