SASSARI. «That break received in the final second quarter has completely taken away our confidence. From that moment on, everything was more difficult. We have to get the monkey off us. ‘ Demis Cavina chews bitter for the second home defeat of his Dinamo in the last 4 days, after Sunday’s knockout against Brescia. “In my opinion we have played the best first half of our European journey so far – says the Dinamo coach -, but I believe that our biggest mistake was to allow Prometey to gain confidence and recover the lengths we had won, in particularly between the second and third quarters when they managed to place a break that somehow took away our confidence. This changed the game and especially in the end we had great problems in defense while on the other hand they found a lot of baskets, even difficult ones, and consequently also confidence. We also made a lot of mistakes in pick & roll defenses and clearly in the last few minutes we played with a completely different energy than what we did at the beginning ».

How can you get out of this particular moment? «The team needs trust and above all a tough match on the part of everyone and not only in terms of numbers but of continuity. We must try to find ourselves complete as quickly as possible so as not to make the mistakes we saw on Sunday and in this match, we must avoid going to tears. To win these matches we need a team match: in the first half we didn’t all play well but we all defended well, then we disbanded in the second half. We must immediately take off the monkey – concludes the coach of Banco di Sardegna – and the Milan match will help us in this because it is a game without pressure for us ». (a.si.)
