Coach Cavina complains about the lack of continuity and asks for time to grow “The public has understood our difficulties and has always supported us, thank you”
SASSARI. “I know the Sassari audience well, I have always said that in all these years the matches have been shot thanks to them and the final applause is the point from which we must start again”. Demis Cavina tries to bring home the most positive message of the evening. «We are an emotional team especially among young people and Americans – says the coach – and I have to thank because we need this kind of boost so much. The public understood the difficulties and has always supported us ».
Here, then, are the difficulties. «We had a second quarter that was not positive – explains Cavina -, which did not allow us to stay in the game, both in the percentages and in the executions. We reacted by returning to a draw but without ever having continuity in the important moments. Congratulations to Brescia who, with the quality of a deep roster, played a game of quality and substance. We must try to find ourselves with great positivity and understand that something different is needed in terms of rhythm and quality in our attack, at the level of executions ».
What happened after the very good start to the third period that had brought Banco back to 41-41? «I don’t have well in mind the sequence of our attacks in that phase but I remember“ unforced ”turnovers after there were many also in the first half. There may be several reasons: an emotional one, or a still too alternate process that requires more time. When we play with teams against Brescia, which are built in the opposite way to ours, our flaws are enhanced. I’m sorry because I said that the work week had been positive and led to intense training, but that doesn’t count. We basically repeated the race with Reggio Emilia for the most part. It’s a shame because the sensations before the race were very positive ». (a.si.)
