First of all I would like to express deepest condolences and sympathy to all those who lost their relatives, the loved ones in this terrible tragedy. Also I’d like to say thank you to the fans who came here to support the team on Sunday. We played to different halves, especially if you talk about defensive approach. We started badly, we let the opponents to score second chance points, we did not execute the defensive tasks set before the game. Kalev had too many open shots in the first half, they made 7 of 10 three-pointers. In the second half we improved, started to defend actively , controlled the air and forced the opponents to make 18 turnovers. I don’t have any complaints about our offense, we ran it well, creating good looks.
