Quotes Pedro Martínez

“I don’t think the problem is fatigue; the problem is that we played against a great team. In the second quarter, we had major problems and turnovers, and they scored a lot of baskets off our turnovers. This was a big problem for our concentration and our confidence. I think they played better than us, with very experienced players who punished our mistakes.”
