Quotes Rubén Burgos post J9 EuroLeague Women vs Fenerbahce Opet

“We will have to draw conclusions, obviously the first thing we as a staff from the video, from the decisions, since we have not been able after that good start to change the dynamics of the game again with the decisions made and obviously individually we also have to correct many mistakes, because there have been, lack of tension, disconnections and basic aspects. In the game plan we had three key points, first the turnovers, this team scores a lot after turnovers, lower their shooting percentages, especially two-point shots and control the rebounding. We have only fulfilled one, the rebounding, because in no case we have lowered their two-point shooting percentages, if they were already good with 58% and they have finished with 60% and today especially their success in the three-point shot was a little bit out of the script, but the result of the confidence that gave them playing with the wind in their favor and after recoveries and good defenses”.

“That's when the game changed, when they began to harden the defense and those losses have subtracted us a lot of energy in defense, it should not be so, when you score less, is when you must defend harder, we have not met that maxim and they with inertia, they are a team obviously very talented, very experienced and in their field they are very strong. We will have to learn from this game, because in two weeks we face them again in the Fonteta, correct those details will be key to have chances to win. Obviously, the most important thing, our improvement and knowing that against aggressive defenses taking care of the ball is determinant.”

“At times we found good shooting positions, good pace of play following the game plan, but as I told you, we have not managed to change the dynamic despite the rotations, despite the defensive changes or despite the tactics. We will try to learn from this game and fight to stay in the top positions, which is where we want to be in the Euroleague in our group”.
