The yellow coach described Baxi Manresa as “an example” of a team “that plays together”
“What I am clear about is that we are a team that, like everyone else, need to play together and play with the maximum effort. Manresa is an example of this, an example of a squad that manages to form a great team. It is a team with all the letters, which plays together and everyone is capable of adding. It is an example for those of us who want to play that way.
«The group has been in a state of effort and important sacrifice for several games. We had a slump with the arrival of the two new players, it was difficult for us to adapt to the role of defending. I was not well and I was not able to get them into the locker room. Now the group is united again, with clear ideas, and it is one more reason for collective thought.
«Already in the last game Makai Mason gave an example with 14 assists, a historical record in Manresa. In addition, it has danger in the shot. Any loss, for any team, is important but BAXI Manresa is a team where the word ‘team’ is very clear. They have one of the best coaches and they always make up for any mishap. I don’t think they have such a big problem; Let’s not weaken the rival because they don’t have so many casualties.
«BAXI Manresa plays with a lot of rhythm, and everything that involves playing with rhythm involves losing balls that are not very risky. They are counterattack passes to the centers, and they are always protected. They are losses that they commit running and you cannot do much damage. They are one of the best teams in defensive rebound, in assists. We have to be focused on playing good defensive basketball, with very clear ideas.
