UCAM Murcia vs. Valencia Basket post-game quotes: Pedro Martínez

15/12/2024

"I think we were very good on offense throughout the game, even though Murcia's defense, as we expected, is a team that makes a lot of defensive changes, with defenses that work very well and are difficult to attack. At some points, we got stuck against those defensive changes and special defenses that we're not used to playing against, and they execute them so well because they're so familiar with them. There were moments when we got stuck, but overall, we had a good offensive game, with a good pace, and a lot of determination, especially in three-point shooting. Defensively, not as well, but we also have to acknowledge that Murcia's perimeter players are very vertical, very quick, driving to the basket, and very hard to defend. We should be happy because winning against this team on their court is very rewarding. They were last season's finalists, playing incredible basketball, and surprising everyone with how well they played. And they have almost the same team, so we must give them the utmost respect, and we are happy to have come away with the victory"
