“We made a great defense, our coach told us that if we wanted to win it was through the defense and we succeeded. Joy has done a great job, we've all done it and that's why we achieved victory” said Meiya Tirera. Rubén Burgos analyzed the game in the same way. “We have taken another step in defense, lowering their score, and being more intense on his point guard. Both our exteriors and especially our big players, worked very well the pass lines, we collapsed them and forced them to make forced shots, merit of our defense. That gave us energy to run. We wanted a high rythm, but not crazy, because it was the danger of today, and we did it well. We found good shots in many players and it gave us confidence to open the gap soon and have good feelings from the first quarter. After the break the defense kept us in. In the end the eliminatory round wasn't in danger, we were able to rotate more and prepare for what is coming. We can celebrate, people deserve to enjoy, but thinking about Gernika” he said.
