Valencia Basket- Unicaja pre-game quotes: Pedro Martínez

Valencia Basket’s head coach, Pedro Martínez, spoke to the media after Friday morning’s training session in anticipation of their upcoming game against Unicaja (Sunday 13th, 6:30 PM, Fonteta, #Vamos). He emphasized that the team is fully focused on what lies ahead:

 “We need to turn the page on what’s happened. We’re no longer talking about Hapoel or Murcia, which was the last game we lost at home. Our focus is entirely on Sunday’s game — trying to play our best basketball, trying to make the opponent uncomfortable with their strengths, and trying to highlight their small weaknesses, which every team has. At the same time, we aim to hide our own weaknesses, which we also have like any other team, and to play with confidence, knowing that we’re up against a very good team. I think that’s the mindset we need to have — knowing that Unicaja is having a great season and are almost always considered favorites. We need to be up to the challenge and, taking advantage of playing at home in front of our fans, feel not only the responsibility to perform well, but also the confidence that if we play well, we can win.”
