18/12/2021

Coach Rubén Burgos said after the game that "we had a terrible second quarter. I am not surprised by the 29 points because Lugo has part of the merit, but we were not really defending well in the first quarter. We were good on offense, we were 5 up, but their two-point shooting percentage I think was 80% at the end of the first quarter and they not only kept it, but they increased it in the second quarter because of our bad defenses, for not pressing the ball, for not having good positions and for not having the hand activity that we usually have. I think then they took a step forward, stole balls and found three-point shots in transition. In that partial they took us out of the court. At halftime the message was nothing new, it was the same as the beginning of the game. I think the players got into the rhythm of the game, I don't know why we didn't have that rhythm in the second quarter, but we were the team we wanted to be. The number of 24 assists says a lot about our team as a whole".


Laura Gil commented that "I think we have to value the work of the team. We started the first half a little sluggish, especially defensively, which in the end is our hallmark. Then in the second half we started better and that made us like us in attack, spread the game more and find the advantages".
