The Loko forward analysed the reasons of loss in the game against Zenit (71:77).
- How often do you have games on your birthday, like today?
- This is far from the first time in my career. For me, playing on my birthday is quite usual. Today, it was very nice that the fans congratulated me. When we went out to warm up, the guys slowed down a bit, letting me go out onto the court first. It was great, what can I say!
- What wasn't enough to celebrate your birthday with a victory?
- We allowed our opponent too much, gave them freedom under our basket. With a team like Zenit, which attacks well from any distance, this is absolutely impossible. We also did not score a lot of good shots.
- How's your mood now?
- Of course, it's sad to let a victory slip away like that. But that's basketball, everything can change at any second. Yes, we lost. But we'll find out how not to let that happen again. Now we need to get ready for the next game as quickly as possible, because we play frequently. PARMA is a good, athletic team. So we need to show our basketball, then the result will be okay.
