Vsevolod Ishchenko: "We need to use every opportunity to improve teamwork"

The Lokomotiv Kuban guard answered journalists' questions after the intra-season loss to CSKA (89:93).

The game wasn't of major tournament significance, but it happened to be very tense. What did your team look for motivation in?: Despite our standings in the intra-season cup, this game was still very important for us. The VTB United League playoffs are just around the corner, and we need to take advantage of every opportunity to improve teamwork—especially against such an opponent. We really wanted to win, but unfortunately we fell just short.
What can you say about your personal performance?: Definitely not my best game in terms of concentration. I picked up 3 stupid fouls very quickly, and that was basically the end of my defensive aggression. I've tried to balance aggression with caution since then, but that's a different story.
