The Lokomotiv Kuban guard answered journalists’ questions after the game against Zenit (80:82, the score in the best-of-5 series was 0-1).
- What can you say about the result?
- From the very first minutes, we couldn't match our opponent's toughness; we let them find their rhythm, and then we were playing catch-up the entire game. In the 3rd quarter, we began playing tougher defense, moving faster, and most importantly, winning our own shield. Thanks to this, we were able to return from "–17" to "–2". But we missed our shots at key moments and lost. So, we'll prepare for the next game to be better.
- Was it difficult to enter the game in the 4th quarter when the team is losing by a big margin?
- I always try to enter the game with a most fighting spirit possible, go out there and try to help the team in any way I can.
