The Betsafe-LKL Championship does not stop: the tournament continues and four more matches will be played over the weekend.
Probably the most interesting match will take place on Saturday in Pasvalys – here the local “Milk Stars” will receive Vilnius “Tomorrow” in their arena.
The broadcast of the match will be available for viewing live from 5 pm on the BTV channel and through LKL.lt.
This will be the second meeting of these teams of the season – the first, which took place in September, the hosts won in Vilnius without much trouble – 106: 82.
True, compared to that match, the Vilnius team will be a little different this time: the player left Demetrius Jackson, the injury is being treated by Arnas Butkevičius, whose participation in the match is in doubt, and newcomer Maurice Ndouras has only had one team. exercise routine.
However, the capital’s team finally received good news: Martynas Echodas, who had gone a while without basketball and should already participate in Saturday’s game, finally returned to the classification.
As Mindaugas Girdžiūnas, the Vilnius team defender, told LKL.lt, these constant changes in team composition undoubtedly cause an additional headache for the team’s coaching staff.
“Of course, maybe it knocks out a little bit, but not so much the players as the coaches, it is difficult to prepare for the game and plan something. This is probably the biggest burden for the coaches and probably the most painful for them due to all these changes ”, considered the basketball player.
Such constant changes and the lack of a full line-up are often reflected in the square: the capital club has recently stumbled three times in a row in all tournaments.
However, Mindaugas Girdžiūnas claims that he does not survive long and understands that there are objective reasons for this.
“I really wouldn’t want to call it a hole or something like that, there were very important reasons why it was more difficult to play and so on. Everyone knows what those reasons are, both player exits and injuries. We won’t panic and we will try to return to the path of victories ”, considered the interlocutor.
Paulius Petrilevičius, the tall man from “Pieno Žvaigzdžiai”, also spoke about the fact that the waves of the “Rytas” team should not calm down.
“I personally do not look at it, they are in the pits or not, we just have to fight in a good mood and that’s it, it’s still a good team,” the midfielder praised the opponents.
In the meantime, Pasvalys’ own basketball players will come into this match in a positive mood: in the last round, they defeated the Prienai CBet team, which started the season in a positive way, mainly due to the impressive first half contested. According to P. Petrilevičius, such a victory added additional confidence to the team.
“The victory was really important, because each defeat returns a blow through confidence, and now it is really better, and during training everyone works harder, it really gave many positive things,” the basketball player did not hide when communicating with LKL.lt.
M. Girdžiūnas also spoke about the rising form of the Pasvalys team.
“We have all seen that in the last game they were a very good attacking team, shooting a lot of 3-pointers, so they are very dangerous, especially at home, but our only goal is victory and I hope we will achieve it,” said M. Girdžiūnas .
M. Girdžiūnas himself often shares the offensive defense position this year with Andrew Goudelock, a newcomer to the team who has established many years of experience in the Euroleague.
When asked if, being an experienced player, he can still learn something new from such a basketball player, M. Girdžiūnas did not hesitate.
“Of course, I always try to get everything I can from each player, I really have a good opportunity to play against good class players and during training I am very happy.
Of course, it is not easy for me during training against Andrew (laughs – LKL.lt), but we really support each other and I think that everything will be fine in the game too, ”the basketball player told LKL.lt.
One of the main tasks of Vilnius residents will be to stop P. Petrilevičius, who is currently one of the most useful players on the team and the smith of victories.
But the midfielder himself, who is playing for the team for the second season, does not value his contribution too much and only assures him that he will do what the coaches demand.
“I don’t care if I started very well or not, it’s just the tasks that I do in our team and so on, I do what the coach says. And I don’t follow any good results, the most important thing is victory and everything.
In the second year maybe everything is a little easier, you know what the coach wants, what he likes and what he doesn’t, but maybe the coaches should be asked where I am more ‘added’, I feel more stable, safer, ” he said. player.
Still, Betsafe experts consider Rytas basketball players to be match favorites – they have a nearly 80 percent chance of winning.
