Kaunas Žalgiris landed at Real Madrid 58:70, and head coach Martin Schiller admitted after a failure that his students could not find their way to the real club’s basket during all matches.
“Congratulations to Real, they deserve to win,” began Schiller about the match. – I was satisfied with our defense efforts, we did a good job. Even before the game, the challenge was clear: how do we score points? Real are an especially good defensive team with great height. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find a way to score points during every game, so Real deserved the victory. “
– Why did you decide to leave Rubit among the initial five?
– Then we can create releases from Pikenpopo situations and, of course, take Tavares out of the penalty area. We did the same before Kuzmičiai on Tuesday.
– First half of Pikenpopo situations where you threw three but none for the rest of the game. Did you decide to quit?
– No, but the game is not a computer game. If it was a computer game, then everything would be easy. Just peace pikenpopą against a tall midfielder and mint pitches. Actually, throws need to be hit, followed by confidence and pace.
Still, it’s not just about pitching, you also need to create an advantage. Not everything is so easy, and if it were, you could get the job done.
– What problem did Real’s perimeter defense have?
– Frankly, I think his defense in the penalty area has done more damage. We don’t shoot a lot of 3s even under normal conditions, and without Milaknis this number won’t go up. We shot 12 3-pointers compared to Real’s 29.
It’s not complicated math – if you hit 12 triples, that’s part of it. Collecting points against Real is a serious challenge and Milaknis missed 20 minutes.
Not because he throws 3s, but it helps expand the field. However, there are no excuses for this and we will have to find a way out.
– Deck scored 9 triples all season, today he scored four. How unexpected was that?
– It was a big X factor. Already in the first half, when he hit two 3-pointers, we noticed that he did it. And it wasn’t a situation where he was left completely unattended, but when he does, he has a huge impact on the match.
– “Žalgiris” was broken 6 times in the first half. Didn’t you miss more fouls?
– I think so, there was a lack of misconduct. There were 2-3 situations where we had to commit a foul to stop their attacks. We improved this in the second part, but it was missing. That was pretty much the only thing we talked about from the defensive end during the long break.
