On Friday, Darius Maskoliūnas’ students descended on the Estonian Guard in 85:92 combat after the extension.

M. Blaževičius, who started a friendly match in the first five games, played for 13 minutes, scored 4 points, recovered 4 balls, made 2 assists and made the same number of errors.

“The match was great for the debut, I gained a lot of experience.” But we didn’t win, and that’s a shame. However, the most important thing for me is that I can get a lot out of this match in the future ”, the rookie of the national team evaluated the first baptism the next day.

Like his teammates, he struggled to fight under his basket with shorter but determined opponents.

In the attack M. Blaževičius fought better for the rebounds than in the defense (3 and 1, respectively).

“Estonians wanted to earn more, and we didn’t fill in the little details.” Little Estonians took off more bouncing balls, meaning there was very little energy and more fighting was needed. The simplest thing is to push your opponent, “the tall man reminded himself.

M. Blaževičius and the entire Lithuanian team will be able to demonstrate how they learned the lesson they received on Saturday. From 7.30 p.m. At the Saku Suurhall stadium, the Lithuanians will finish their match in the Baltic Way tournament with Latvia.

“A team similar to that of the Estonians is mobile, throws many triples.” The same accents: it will be necessary to open up to the opponents, to concentrate, to carefully familiarize yourself with the material prepared by the scouts about their direct opponents “, – M. Blaževičius was preparing for the match.

The former Vilnius Morning player and coach staff member Robertas Štelmaheris failed to bring Tallinn to Latvia’s brightest stars.

However, even in this Latvian national team there are family names for both M. Blaževičius and Lithuanian basketball fans.

Defender Edgar Lasenberg represents Milk Stars from Pasvalys, and another defender Artūras Ausėjas played there before.

However, the closest to M. Blaževičius is Uvis Helmanis, assistant to R. Štelmaher.

The 48-year-old specialist, who has assisted Dainius Adomaitis at Ryte for the past two seasons, was primarily dedicated to what he knows best: he worked with the club’s tall people.

Blaževičius also spent a lot of time improving his skills with the former Latvian striker.

This summer both roads turned from Vilnius: M. Blaževičius moved to Kaunas “Žalgiris”, U. Helmanis was forced to leave “Rytas” together with D. Adomaitis.

However, M. Blaževičius does not believe it is a farewell.

“We are in constant contact: we call, it corresponds to us. We share impressions of where we are. It still helps me, he advises. I think that here, we did not say goodbye at all, we will continue to communicate,” expected the center forward.
