However, the team’s coach, Martin Schiller, who spoke after the game, was happy with the season.
“I congratulate the Munich team on entering the playoffs. This is a historic moment for all of German basketball. The first team to play the Euroleague playoffs. I think it is impressive for the basketball culture of this country.
Of course, I am disappointed because we lost. I’m glad I fought, that’s a characteristic of all of us this season. Anyway, I have nothing to complain about, but if I had to highlight something, we made up to 19 mistakes. Brilliant too.
It is difficult to score points when there are so many mistakes. However, we had a good chance of winning the match. Still, that basketball.
In short, it has been a good season in the Euroleague, although there is still a second leg with Panathinaikos from Athens.
We were very close to getting into the Top 8, it is difficult to speak of a good season after such a loss, after a failure against Maccabi Tel Aviv, which prevented any real opportunities to move forward.
We had big injuries, there was everything, but we cannot justify it, “said M. Schiller, 39, at the press conference.
Žalgiris only had one game left in the Euroleague until the end of the season. Next week, Kaunas residents will receive the Athens Panathinaikos at home.
