R. Kurtinaitis himself stopped, looking at the party protocol. Although he had a good game 48:39 at Žalgiris Stadium until the break, he lost by knockout 13:39 in the third quarter.
Chimki lowered her arms and stopped resisting. R. Kurtinaitis tried to revive the team with a minute rest, but there was no reaction from the guests on the field.
After the match with “Žalgiris”, Rimas Kurtinaitis rushed back home, so the Chimkai club allowed the coach to ask only three questions.
Before that, the 60-year-old specialist gave an introductory speech in English.
“Kaunas” Žalgiris “is playing well. Lately they have been competing with confidence, joy. They enjoy this game. And we have problems. We looked good in the first half, but the third was tragic, especially because of the energy, the character. That was the point, “summarized R. Kurtinaitis.
Chimki’s coach did not look up at the press conference.
– This is not the first time this season that it has collapsed in the third quarter. Why does a team break down when it starts to fail and you still hope to save this situation?
– Of course I hope so. We are trying to do that. There were several good games, but also many, when the team was struggling. Lack of trust.
After so many series of defeats, the players separate and it is not just our team. We are the ones who lack confidence and character. It is no longer the first game in which we look good before the break, but we started the third quarter without success. And I have not had such a result as today.
– Isn’t it difficult to get to a team and find a connection with such a series of defeats?
– Yes it’s hard. But we played a good game. Maybe we lost five games in the last minute. It gives hope that we are on the subject.
But there are games like today where the team is completely out of control. In four minutes, I took two minute breaks that didn’t change anything in the third quarter.
– How you feel? Don’t you want to throw it all away and go fishing quietly?
– I do my job. We train well. Everything is happening. The easiest way to throw everything away and go fishing. But I’m not looking for easy paths.
