Kaunas “Žalgiris” gained momentum in the Euroleague: the third victory in a row was achieved even by 99:62 by crushing “Fenerbahche” from Istanbul.
The opponents were already unmotivated in the first half, which Žalgiris’ team won even 24: 7. The Turkish club did not recline and the Lithuanian club again shot more than half of the 3-point range: 16/30 (53 percent of precision).
This match also became a record for the Žalgiris strategist Martinui Schilleriui, making it the biggest win in the Euroleague.
After the game, the specialist highlighted good shots from Austria and a defense that continues to improve.
“The first part in defense was very good for us. We kept winning the second half, although we defended worse, it was very important. It was very important for us at the beginning of the third quarter, where we did well again. I can congratulate the guys on a good victory and for sharing the ball ”, said the strategist.
– The ball in attack moved perfectly, how did you prepare this component for training before the season?
– The most important thing for us is to create advantages and send the ball to those spaces. We have some guys who play a great game and can create those spaces. That’s our approach, but easier said than done.
– What creates a fantastic success rate?
– I think there are many things. We hit well, but we pitch less often than most teams. I would like us to attack even more often, but the quality of the shots would not suffer. The coaching staff has worked a lot on the individual development of the players, they do a lot of analysis themselves, I just have to thank them for that.
– Where is the potential to shoot even more 3s?
– I don’t want to highlight Agustín Rubit, he has attacked a lot from middle distance throughout his career, I don’t want to force him to take a step further back. I want more shots to be made on fast attacks, hard edges so that I can attack more, Nigel Hayes and Paulius Jankūnas, they should not hesitate to be free.
– Has the team’s defense improved significantly, not exceeding 70 points on average in the winning series?
– First of all, attention should be paid to the work carried out by children in training. Nigel’s move to “third position” also helped us a lot.
– What is the impression of Fenerbahche, who suffered the biggest defeat in the history of Žalgiris?
– It’s hard to say they powerfully beat Zenit a few weeks ago. Other passages from them should not be forgotten. I have no doubt that they will still recover and improve the game.
