After the match, Kaunas helmsman Martin Schiller congratulated the opponents with a good match and acknowledged the difficulties of the students in defense.
“First of all, congratulations to Juventus for the victory. I think that in the first part of the game we had problems on the perimeter on our side of the court and we controlled it better after the break. In the second half of the match, the rivals played very good on the mustache, from which they made a lot of 3s, threw the balls and played a solid game, ”Schiller said after the game.
Schiller gave the club’s young basketball players plenty of playing time: Karolis Lukošiūnas played 20 minutes, Paulius Murauskas – 9, Mantas Rubštavičius – 7.
“It is very important for us to allocate time, because we have already played match 37 this season, so we want to keep the bodies of the players fresh for the next fights,” explained the Austrian in his decision.
Vaidas Kariniauskas, who scored 18 points, caused a lot of trouble for the Žalgiris people, and for a while he was supervised by Lukas Lekavičius, who was almost 20 centimeters shorter.
Schiller, when asked if Lekavičius’s defense against Kariniauskas was not a tactical error, maintained his opinion and thought it was a good decision.
