Miloš, what happened? I just saw the results and I'm shocked.
Unfortunately, it is more and more obvious what I noticed against
as well that one of the huge problems is that the form was not tempted right, as we played the best match against
and we were nailing in the preparations, but now with each new match we are worse and worse.......not just individually looking but as a team too
Almost everyone look confused, they can't hit anything, they make silly mistakes, there is no aggression in the defense at all, we let their best shooters to score without any pressure, we don't control the rebounds, we stand on the out line when we get the ball and then lose it as a result of that.............and that lack of desire is another thing that is bugging me as it looks like the chemistry in the team doesn't exist anymore. There is no team play anymore, the main premise is that everyone play on Krstic in the end, even when he is surrounded with 2-3 players. The ball goes around and ends up in his hands, no matter what, and the reserve solution is some shot from the distance and if it gets in, great, if not...........of course, in many situations only 1 player follow the endings of those attacks and we can't have a stable offensive rebound as a result of that, nor those "points from the voleyball".
Yet another terrible match for
in every aspect, we managed to stay undefeated against
but not today.
controlled the match in all 40 minutes. We sold too many attacks, the defense was not functioning at all, we just couldn't hit anything and also missed a huge, huge number of free throws (yet another showing that the form is falling). If only we hit more of those free throws we would've got a better result (irony), but we didn't.
We managed to stop Kravtsov from their team as well as Mishula who had only 6 points in the end, but some players that score 4 points on average have now scored 20+ . Their playmaker Jeter literally urinated on us in this match. I think he didn't miss any single shot for 3 points, each and every one of them got in. Especially in the end.
There are many things that I am not satisfied with, but I will still keep my mouth shut, as we are still in the game, but I will analyze some things after our participation ends and say it out loud. The only thing I can say is that some players should be embarrassed not because their performances are embarrassment for professional basketball (although I personally would be ashamed definetly), but because they don't sweat that jersey at all, and that is the worst in the whole story. I can understand and tolerate a bad period but NEVER when someone doesn't care and when he doesn't fight on the field. We must now find a way to stand up against
but it will be difficult. There is no need to calculate who would be the best opponent in 1/4 finals as with this play we we will not beat anyone, whoever comes from the F group. We should only think about us and our play as there are a lot of things to be analyzed.
As for Ivkovic's cursing.........that is nothing compared to what I was telling during the whole match
