Manolo Hussein: "It's an opportunity to begin to reap victories" (17/10/2008)

Manolo, with the ViveMenorca must win or yes ...

Well, it's what's on our mind at this time.

We know it is an important opportunity to start scoring to begin to reap victories ... we think that Menorca is a team that is in our line of targets.

Therefore, I think it's an important match and the victory would also be very important to us.

So I think there's nothing else on our minds other than to add in this game.

How does the team physically and emotionally?

Well, we are physically impaired.

There are players who have struggled throughout the week and good, are situations that are only going to be changing in a process of 'X' time, the time that these players are slow to recover.

It is true that Ivan (Opacak) and is training with us, but still now and throughout the week also Taquan (Dean) and Lamont (Barnes) have been too low a few days due to physical problems.

Were added to training on Wednesday.

So now drag not just disappear because the competition can not give you much more room to rest.

Then there are physical problems, but we must try to obviate, because Sunday's game face, no place to such excuses.

You have to play under the conditions that we and most of all do your best.

And emotionally I think the team is good, we would be better if instead of 0-3, take her 3-0, we would be elated, but the situation is what it is, which set a little on the circumstances, the results ... and I think it is too early to party away emotionally.

I think the team knows it has been a series of setbacks that have contributed to that we are not good.

We have enough sense to know that we have not done well in many times and what is perhaps now is a desire to rectify.

I think there is no better opportunity to prove it the next day here against Menorca.

Is there still looking for the replacement of Jesse Young?

Well, we are looking for a player who can come temporarily because once it was confirmed that lower Jesse (Young) may be about for about six weeks, it is clear that we need someone to help us in games and on the day day.

We are a bit short and when we have problems like we had this week that we are missing two or three players, it is very difficult to train.

It is very difficult to have enough players for a training pace that allows you to get in conditions conducive to compete.

So, clearly we're looking for right now a player to help us in that position and hopefully soon you can realize in a few days, the addition of this player.

What can you tell us the rival ViveMenorca?

Well, it's a computer that maintains a solid base of previous seasons.

Players like Bazdaric, Stojic, Ivanov, Jesus Fernandez ... or have a solid base to which players have been adding quite interesting, as the case of Jeter, which is the base, is a player who now is playing pretty good level.

They really have played three good games, all three have lost very little, especially the two at home against TAU and Joventut, and after going for a long time on the scoreboard above.

So I think they're doing a good basketball, but sometimes you have to follow a bit of luck in the moments of the game and compete against the teams they have competed complicated.

You must be over forty minutes in a very effective line performance.

I think that is in line with other years.

It is a team that in principle should be in our league and I believe that the pattern of difference between them will be a little on the defensive level.

They are also trying to work a team defensively with great discretion.

Leadership at the track is quite clear who are the players that boast about scoring and we what we try is to step up our defensive level, which is what perhaps worse today are doing on the track .

What we are doing worse perhaps is the little things: we are defending bad, bad rebounding, giving too many easy baskets in transition, counter ... Then the game between two teams and you can set a bit for this.

It is clear that there will be nerves because it is a game we all know can be very important, especially when you play at home and come from 0-3, but this is a bit of our daily bread.

Is what you get when the situation is like going at the moment for both teams.

What worries you most in your computer now?

The worst are the results, because when you go 0-3, the worst are the results forever.

But it is clear that-I mentioned before the competition and has been well-these two weeks that we, who also has given us much time to work because it is out of a game and get into another game, and I said that I liked the team's defensive level.

I do not think we were defending like we are supposed to do, mainly because too many options give the other team easy baskets.

Such talk that we're not being very consistent in our defensive rebound, rebound us easy in our basket with all that that implies, we receive too many points on the counterattack, our defensive balance at times not being good enough, our defense general not being aggressive and strong in the line of 6.25 that I would like.

So for me this is the greatest progress we have to do and what we've been working all week, trying to take a step forward.

We know that playing games to 75 points, our chances of winning increase, but if games are to 90 points ... that is, we can not be every fourth fitting 23, 24 or 25 points because it is clear that there the opponents to we're playing are able to maintain that average, but not us.

So you have to think that if we can not do that kind of basketball to exchange baskets with the opposing team, the only way you can do is close your defense a bit and not allow such high scores.

I think the team today, apparently seen, has understood that message.

So this is what we've been working all week.
