Scariolo: “Against Paris Basketball we have to attack with plenty of balance”
"We have to control the defensive rebounding because that will probably be the main thing," the coach said.
Sergio Scariolo was interviewed by Realmadrid TV the day before the EuroLeague game against Paris Basketball (Tuesday, 8:45pm CET): "First of all, we have to attack with plenty of balance, move the ball well, lose few turnovers, be balanced in the shots to be able to have each player in the defensive transition and be very serious in attack. From there comes balance in defensive transition, which is the first issue. Then, we have to remember that we are the best offensive rebounding team. We have to control the defensive rebounding because it will probably be the main factor in the whole game."
"We have a game against a team that plays in a very special way. They are not the only ones who play like that anymore, but we know that against these opponents, we have to be very smart in the way we play. As has happened to us on other occasions, we can concede very high scores, but we can also give them back. The main characteristic of our opponents is their pace. They are by far the EuroLeague team that plays the most possessions. This will lead to a very high score."
