Pedro Martínez: "We need to prepare very well because it’s going to be a high-rhythm game"
"Asvel is a team that plays fast and has some very dangerous players," explained the coach in the pre-match press conference (Thursday, 9:00 pm CEST; #Vamos).
Pedro Martínez spoke to Realmadrid TV the day before the match against Asvel Villeurbanne in the sixth round of the EuroLeague, which will take place at the Movistar Arena (Thursday, 9:00 pm CEST; #Vamos). The coach said: “We need to prepare very well, especially mentally, because physically you won’t be at your best. They also played yesterday, so it evens things out a bit. We have to be ready to face the game and execute the tactical plans well. That is absolutely crucial because there isn’t room to adjust anything.”
Opponent
“Asvel is a team that plays very fast, takes a lot of three-point shots, and has some very dangerous players. The most well-known and important is Patty Mills, who is scoring 20 or 25 points in games with very few minutes on the court.”
What kind of game do you expect?
“I think it will be a high-scoring game with a lot of rhythm because we will also want to play that way. They are a very dangerous team, especially if we don’t defend the three-point line well.”
