Whether the negative result with Olympiacos will affect the “clover”: “I don’t think it was a negative result, after losing 4 points in the last shot. There will be the second round at the OAKA, we have no problem. “
On whether to open the rotation with rival Villerban: “We need wins. Rotesion is the second part of our work. The rotation for me is not important in a single game. But it will be important in the season. Centric Nan had a problem in the derby on Sunday and what Jay Shorts played with more responsibilities. We have a big season, with a lot of games. I don’t think of using 12 players in every match. The most important thing is to win. Anyone who better uses his minutes on the parquet will stay in the match. “
