MILOJEVIC: “WE ARE DECIMATED BUT WE WILL NOT SURRENDER”
Players of Mega Leks celebrated in the match against Metalac but despite victoriy before the playoffs of the ABA league, remained bitter taste after a serious injury of Jaramaz.
Playmaker of Mega Leks Nikola Ivanovic said that Mega games are not at an adequate level:
“It’s nice to finish league part of competition with a nice win, but this games in the last two rounds are not at an adequate level, at the level of the games that we’ve had all season. The semifinals will certainly not be good, if we play like this. However, we have a whole week to get ready, to forget everything bad that has happened and think only about the Buducnost and to correct all that“, said Ivanovic.
Mega coach Dejan Milojevic said that after a new injury, Mega is in a difficult situation before the play-off:
“Beside win, a lot of things are not what they have to be. I greatly respect what coach Djokic does with Metalac , and beside that win nothing worked in this game. More Jaramaz injury, which according to first prognosis is not easy, is an additional problem for us. After Aranitovic and Kaba were injured and a third bearer of our game will not be on the court. We are practically decimated before the play-offs and we will be extremely difficult to seriously confront the very quality team Buducnost”, Milojevic said and continued:
“However, the team has shown that they do not surrender and give their best, I hope that it will be in the semifinals of the playoffs. Winning the Cup relaxed us too much and just out of lack of concentration, these injuries occur. We must as soon as possible to forget that we won Cup, to descend to the ground and continue to play as before “
concluded the coach of Mega Leks.
