JANKOVIC: “EXCELLENT ENERGY BUT BIG PROBLEMS WITH OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS OF ZVEZDA”

Players of Mega Leks have provided excellent resistance to Crvena zvezda after the 5th personal of Zagorac and two technical fouls in a short period for Milojevic, did not have enough strength and concentration to win.

Mega’s center Nikola Jankovic who played a great match with 23 points, at a press conference pointed out great energy to his team:

“I’d congratulate Zvezda to the finals, and we are left fight for third place for the ABA league. We’re well into the game, had a great energy, but the offensive rebounds of Zvezda destroyed us. They had a great desire for offensive jump where we had a problem. Zvezda had many second and third attacks and that prevailed in this match”

Jankovic said

Assistant coach of Mega Leks Srdjan Flajs pointed out that Mega had a lot of problems with offensive rebounding of Crvena zvezda:

“I’d congratulate Zvezda on victory and appearance in the final. The match was as far as our energy was much better than the first one we played in Pionir. But just their rebound was the one who made all the difference. Maybe we were too nervous, we shooted poor free throws. We turn to the battle for third place”,

said Flajs.
