MILOJEVIC: “WE RESISTED AS MUCH AS WE COULD”

Players of Mega Leks within the first semifinals match of playoffs lost in the hall “Aleksandar Nikolic” from Crvena zvezda mts with 85:70.

In the last quarter chance to play got Ognjen Carapic who with several drives and assists announced good games next season. At a press conference after the match Carapic pointed out that the team turns to the second game:

– We did not comply with what we have agreed on training. They played very well in defense, we did not. From some counterattack they gave us a lot of easy points. In the second quarter they have acquired some ten points difference, which they held it and eventually deservedly celebrated. We turn to the second game and we will do our best to make it better,

said Carapic.

Coach of Mega Leks Dejan Milojevic pointed out that the team offered resistance as much as they could:

– I congratulate the team Crvena zvezda on the deserved win. We played tonight as much as Zvezda allowed us. In first quarter we played good, after that they made a difference and with some minor fluctuations, they held until the end. We have some objective problems with the roster, with some injuries. Today, the Sava Lesic was injured, Cancar has long been injured. Kaba is in America, it was agreed earlier with the club to prepare for the draft. In this rotation, in which we have, I think we resisted as much we could,

said Milojevic and then on the question of Lesic injury answered:

– He twisted the ankle, certainly will not play for two days. It is not a serious injury so he will not be absent long time, but since the match is in two days, it is not realistic for him to play next game,

said Milojevic.
