MILOJEVIC: “IT’S POSITIVE THAT THE TEAM DIDN’T GIVE UP”

Mega Bemax players have played a very interesting match, but despite coming from minus 22 to just a point behind, they eventually lost to Cedevita with 99:96 within the semi-finals of ABA Super Cup 2017 which is played in Bar.

An excellent game for Mega was provided by Aleksandar Lazic with 16 points and 13 rebounds, and at the press conference after the match he pointed out the defense of the team in the last quarter:

– I would congratulate Cedevita on winning. It was a very good game, with a lot of reversals. We played well in defense in the last quarter and with such a defense we can win against every team in the league,

Lazic pointed out.

Coach of Mega Bemax Dejan Milojevic said that it was very positive that the team did not give up when they were losing to 22 points:

– We showed two faces, well at the beginning, but we stopped playing the defense and to be aggressive. It is very positive that the team did not give up. When we play as we want, we can win everyone. Cedevita is among the three or four best teams in the league, and we had our chance. This team is growing and I hope that we will make a remarkable result. The teams are equal, everyone can win and there will be a lot of surprises in the ABA league,

Milojevic said.
