MILOJEVIC: “SIMPLY, THEY WERE BETTER”

Basketball players of Mega Bemax failed to celebrate in front of the full hall of the PSC Pinki in Sremska Mitrovica, since in the derby of the 8th round of the ABA League Partizan was better with 89:102.

One of the best players in the ranks of Mega was Goga Bitadze with 19 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks in just 20 minutes. The young center of Mega, due to five personal fouls, had to get out of the game at the beginning of the last period, at a press conference after the match, he pointed out that Partizan punished an inadequate aggressive defense of Mega:

– We were not aggressive enough in defense. They punished it with open shots, and after a fifteen-point minus we could not get back to the match,

Bitadze said.

Coach of Mega Bemax Dejan Milojevic pointed out that today Partizan was simply better:

– I congratulate Partizan on a well deserved victory. Simply, they were better. We played a bad match, defensively we were very weak, and when it comes to the attack, at one point we had only 15% of the realization  for three points. This is the reason for our defeat. We had a couple of situations in which we might were able to reduce the minus and return to the match, but the ball did not want to go to the basket. Partizan punished  it and deservedly won,

Milojevic said.
