"It is the second game that we played with very good intensity on defense, focused on skills, little details. Then, on offense, we move the ball. We need to keep growing, keep working, stay humble and sacrifice: that's it.
"It is very important win against a very good team. They fight the whole game. I am happy we played a very good game. From our solid defense, we built our ability to run the floor, to find an open shot, to show the talent the team has."
"Congrats to Venice. They deserved this win. They were more physical, more tough. We did not execute our game plan and if this is going to happen when you play against a team like Venice, you will be get beat by 20.
"Defensively we were not at the level that we can compete, and we allowed them a lot of easy baskets, especially inside. Offensively, we could not find a solution, a lot of times we were holding the ball too long and that is why the game out of our hands. We have to learn from that, we need to get better because we expected to show a different face in today's game.
"We've been improving the past two or three weeks. We really focused in on our defense. I think this is where we were struggling the most. We have a lot of frustrating losses by 1 or 2 points, so I think we really locked in on that and it is going to show."
