Vlada Jovanovic, Buducnost: 'Bell-Haynes played a great game at both ends.'
Buducnost VOLI Podgorica head coach Vlada Jovanovic:
"In the first half, we had a lot of opportunities to make easy shots and we missed all of them. We are under some kind of pressure when we play at home, it’s obvious. In the second half, I expected their reaction and it we got it because they played much better defense. In the third quarter, they pushed us away from the basket and we played 10 meters away from the basket, that was the main problem. We found some open shots but the most important thing was the defense.
"An important game for us. After the last round, I expected a reaction from my team and they showed it. First of all, I talk all the time about our defensive approach, as it’s so important to play good defense. In the first half, we played perfect defense but at the other end of the court, we missed easy shots. My players feel some kind of pressure. They play with a soul, they play with huge energy, but sometimes they have a bad game. I have to use this opportunity to defend them. The first half was a real picture of that observation. In the second half, it was a totally different picture. First of all, [London] tried and succeeded in being much tougher and we couldn’t find easy shots. We were forced to play 10 meters from the basket and we had to find another way, with one point guard who played 33 minutes. That’s too much, [Bell-Haynes] played a great game at both ends and we found a way to win. I really want to use this opportunity to congratulate my players, they’ve been very good the last two games in my opinion. I wish, if possible, we could stay on the same track in the upcoming period."
London Lions head coach Ryan Schmidt:
“A tough loss for us. They were really good, that’s a good team. We knew that coming here after playing them the last time, playing them on the road was always going to be tough, but it’s frustrating. We made a lot of little mistakes while they were being constant. We had 12 turnovers in the first half, they scored 16 points off that, the margin was 11 at halftime. They had 17 offensive rebounds and we missed 11 free throws, you can’t do things like that and expect to win a game like this. We’ve got a lot to clean up, it starts with me. I’ve got to do a better job with the details, until we get this stuff better the results are still going to be the same against better teams in this competition."
Buducnost VOLI Podgorica guard Trae Bell-Haynes:
"We gained some momentum in the second half of the season, we had a big win at Cedevita this weekend [in the ABA League] and to build on that is good for us and good for our confidence."
