Michelakos: “We don't say big words, we remain humble”
Korivos Amaliada won 88-59 Pan-Estraikos as part of its 22nd race Elite League And the coach of the winners, Michalis Michelakos, spoke on the show “Listen to what you did” Eok Webradio With Gregory Papavassiliou and Dimitris Melissis.
He said in detail:
For the victory over Pan -Erythra: “It's not just a 'double' victory because we have covered a difference, I can say more reasons. We were coming from two harsh home defeats, in which we could get away with better results. It was a key match for us for the sequel and my players followed the shot faithfully for 40 minutes and so we managed to get a very important victory. “
As to whether this victory changes something for the sequel: “My logic and my philosophy is that we have to be humble. We have a very young roster, with an average of 21 years. It is very important not to say big words. The Elite League is a championship you should not talk about, as it is the most competitive in the country. It is important to keep the bar low. We want to fight every week, that was the goal from the beginning. We are a team with 15 new faces and even now we are building our chemistry and logic. We seem to be consistent. Eating the appetite opens. We want to continue to be competitive, to fight and what he “writes” in the end will be what we deserve. “
For how easy it was to rebuild after the two consecutive defeats: “I think there was no reorganization issue. In both games our image was quite consistent, we lost in the details of two very good teams, which have a very good momentum. Our week came into its normal routine, we analyzed our mistakes, what we want to improve, to “remember” what we are doing well in the parquet, and this was evident on Saturday (15/02). Separate from a very good harvest we had, we lowered the Paneryraikos very low to 59 points. This shows our quality in the defense, as we are the best defense of the league and we want to continue to be there. “
For the upcoming (22/02) away game with Psychiko: “We're talking about a very experienced team, with a very good coach, George Remedela. We have often found opponents in previous years and I know its philosophy and the general logic of Psychiko. It's a team with very experienced players, very good strangers and that's why it's so high in the standings. We will start our work, try to “build” our process and our plan. It's a very difficult away game. It will show how ready we are in this logic. We will try, as we do every week, to be competitive and, from now on, show. “
As to whether the winner of this match acquires a very big advantage for the four: “I can't say if it takes a very big lead. It is better to stay humble. It is true that you take a lead, but there are 7 games after this match in front of us and everything is very difficult, everyone has something to “chase”. This is how the format is formed, which until the last race everyone is looking for. It is very important to keep your head low, not to say so much and your job looks on the pitch. “
