Sasho Gruev: We don′t want to come back for another game in Belgrade

Aleksandar Gruev, the captain of BC Rilski Sportist shared his thoughts for bgbasket.com: "It was a nervous game, we played strong in the begining and we quickly got a big lead. They were nervous, as also they look tired from their game against FMP on Sunday, and they needed some time to wake up."   "In the second half I wouldn′t say that we stopped playing, OKK just started more motivated and made their shots, while we missed ours. I′m really happy that we proved that we have character and fought until the end. Five players from our team fouled out, and that′s when we showed that we have team spirit. We will have a harder game next week, and we will try everything possible to win, and not come back to Belgrade for the third game."   The team′s head coach Rosen Barchovski also shared his captain′s opinion that the team showed character. He also added that he doesn′t expect the second game to be easier, as OKK won′t give up.
