Ibon Navarro: “We haven’t done anything special, we play like this against anyone”

Ibon Navarro He appeared at a press conference after Unicaja’s incontestable victory on the UCAM Murcia court (65-88). Despite the result, a lot of work had to be done from the first second because Sito Alonso had a very tough match. However, even with four players who had spent the previous night with feverthe cajista team added its eleventh consecutive victory in the Endesa League.

Match balance

“Congratulate the team for the victory. Obviously, We knew that we were coming to a field where only Valencia had won and the way he had done it in extra time. Very happy because the game was not easy at all, we did very well, solid, but I think there is no doubt that UCAM Murcia in the things in which it is especially good, its energy in rebound and recovery, has not been at its level. level. It can be said that we have done things very well and that they have lacked a bit of energy after Wednesday’s game and the trip.

I also don’t want to detract from the team because we played a very good game. It is true that at the beginning they surprised us with an unusual quintet, it was difficult for us to control the mobility of Rodions and Sleva as interior players. When we have adjusted we have returned to sensations and dominating defensive balance and rebound against UCAM is three quarters of the game“.

Difficulty as a visitor

“The most important thing is the victory. This field, not only because of the quality of the team, but because of the atmosphere, is very complicated. Although I have already done it on a personal and private level, congratulate the club because there is an atmosphere that I did not know because it is one thing about the team that is at a very good level and that they work to breathe basketball. We were winning by 20 and there was an atmosphere like few others.”

Approach

“We have four players who had fever tonight. They are bad. We all had problems, but they have traveled to Turkey and come back like they did… Nor we have done nothing special, we play like this against anyone. You can try to try to play differently in toughness and physicality to play with a team, but if it is not a habit of yours you will not achieve it.”
