Nikola Antic: “We had a big slump. My players lose their minds as soon as there is a little more aggression or defensive changes. We also stupidly lose the ball on our possessions… But the key is the offensive rebound. Blois takes 22, it’s huge. I have rarely seen this. Especially since Blois is not a team that usually takes a lot.
