Perasovic: “We made mistakes every time we got close...”

Defeated on the road by Olympiacos 90-66 at the second week of Turkish Airlines Euroleague, Anadolu Efes coach Velimir Perasovic stated his thoughts at the post-game press conference:

“I would like to congratulate Olympiacos. With their game on the court, they deserved the win from the very first moment. Especially in the first half, we failed to react to their energy.

When we tried a comeback and brought the margin down to 6 or 8 points, we made very simple mistakes and allowed Olympiacos to increase the lead. We let go of the game within the final 5 minutes of the match, which is unacceptable for us. Our shooting was particularly bad, and we only had 2 steals, which shows our lack of aggression...”
