Pallacanestro Trieste Faces Crucial Würzburg Clash,Eyes Second Place Finish
Trieste,Italy – Pallacanestro Trieste coach Marco Gonzalez emphasized the importance of their upcoming final regular season match against Würzburg,stating,”We don’t want to settle,we will try to give our best against Würzburg in the last match too. It would be very vital to win by 16 points and secure second place.”
The team recently benefited from a short break, which Gonzalez deemed “appropriate because it allowed us to recharge our batteries and helped those who had some minor ailments to recover. Starting again like this, now, will be easier.”
Looking ahead,Gonzalez outlined the team’s immediate training focus: “These first days of training will certainly help us refine small details of the individual offensive and defensive technique,which will help us improve as a team. Then we will have to find our competitive rhythm again and, in the last few days, prepare as best we can for the match against Sassari.”
The availability of Jeff Brooks and Colbey Ross remains uncertain. Gonzalez noted they will be monitored “day by day, seeing how they improve, as always we don’t want to force it,” adding, ”It is clear that I hope they return as soon as possible.”
Gonzalez also shared his viewpoint on the NBA’s expanding presence in Europe,believing it “will be very positive,realizing a project for the growth and sustainability of European basketball.” He highlighted the NBA’s experience in growing the sport globally and their planned collaboration with FIBA,which he believes will be crucial for understanding the nuances of European basketball.
