Postgame Comments – Jan Vesely and Nando De Colo

Jan Vesely: I try to help the team in the best way possible. In the late plays, they came to trap me and I had two guys outside alone, so I'm not going to go for the basket; I'm going to pass it outside. On defense, it's my seventh year here and I always do these things. I'm happy for the team. Finally, we played team basketball, not for 40 minutes but at least most of the time. After losing by so many points, we realized that we had to be more focused, play like a team, and don't quit. We didn't quit today even though they came close. We came back and got the victory.
 
Nando De Colo: We tried to make things a bit easier in our game. The last months it was really difficult for us, but we tried to keep working every day to get better. We tried to play together. I just try to help the team. We knew they had big men who go to the offensive rebounds, so we had to box them out and the guards needed to come and help. It's great to have Marko [Guduric] on the team; he's a great player who understands the team. It doesn't feel like he came last week; it feels like he was here from the beginning of the season. Now, we just need to keep working together.
