Interview with FC Barcelona Basketball Coach, Sarunas Jasikevicius
Editor: Thank you for joining us today, Coach Jasikevicius. Congratulations on the recent win against Villeurbanne! Can you take us through the team’s performance during the game?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: Thank you! It was a tough match. We started off a bit slow, trailing by three points after the first quarter. However, we managed to regroup and really focus on our defense in the second and third quarters. The players did a fantastic job of executing our game plan, and I’m proud of how we finished the last part of the game, winning it by seven points.
Editor: It sounds like a true team effort. I noticed that Tomas Satoranský had a strong performance with nine points and four assists. How important is his role in the team?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: Tomas is a crucial part of our setup. Not only does he bring experience to the court, but his playmaking and ability to distribute the ball are invaluable. His assists were key in helping us find good shots, and we need that kind of contribution from him every game.
Editor: After a rocky start to the season, the team has now improved to a 4-1 record. What do you think has contributed to this turnaround?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: It’s all about the mindset. After the opening loss, we had some tough discussions and really focused on what we needed to improve. The team has grown closer, and everyone is committed to working hard both in practice and during games. Consistency and teamwork have been our focus, and I think that’s reflective in our results.
Editor: Looking ahead, what are the team’s goals for the rest of the season?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: Our goal is always to compete at the highest level. We want to secure a top position in the league, which will give us the best chance in the playoff race. But more than anything, we want to keep improving every game and really establish our identity as a team.
Editor: Thank you, Coach Jasikevicius, for your insights. We wish FC Barcelona the best of luck in the upcoming matches!
Sarunas Jasikevicius: Thank you! We appreciate the support.
Editor: It sounds like a true team effort. I noticed that Tomas Satoranský contributed significantly with his assists and rebounds. How do you view his performance in this game?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: Tomas was instrumental for us. It’s not just about the points he scored; his vision and ability to facilitate the game were crucial. He provided key assists that helped open up our offense. His two rebounds were also important in helping us secure possession and control the pace of the game.
Editor: Barcelona now stands at a 4-1 record after the win. What does this mean for the team’s confidence moving forward in the European Basketball League?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: We’re definitely building momentum. Each victory bolsters our confidence and strengthens our chemistry on the court. After the initial loss, it was vital for us to bounce back, and we’ve shown resilience. However, we still have a long way to go, and we need to maintain our focus and continue improving.
Editor: In terms of your strategy moving forward, what key areas do you think your team needs to improve on as the season progresses?
Sarunas Jasikevicius: While our defense has improved, we still need to work on our offensive efficiency. We had some lapses where we didn’t capitalize on opportunities. Additionally, we want to create better spacing to allow our shooters more freedom. Consistency will be key as we face tougher opponents ahead.
