The coach: "No one will give us anything. We have to handle the pressure well". Coach Caja: "We are on a mission. We need soldiers who are always ready"

He is not satisfied with the surprising positive streak, let alone the climb up the rankings: and woe to those who sin of modesty in thinking only of victory. Because it is always necessary to calibrate it to the opponent (Vigevano is third to last in the standings, as underlined by coach Caja) and to the mentality of a team who has planned a goal and intends to achieve it. The coach wants to shake up the team, or at least some elements.

"We have a mission – explains the technician –, but we need soldiers who are always ready. Some people still don't understand this aspect, that is, that if you make a mistake it's not a problem. Now there's no room for frivolity, there's no need for excuses, you have to be tough and tenacious. And instead 'the boo here', 'the boo there': war is not waged like this. Just think that there are people so focused that they are able to walk on burning coals".

A victory decisive and a springboard for Sunday's trip to Brindisi. But something more is needed. "Certainly, our positive streak continues, we must know that every game is a battle and no one gives anything away, as demonstrated by those who come to play here, who always try to do their best. To win, however, you need to handle the pressure well: some succeed, others less so. Some have been more solid, others more subdued. Which is then the mirror of what you see in the weekly work: there are those who perform better and those who struggle more".

DEFENSE as an element of identity of this team, but the maneuvers ofattack they have to improve. "Defensively we did quite well and we made few mistakes and conceded little. But in attack we played at 50 percent. Of course, we saw an excellent game from Aradori, who played at A1 and Euroleague level, as well as Mian. Vencato was very useful and played a great game, Bolpin also did well, who was at a very high level defensively against Mack. But others were not on form."
