After a bad start, with nine losses in a row, Comunicaciones reacted and now has four wins in a row. San Lorenzo will be the challenge this Monday. The “aurinegro” point guard stressed that the good results are a boost to strengthen the group.
Luis Cequeira, communications base, spoke after the fourth consecutive victory of the Mercedes team in the National Basketball League, this time by beating Obras by 82-49 with 7 points, 5 assists and 2 rebounds from Chaco.
“I had to injure myself before and arrive as a foreigner and settle down and I wanted to give peace of mind, but sometimes, when the results do not give, it is difficult. We needed to win to trust and stay united. Little by little we settle down. Now the minutes are of quality and not quantity. After the stoppage, we did not exceed 64 points and that is because we returned to the defense, “said the perimeter player by way of introduction.
Then, the “aurinegro” player, who has considerably raised his level with the passing of the matches, said: “It is played every two days and there is a very great wear. We were able to rotate the team and today it was key in my position to defend Zurbriggen , which is having a great season. We did a good teamwork. They didn’t find the game and we took them out of circulation. Except for the first few minutes, then it was all ours tactically and psychologically. We took them 10, 15 and we continue to defend the same. We did not slacken and we played the 40 minutes, and that is why the difference was so wide. To win we had to play well, we knew that with the full squad, the minutes had to be of quality and the rotation of the coaching staff greater “.
As for what things changed with respect to the previous bubble system, which did not have the desired results, the popular “Junior” said: “Everything changed a lot. We don’t see each other so much with colleagues. In this context, everything is more strange. it gets worse and when you win, the climate is different. That is the feeling generated by the current situation due to the pandemic. ”
For Cequeira, “all the games are a challenge” and he was ready for the one to come, which will be this Monday from 7pm, at the Obras stadium, facing the multi-champion, San Lorenzo. “It is a team that is always a candidate. We had to start the first stage very badly, so we really want to continue improving.”
Finally, he offered his point of view on the arrival of one of the outsiders, Adam Sliver. “He adapted very well to the group. In his first experience in La Liga he played a great game. We help him feel that way,” he concluded by affirming.
