Congratulations to Barcelona for the win. Obviously, we can say a lot of things about the game. We opened the game with a little bit more concern - both teams, in the first quarter. Then we had a small period of losing our composure. They were missing layups, they were getting the ball back, scoring and this 25-14 hurt us. We talked a little bit more in halftime, how we were supposed to play basketball. We came strong in the third quarter with concrete ideas on what to do defensively and offensively. We brought the game to +10 and then Barcelona put a lot of pressure on us. We could have handled this situation better.
