– The coaches made a change to the starting five. Zhbanov’s appearance in the starting lineup meant that Perasovic, after conceding 100 points in Game 4, would pay close attention to defence. Pascual simply had a choice. Perasovich was wrong with Zhbanov, resulting in two substitutions in the first five minutes. Zhbanov, an excellent personal man, comes out in his place and Knight starts to prove excellent in defense. After that, Dimitrievich flew.
He’s a good leader, brilliant with the ball, he gives passes, but today he’s a heroic hero.
In basketball, there is an expression that the team “hit the putty”. “Zenith” hit the putty, they did not score their shots, when, passing under the ring, such a technician Caleb Homesley sprawled under the ring – this is not a goal. It’s the effect of a falling domino, we didn’t score, everyone fell.
Zenit’s victory in the fourth game does not mean that the team is much stronger and will win the series. Today UNICS was stronger and smarter, it was striking, Gomelsky said on .
