Head coach “Nizhny Novgorod Pari” Sergei Kozin has explained why he did not join Zoran Lukic’s headquarters in the Russian national basketball team this summer.
— Summer training for the Perm Games overlapped with pre-season work. I had a new coaching staff, a new team, and without a head coach, of course, it would have been difficult. That’s why we spoke with Zoran, as head coach he fully understands how this should happen. So he said: “Sergey, don’t even think about it. During this summer period you have to be with the team, preparing the team as much as possible for the season.
Before the Moscow Games we called him and he said that he saw that the club was playing well, the work was more or less structured and there was an opportunity to join the national team. Naturally, I accepted and felt that I still wanted to be part of the national team. We talked about this a long time ago, when we were just starting this work, so I gladly responded to this job offer,” Kozin said in “Championship.”
Kozin was appointed head coach of the Nizhny Novgorod club in May.
