The FIBA ​​Windows have returned to European basketball, and the teams begin a week in which they will have time to rest and correct mistakes with players who have not traveled with their teams.
"They are rare weeks, because they cut the dynamics of the team, but it can not be good for the players that stay here to rest and train," Alex Urtasun explained, recalling that last year, "after the stoppages, we had uncertainty, but the team gave the face and raised the level ".
The Navarrese is having an important role this season in the UCAM Murcia CB, and believes that after the last matches, the university students are giving a better face.
"The team played better in Malaga, and gave the face during the whole match in a very complicated track, against a fit team," said Urtasun, who says he feels "angry for having fought so hard and not having been able to get a victory that I think we deserved it. "
And is that the Endesa League match against Unicaja Malaga was influenced by the difference in free throws between one team and another (5 for Murcia and 34 from Malaga).
"It's a brutal difference, and it's something that the party chose.
We put in bonuses very early in the third quarter, and they lived on that.
In that period we were playing very well ", assured the Navarrese.
Even so, Urtasun knows that he and his companions have to demand more.
"We are the first we want to continue as we are in the Basketball Champions League and improve in the Endesa League.
We are the first ones that the day against Baxi Manresa we got angry for the defeat, but I think the team is ambitious and can do more ", pointed the university player, who has indicated that in the European competition," they have won difficult matches in very complicated tracks.
It is true that Endesa League could have achieved more victories, and I think the team has a progression that is being seen in recent games. "
As he did last year, Urtasun is playing the occasional costume and lead the team.
"I feel comfortable in that role, although I have not played much in that position in my career.
I think it is one more option and that I can help the team at some moments ", the Navarrese forward has finished.
The next match of the UCAM Murcia CB will be Liga Endesa, on Saturday, December 8, at 20.30 hours against Delteco GBC.
It can be followed live by Movistar +.
