Manolo ... How does the team to the first day?
Well, we shall see, in principle, with the decline we Bojan Bogdanovic, which I think is not going to be at least in the first four games.
We are also a bit worried because Taquan (Dean) was a hit in the last friendly match against Granada and really has been training at half throttle.
On Monday and Tuesday did not practice, but these last two days he has trained, had to stop training in the final.
So let's see how it evolves from here until Sunday.
And then, in general, physically I think the team is good, has passed all phases who had to go through to get in optimum conditions to the party and in that sense, I think the team is good.
Another thing is perhaps the issues of a strategic and more tactical, where I think we still need to assimilate and improve in many aspects.
Do you have a problem generating an absence and a half on the outside shot?
Well, it's no sensible, while in the training of these weeks we have had to change many things.
So also with the elements we just and we had to raise youth players to train.
Looking to match a rotation is less, which will force us some time to play a little differently.
Something we have to do because we have only three field to cycle and we will provide.
I believe that although Taquan (Dean) will be, will be weighed a bit, because the coup that brought the truth is that has affected him considerably.
Fuenlabrada is a direct rival ...
Yes, in theory and today, we are teams that are involved in a part or a dimension of competition where what it is to get tenure.
Then, there is no doubt that from the first day of matches between opponents of this caliber are more than just a game.
Clearly you never know what will happen, but it seems clear that in the competition, direct clashes between teams who play the same weight will have the time to get better or worse since the face of permanence.
Then, if an important game, not like any other ...
Do you think it is always a mystery how a team will perform during the season?
In my case yes, because we have been very uneven from one party to another, even within the same party.
So we have two very distinct sides.
We face a team that when playing, especially at the defensive intensity and aggressiveness ... is a team that can dominate the scoreboard and the game, because it can run, and scoring easy baskets because that's certainly a bit of our personality.
And then there's a little computer that also have been a team that at any given time can not concentrated enough defensively to fit and easy baskets, so it is very much to play a game very slow pace, since certainly not the best for us.
So that kind of game is also played within the same party and a party for another.
You have to try that during the passage of time, on the other side prevails.
If it is true that there is little mystery, but also behave the same teams during the preseason than during the season.
The mentality of the player as much as you try to get it, is not the same.
And the players know that the league starts on Sunday and everyone knows that what counts is what counts.
The preseason and will add nor subtract you is to try things, so that everyone plays, so that everyone take the way ... what sum and what remains is what we do from now on and that the player knows it.
Undoubtedly.
So ... is also a mystery what you'll find
Well, I more or less what I have been watching, I know approximately what kind of game makes Fuenlabrada and above all, knowledge of the players also have it.
There are players who also know, though they have new additions to last year ... players like Oleson, Mainoldi or Ramos, already, but has returned, but ... we have a fairly accurate knowledge of them.
What is clear is that long-Fuenlabrada in this regard has also been a bit like us, "because in his track has always been a competitive team, very difficult to win and always has been based Fuenlabrada stay in the victories achieved in his track and his track behaves differently, as it almost did not win last year out ... we know what we can find in Fuenlabrada, we know that is a very warrior, very involved and also has a very faithful a very difficult field, with much pressure and that to motivate them.
We know what we will find a level of play and level of environment.
Do you think it is a disadvantage to have made so many changes?
Well, I do not want to think it is a disadvantage, I think it is a fact and as such needs to be addressed.
I do not worry now that situation.
There is no doubt that when you change a lot to a team and players come to you site and mentalities and different philosophies of play, it takes a while to adapt.
Lamont is not the same (Barnes) that for instance Jesse (Young), because they come from quite different basketballs.
So, that when combined power shows.
Possibly one way to play is better suited to how we share our way of playing on the track and that takes a while for me but that does not represent any kind of excuse, we've been playing seven weeks and we all know what we have to do and the case is be committed to do so.
