strength forward Pierre Oriola reiterated this Thursday that “we must not lose sight” that Girona Basketball “is where everyone thought it should be: fighting to stay”. and emphasized that “this should be the goal and what comes out more will be positive.”
Oriola, signed in October, claimed that Girona had “enough arguments” to reach the goal, but “you have to touch the ground with your feet”. because Girona is “a new team” because it is the first season in the Endesa League and “it is a very demanding league”.
The striker added that the team was “happy” with Sunday’s victory over Casademont Zaragoza, its first after five consecutive defeats. “After a win, the week starts differently, with a different energy. The game was generally good,” said Oriola.
“A lot of mistakes were made, but the main thing is that they added up. At this point in the season, a win is like a final, even more so when you’re down and the teams below aren’t working well either,” added the Catalan player.
As for the next match, next week, against last-seeded Baxi Manresa, he said it will be “difficult” because he has “a lot of guns”. “He’s not living a good moment in the game, but that makes him even more dangerous,” he argued after pointing out that he’s played in the title playoffs “virtually every year” in recent years.
On a personal level, after six games, he guaranteed that he was “physically better”. he still has “a lot to shoot” but “the line is good and growing”.
