Bertram Derthona towards Mens Sana Siena. Lorenzo Pansa: “It will be fundamental to be able to have a strong emotional and technical impact on the match”
Everything is ready at the Juventus home for the fifteenth day of the regular season, in which Bertram Derthona will face Mens Sana Siena tomorrow, Sunday 7 January, at 18pm at the PalaOltrepo' in Voghera.
Coach Lorenzo Pansa wanted to describe the opponents: “We face a team made up of experienced Italians, plus two of the most talented Americans in our League, as evidenced by Ebanks' second place in the scorers' rankings. It was precisely the performances of the two foreigners that made the difference, positively and negatively, in Mens Sana's progress in the championship: it will therefore be essential to be able to have a strong emotional and technical impact on the match to prevent them from getting heated."
The Juventus coach then focused attention on the main weapons of Mens Sana Siena: "The direction is entrusted to Saccaggi and Borsato, two players who guarantee quality and experience to the department, while among the wingers the solidity of Casella and Sandri is added Elston Turner's crystalline talent. Regarding the forward package, Devin Ebanks and Lestini are dangerous from the three-point range. Ebanks also knows how to use his athleticism and dynamism to attack the rim both front and back to the basket. Vildera's toughness and Marko Simonovic's talent complete the package of the big men."
