Hapoel Holon held a press conference today (Thursday) ahead of the season opener with the participation of club chairman Eitan Lanciano, coach Stefanos Dadas and captain Guy Panini.
Lanciano: "I'm happy to open another season. We'm sorry it's zoomed in and not the way it should be, but the main thing is that we open and hope it doesn't stop in the middle. I really hope we all enjoy basketball and the crowd gets back to the courts soon."
On the safety net money: "We have found a solution for the very near future, but it can not last too long. I hope you get an advance in early November and we will continue to move forward. This is a problem for all teams, but with us the audience is very respectable in budget. "We will arrive at the beginning of November so that we can move on to the rest of the season. There are fans who are helping and thanks to them we are in relatively good shape at this point in time, but we will need more than that."
"We have a high motivation to build a competitive team that the fans will enjoy watching and will win a lot of games for Hapoel Holon," coach Dadas said in his opening remarks, continuing with the style of play that Holon is expected to play this season.
"My philosophy is to bring in diverse players who all know their role and can play in some positions and play for many minutes. We have a lot of forwards in the 2-meter area who can play in several positions, we don't have real high, but we will attack the teams that play with real high. We have a budget like before and we had to make adjustments. We want to win every game and that is what we will get to do. "
Pnini: "We are very excited to open the season. I hope and believe we will have a good season. It's not that we only train on threes, but the character of the players and the coach leads us to a lot of free throws from three and we have players with good shooting. Sometimes it looks wild, but It's really part of our method and the coach's philosophy. "
Expectations in Europe: "Statistically the change raises the chances of going up, but keep in mind that there are really good teams in our house and there will be tough competition. Every game is critical and one loss is out of place, and you can not fix. There will not be many opportunities to fix."
