Maccabi Tel Aviv star Omri Caspi talks about his return to the pitches after a year (Maccabi Tel Aviv)
Omri Caspi spoke today (Thursday) ahead of his return to the Euroleague after a long and serious injury that sidelined him for nearly a year.
Caspi said: "Physically I feel great, my body and knee are in excellent condition. The most difficult stage right now is fatigue and getting back into playing fitness. Until three weeks ago I did not run for almost 12 months, there is recovery from training and it takes time to get fit tomorrow. It's exciting to be part of the group, I'm already waiting for that. "
Caspi, who also suffered a number of not-so-simple injuries during his time in the NBA, spoke of the thoughts that went through his mind: "My thought was whether to retire because the body does not allow me to play. It is definitely in my discourse with myself. We went to the doctor "In this analysis, and along the way, everyone, me and the system, believed that we would be rehabilitated and I could go back to playing. I'm glad we're at the beginning of the rehearsal process, and I feel great."

Caspi added: "Sometimes the hardest time is when you sit there and want to help the team. In the first game I couldn't fall asleep the night before, and there was a lot of excitement at noon, but slowly getting down to the ground. It's great fun."
On the club he said: "We have excellent human material, the team and system give full backing, believe in the team we have in the locker room, both in coach and method. We had bad luck at the beginning of this season and also injuries, important players in last year's rotation did not play and it is a quarter of the rotation, it It's important for the continuity of a team from year to year. There are many more games in the Euroleague, we believe there is change and there was already in Valencia, these were games where everything that could go wrong went wrong. All sorts of things happened. I hope that with good energy and defense, sticking to the method and everything needed The victories. "
Caspi also talked about his return to matters: "I really try not to do anything special, the very experience and being on the court, whether it's the guidance in the little things, a rebound, a simple post-up basket, these are things that happen naturally to me after 15 years in professional basketball. We are close where we want to be, we had losses linked. always the leader of the team this game, the little things that I can add to this experience, another boat, to implement our strategy.
For me at least main focus is to feel good and get in shape. Once I get into shape, then my game It will not be expressed in athleticism or unnecessary explosion, but the little things. From there came my game, I do not put pressure on myself to try to prove anything. I will do the things I want to do, rebound and help with defense, from there the output will come. "I feel good and I feel I can play at a high level."
