After the starting bubble of the Ukrainian championship among the High league teams finished, the head coach of Prometey Oleksandr Pashchenko summed up its results for his wards.
    
“I have double impressions of our performance. I would like to see more quality in the game. We played at our home arena but not everything worked for us. We made too many wrong decisions in breakthroughs and, as for me, acted not very well in offence from the perimeter.

As for our actions in defence, there were some great moments. We wanted our rivals to have as many turnovers as possible and we achieved that. On the other hand, we had 8-9 turnovers but our opponents had more though. Overall, I am satisfied with the fact we gained victories in all matches although, as usually, we have things to work on. We will improve both defence and offence.

There was no weakening in out guys’ actions. It can be, primarily in theirs mind. I always tell the players that if we connect basketball gyrus of our brain to the arms and legs, we will have needed result. We had an evidence in the match against Sokoly: there was a bad start, but then we more or less came to game.

About absence of Pyrohov in two recent matches. As of today, his injury is not completely apparent. Something pinched somewhere. A detailed examination is ahead. He is feeling slightly better now but still there is some soreness. Unfortunately, it is impossible without injuries in basketball. Players are constantly under huge physical exertion and injuries are unavoidable”.
