Basketball player Baikon: “Everyone plays with maximum motivation when they see Zenit in front of them
All teams of the VTB United League play against Zenit with maximum motivation, the striker of the team from St. Petersburg Dwayne Baikon said.
On March 9, Zenit won the “Lokomotiv -Kuban” (92:89).
– Honestly, in the first half I was turned off from the game, but my team was able to make a jerk and return. We were behind, in my opinion, by 17 points. But, in the end, for this we need a team. I am always ready to fight, I’m ready to play. If you do not have throws in the first half, you always have the second. There is a break to regroup. This is the meaning of the game – two halves. Having gathered in the break, I went out with the same attitude, but I was more aggressive. I was able to do what I usually do for the team, and we achieved victory.
– If we talk about games with teams from TOP -4, only CSKA was left. Is there a goal to finish the regular championship in the first place?
– Well, yes, of course, we want to finish the “regular woman” in the first place, but you can’t just look past everyone else for the match with CSKA. You need to approach each game in turn. Everyone plays with maximum motivation when they see Zenit in front of them. Therefore, the goal is just to move day after day. Now, most likely, we have a day off, then we return to training, we go to the parquet. And we just continue to build our game, ”the press service of Zenit quotes Baikon’s words.
Zenit with 30 victories in 35 matches takes second place in the VTB United Tournament table, inferior to the Moscow CSKA in additional indicators.

Flu outbreak in one of Europe’s best clubs. Championship match will be postponed
Greek “Panathinaikos” The team faced serious personnel problems due to the flu epidemic.
Eight players and three members of the coaching staff were immediately diagnosed with influenza A with severe symptoms.
Panathinaikos has shown good form in recent matches, but flu A has spread to Greece and has affected the team, which will most likely lead to the postponement of the Greek championship match against Maroussi, scheduled for December 27.
The problem is not only related to the championship match, but also to the derby against Olympiacos in the Euroleague, which is scheduled for January 2, as the epidemic prevents the team’s normal preparations.
Since many players have severe symptoms, no one can say for sure how the disease will progress and when everyone will be healthy.
The names of the sick people have not been disclosed at this time.
