Ettore Messina was interviewed by Area52.
Olimpia Milano head coach talked about several issues and also about the re-scheduling of the game against Vitus Bologna in EuroLeague.
The game was initially scheduled the same day of Italy-Spain where Sergio Scariolo is head coach.

“I think that the re-scheduling is a positive news. This is a start of communication between FIBA and EuroLeague. Two gestures have been made that are much more important that it may seem. With mutual availability. We must not belittle this step. Whether this will lead somewhere I don’t know. We would have done some self-harm in which the coach of Eurobasket and World Cup champions had to decide whether to coach the club team or the national team. We hope to build something on it”.
