Messina: the huge number of offensive rebounds that they grabbed was the story of the game

Olimpia Milan coach Ettore Messina talks after the home loss against CSKA Moscow: “I congratulated the players because they had a great game. It’s obvious, the huge number of offensive rebounds that they grabbed was the story of the game. They were very physical and aggressive, at the same time we probably didn’t do enough to prevent them from getting all those rebounds. We had the chance to win the game at the end on a free throw. It didn’t happen. We cannot kill ourselves for that, we move on with a sense of pride”.
