In an interview given to Corriere della Sera and Il Foglio, Olimpia Milano president and head coach Ettore Messina had this to say about the team\u2019s poor start in the Euroleague: \u201cAt the root of this disappointing start to the season is an original sin. We don’t have the right driver for our car. Pangos is not the man who can make this team play\u201d<\/p>\n
Messina spoke also about Shabazz Napier, former Milano guard and today at Crvena Zvezda: \u201cNow he continues to send messages to his friends saying he wants to come back. Napier’s merit was to change the team’s personality\u201d.<\/p>\n
Milano coach also said that he thought of resigning from his post in the previous days: \u201cAt the beginning of the week, I went to Giorgio Armani and Leo Dell’Orco to ask if they wanted me to step aside given the results. Mr. Armani said to me, ‘Go to work.’ Mr. Dell’Orco said, ‘Let’s go back to winning.’ I have great gratitude towards them, and I don’t want to disappoint them\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
