This is my job: coming to the office every morning and giving my all. I don\u2019t have an issue with winning or trophies; my problem is something else\u2014excessive competitiveness. I need to learn to be calmer,&#8221; Saras stated during the press conference following the 82-79 victory over Valencia Basket.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5\">&#8220;The point is, I\u2019m never satisfied, and that is a limitation. I try to stay composed, but I am just as competitive today as I was at the start of my career. I am well aware that this is one of my weaknesses. Of course, it\u2019s also one of my greatest strengths, but it remains a weakness nonetheless. So, I move forward: I show up to work and do my duty, now at Fenerbah\u00e7e just as I did before at Barcelona or \u017dalgiris. Everything we\u2019ve won so far belongs in a museum; now, the only thing that matters is trying to win again. That\u2019s all.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0160ar\u016bnas Jasikevi\u010dius has signed a three-year contract extension with Fenerbah\u00e7e, and the Lithuanian coach took the opportunity to discuss what this new deal means to him<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":177,"featured_media":443409,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[315,199],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-479335","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bsl","category-euroleague"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/Grp3jf_XQAIcAEE.jpg","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479335","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/177"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=479335"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479335\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/443409"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=479335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=479335"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=479335"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=479335"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=479335"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=479335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
