Ettore Messina, head coach of Milano, shared his impressions after his team’s win against Alba Berlin in the EuroLeague round 20th.
Milano managed to defeat the German team after a tough battle, and the experienced Ettore Messina was satisfied with his team’s performance.
“To win, it required an enormous physical effort from the players, especially after a very challenging week and the game on Sunday in Trento. Playing against Alba Berlin is never easy because they play with ease, always shoot at good percentages, so you need to be patient, defend, and control rebounds. In the second half, our defensive level grew significantly, and in offense, we created better spacing, scoring 45 points. Melli supported the team from the first possession, then it’s easy to think about Flaccadori’s performance and his second half.

Finally, Devon Hall was exceptional. In recent games, he has consistently shown great decision-making, energy, defense, and scoring. I believe he is benefiting from having two ball handlers alongside him, allowing him to play with less pressure, shoot more calmly, and focus on defense. We are doing more with Napier and Flaccadori, but also Bortolani, who is another player who can create from the dribble.”
