MADRID, 24 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The player of the Spanish basketball team Oriol Paulí highlighted the great “work philosophy” they have with Sergio Scariolo to achieve a good set-up, facing the next days at the start of the qualifying phase for the 2023 World Cup.
“We are playing to qualify for a World Cup, in the previous one many favorite teams stayed away. We have to be prepared, away from home we have to give everything, it will be a very difficult game, but we are working well to give the best version of us, “he said this Wednesday in statements to the Spanish Federation (FEB) media.
Paulí highlighted the adaptation in each window of new faces and recognized the illusion of being in the squad against North Macedonia and Georgia. “As always, people adapt very quickly, we have a very good work philosophy and in a short time we learn many concepts that allow us to compete, and on an individual level as always it is a pleasure to come here, I am very happy and enjoying the experience” he commented.
“It seems that North Macedonia is a lesser known team, of which we do not know so many players, but we know how difficult it is to play these games, they all want to be in the World Cup and we, as current champions, have to measure up and we know the responsibility that comes with it, “he added.
In addition, Paulí explained that he cannot think of more than this concentration, although the desire is to be in a great tournament like the World Cup. “All of us who are here would like to be able to be in the national team tomorrow in a championship. Yes there is a generational change and there are options, but we have to focus on what we have to do, which is to be here,” he confessed.
“It is a pleasure to be able to play with the national team, we have that responsibility, and that is what we are focused on, making good windows because we know that this has a very big prize,” he concluded.
