We expected a tough game and we got it. From the middle of the first quarter, the game was tense and I believe that everything was under our control. Both teams gave their all. Great basketball, high concentration. If you look at the free throw percentages, we had 18 out of 18, while they had 22 out of 23. This is a clear indicator of how focused the players were. This is just one game, and we have more. This is how we should play. The most important thing is to stay healthy and see what happens with Bogdan. With this kind of attitude, defense and concentration, we can control our destiny,&#8221; Pe\u0161i\u0107 pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">FIND OUT MORE<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-serbiantimes-info-en wp-block-embed-serbiantimes-info-en\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"Fa34J9llAr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/the-heart-wants-it-the-body-cannot-serbia-is-left-without-a-captain-end-of-the-eurobasket-for-bogdanovic\/\">THE HEART WANTS IT, THE BODY CANNOT: Serbia is left without a captain, end of the EuroBasket for Bogdanovi\u0107!<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;THE HEART WANTS IT, THE BODY CANNOT: Serbia is left without a captain, end of the EuroBasket for Bogdanovi\u0107!&#8221; &#8212; Serbiantimes.info EN\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/the-heart-wants-it-the-body-cannot-serbia-is-left-without-a-captain-end-of-the-eurobasket-for-bogdanovic\/embed\/#?secret=ZmuZlr9m89#?secret=Fa34J9llAr\" data-secret=\"Fa34J9llAr\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The coach of Serbia also referred to the injury of captain Bogdan Bogdanovi\u0107, noting that he is currently not at 100 per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We will see what happens.
