First participation in the Basketball World Cup
Every World Championship is very important for all players. I had an excellent experience in Spain, playing with NBA players who played a lot and won a lot. So I was very happy with my participation. It was amazing.
Friendship with Herrmann
I was very happy when Herrmann signed with Flamengo. Having another Argentine player here on the team is great for me and everyone. Besides being a player with a lot of experience and quality, his style of play is also very beneficial for our team. Now I'll speak a lot more Spanish in the locker room (laughs). But I'm also helping him speak Portuguese better.
Expectations for the Intercontinental Cup
It's a global tournament, decided by two very important matches for Brazilian and South American basketball. We have high expectations and have to play knowing we can win, but it will be very difficult. The Maccabi players are Euroleague champions, we have to prepare hard to win, but we have a chance. So we must keep improving, always focusing on our style of play. We can make history.
