Captain Rodney Glasgow Jnr says Sheffield Sharks players need to forget the opportunity they missed in game one of the British Basketball League play-off quarter-finals if they are to have any chance of progressing to the next round this weekend.
Despite holding a nine-point lead against the Leicester Riders early in the fourth quarter of the opening game at the Canon Medical Arena on Sunday afternoon, Sharks unravelled as Leicester went on a 14-0 run and pinched the victory. It means Sheffield need to win both games in the best-of-three series this weekend to advance to the semi-finals, starting with the daunting task of travelling to Leicester on Saturday for a 6pm tip-off.
“You go down at home in a tough one, and guys can be down, but we’ve got to move on from it and learn from it and make the right adjustments for game two.” Glasgow felt the Sharks got away from playing like a team and made some silly mistakes when the pressure got to its highest in the fourth quarter. But as soon as everyone got in the locker room, the second-year captain sought to change the narrative.
