Mornar started with the training camp ahead of new season

At the first practice, Derek Needham, Milko Bjelica and Sead Šehović did not appear, since they are preparing for the World Cup with Montenegro National team, as well as Jacob Pullen, who will join the team on 23 August and Darrington Hobson, who is late due to the technical problems.

At the first practice Brandis Raley-Ross, Mirza Begić, Damir Markota, Nemanja Vranješ, Uroš Luković, Vukota Pavić, Marko Mugoša, Ivan Jelenić, Radoje Vujošević and Lazar Pavićević were present, as well as several members of the youth categories, which will be practicing with the team until it is completed.

Ahead of the light practice, the players were addressed by club’s President Đorđije Pavićević, head coach Mihailo Pavićević and Sports Director, Drago Spičanović

“There is nothing new for me to say about the roster that Đorđije composed in this transfer period. There is now way back now, only forward. The names on the roster are bringing high goals. Of course, we will go step by step. First, we wish to create great atmosphere within the team and to prepare well. If we succeed, the quality of the players will be revealed. It is a huge obligation for us in the coaching staff and there is no room for an alibi. I did not search for an alibi even in much worse situations, but this is a situation that every coach is dreaming of. I am proud of what Đorđije did in transfer period and I am proud to be able to coach this kind of a group of players,” Mihailo Pavićević told, revealing the goals of the team, which will be the Montenegrin double crown and to go as far as possible in both ABA League and Basketball Champions League.

Mornar započeo pripreme na novu sezonu

Košarkaši Mornara počeli su danas pripreme za, kako su je ljubitelji „kraljice igara“ pod Rumijom već prozvali - adrenalinsku sezonu.

Na prozivci nije bilo Dereka Nidama, Milka Bjelice i Seada Šehovića koji se sa reprezentacijom pripremaju za predstojeći Mundobasket, kao ni Džejkoba Pulena koji stiže 23. avgusta i Daringtona Hobsona koji kasni zbog tehničkih problema.

Na prvom treningu bili su od novajlija Brendis Rejli Ros, Mirza Begić i Damir Markota, starosjedioci Nemanja Vranješ, Uroš Luković, Vukota Pavić, Marko Mugoša, Ivan Jelenić, Radoje Vujošević i Lazar Pavićević kao i više članova juniorskog tima Mornara koji će trenirati sa ekipom dok ne bude kompletirana.

Prije lakšeg treninga, igračima su se obratili predsjednik kluba Đorđije Pavićević, trener Mihailo Pavićević i sportski direktor Drago Spičanović.

„Nemam šta novo da kažem, sa ovim rosterom koji je Đoko obezbijedio u prelaznom roku. Nema nazad, samo naprijed. Imena igrača u rosteru nameću ciljeve. Oni su najveći. Normalno, idemo korak po korak. Prije svega da napravimo dobru atmosferu u ekipi i dobro se pripremimo. Ako uspijemo u tome, kvalitet igrača će doći do izražaja. Na nama u stručnom štabu je velika obaveza, nemamo prostora za alibi. Nisam alibi tražio ni u mnogo gorim situacijama, a ova je situacija kakvu bi mnogi treneri poželjeli. Ponosan sam na ovo što je Đoko uradio u prelaznom roku, a ponosam sam i što ću imati ovakvu grupu igrača ,“ kazao je Mihailo Pavićević, naglašavajući da će Mornara napasti duplu krunu u Crnoj Gori i da će nastojati da što duže igra u ABA ligi i Ligi šampiona.
