Gonzalo García de Vitoria's Casademont does not want to take its foot off the gas, even when the scoreboard is in its favor, determined to remain competitive throughout the game. The ACB has shared a timeout from the red-and-black side's latest win over Leyma Coruña on social media, reflecting the Aragonese team's ambition and the importance it places on maintaining its competitive edge throughout the game.
In the footage, Guillem Vives sends a clear message to his teammates: "Every point matters. We attack on every possession, every point matters." The statement sums up the competitive mindset of a point guard who, despite arriving this summer along with most of the players in the squad, is emerging as the team's leading figure and first captain.
Coach Gonzalo García de Vitoria also speaks, focusing on a specific defensive play as the team looks to keep improving during the game: "Guys, we'll be incredible if we can get a defensive rebound." The coach thus stresses the importance of taking care of the details, even in a game Casademont eventually won comfortably after stepping on the gas at the end of the first quarter and reaching halftime with a commanding 24-point lead.
MARIONA'S RESPONSE
The post also caught the attention of Casademont's women's captain, Mariona Ortiz, who left a brief and direct comment: "Guillem Vives always on my team." Besides once again demonstrating the connection between the club's two teams, her message highlights the point guard's leadership, something the Catalan player knows all about.
