00:00Luka, hello. Daja Lampret, POP TV.
00:04Can you tell us how do you calm down in the group around you,
00:08especially in this final series and especially
00:11because there was some criticism in the last days before the competition?
00:14I try not to look at it.
00:17Criticism will always be there.
00:20I'm here to enjoy, to play basketball, and that's my goal.
00:26I know it won't always be nice.
00:29You don't always play well, but I enjoy playing basketball.
00:56We play with pace, and that helps them.
01:00I'm here to help them in every way I can,
01:04so we've just got to play like that.
01:08Luka, Dave McBeneman, ESPN.
01:10How does the outlook change now in the series that you have a win under your belt
01:14and you have a few more days of life headed to Boston?
01:18It doesn't change anything.
01:20Like I said at the beginning of this series, it's first to four,
01:23and we're going to believe until the end.
01:26So we've just got to keep going.
01:28I have big belief in this team that we can do it,
01:32so we've just got to keep believing.
01:37Tim Reynolds in the back.
01:38Luka, Tim Reynolds with the AP.
01:40You've said all series about the belief that you have that this team has.
01:45I guess how much more satisfying is it, number one,
01:48that people saw why that belief is there, but also this wasn't just you.
01:52You had a big first half,
01:53but you had a lot of guys do a lot of big things tonight.
01:56How critical is that for this group?
01:58Yeah, it's big.
01:59It's basketball.
02:00There's five people on the floor, so that's huge for us.
02:04Everybody played with a lot of energy, and that's how we've got to do it.
02:08We've got to think the same way in game five in Boston.
02:12Over here on the left, Sarah.
02:14Hey, Luka.
02:15Over the last four games,
02:16what's the biggest thing you've learned about yourself
02:18and what it's going to take to continue to win on this stage?
02:25I don't know what to learn for myself.
02:29Ask me next day.
02:30I'll come up with the answer.
02:32I don't know really right now.
02:34But it's going to take everything.
02:36It's going to take energy and especially energy
02:42because it's late in the season.
02:43We played a lot of games,
02:45so it's going to take.
02:46We've got to stay together in lockdown.
02:49Here in the middle.
02:50Hi, Luka.
02:51Robert Poreda from the Slovenian Press Agency.
02:53Today, you had the support of the president of the Slovenian government.
02:57Did you see each other?
02:58Did you hear each other?
02:59Will you tell me something useful?
03:01Yeah, quickly.
03:02Before the game, I said hello, so we saw each other.
03:10Tanya on the left.
03:12Luka, Tanya Ganguly, New York Times.
03:15Jason came in here before the game
03:17and gave sort of an impassioned defense of you.
03:20He said a lot of the criticism you've been receiving
03:22has become personal and is a little unfair,
03:25and I'm wondering, did he say any of that to you?
03:28And whether he did or not,
03:30what does it mean to you that he had your back like that?
03:33No, he didn't say anything to me especially,
03:36but that speaks a lot about him.
03:39He always has players back.
03:42He always supports us,
03:44so that's a big thing to have a coach like that.
03:46First row here.
03:47Daniel Schwarzman, Luka Televisa.
03:49You said the key was to have fun.
03:51How much fun did you have?
03:52Did you enjoy it?
03:53And how special was it for you tonight?
03:55Yes, very special.
03:56I think not only I had a lot of fun,
03:59but the whole team.
04:01The whole team was having fun,
04:03and that's the key for our games going forward.
04:09Right here on the left, fifth row.
04:11Your first win in the NBA Luka finals here.
04:15The fans are still supporting you, they're still excited.
04:18How do you feel?
04:19And also with a special guest, Sergio Ramos, at home tonight.
04:23Thank you and good night.
04:24Yes, the people were great today,
04:26in the third game as well,
04:28and it means a lot that they still believe in us.
04:32And the truth is, yes,
04:34it's been an honor to have Sergio here,
04:37a legend in Madrid,
04:39so it's been a great honor.
05:06Just watching him grow was unbelievable.
05:10It's fun having him out there with me,
05:14and calling him my teammate,
05:15it's unbelievable and it's a pleasure to have him.
05:18And he's 50% of the season,
05:20so he might as well keep shooting.
05:23Last row.
05:24He's 1 for 2, right?
