Guy thanks for talking to German Hoops again Last Monday you beat Magdeburg 85-78. This game was a lot more difficult to win than the result shows. Magdeburg is a newcomer, but a very feisty team that never gives up. What was key for getting the win?

The Key in those kind of games is stick together as a team fighting threw bad moments in the game, and play a tough defense which we were able to do at the end.

BV Chemnitz is on a 7 game winning streak and in first place in the German Pro A. Would you have thought early in training camp that the team could start the season so positive?

I knew we had a good and competitive team that would not give up easy in any game.

What has been the secret behind the seven game winning streak? Some of the wins were blow outs, but then again other games against Leverkusen and NBC were very close games.

I think we just try to play hard every game and try to win, we had the luck to succeed in the last 7 games and we hope to keep going.

How happy have you been with your own play? You are averaging 6,7ppg, 4,0rpg and 4,8apg. You have the playmaking under control and doing a good job, but could you be scoring more?

I really dont concentrate on my own numbers as long as the team is wining, people know I’m part of the success as my job is to run our game and make my teammates better.

How important has Brandon Robinson been? He is giving MVP stats averaging 24,0ppg, 9,3rpg and 2,8apg. The forward is the second best assist man on the team.

Brandon is a great scorer and our go to guy, and he helps us a lot, with those numbers its pretty clear that he is a important part in the team.

Donald Lawson and Brandon Robinson are a super 1-2 punch under the boards averaging half of the teams rebounding. Will these guys get even stronger as the season progresses? And how important has American Trevor Noack been? He seems to be a little of the unsung hero as his effort is in the shadow of Robinson and Lawson?

We have a lot of good players in our team, Trevor is definitely one of them, I dont think no one is in the shadow of no one, and we are  one team, and in a team there is also roles, and in our team in every day everyone can be a top scorer in different games.

Head coach Felix Schreier is 3 months younger than you. He doesn´t seem to have any problems reaching the team and having his players trust his work. What is it like playing for such a young coach?

First of all you cant even tell he is so young, he knows how to run a team, he know exactly what he wants from us, and he also has some experience in our league and in a higher level of basketball. He Is doing a very good job.

The next game is against the Kirchheim Knights who have a record of 6-2. They have two very talented Americans with Bryan Smithson and David Byrd, but they grab 9 less rebounds as a team than BV Chemnitz. Last week Frankfurt dominated the boards even though Trier rebounds a lot better as a team than Frankfurt on paper. Will the inside game be vital for getting the win?

That is the reason why paper is only paper, at the end we talk on the court and it doesn´t matter what the paper say, in basketball  everything can happen, I know we work hard and prepare well and hope for a good result.

What was the last DVD movie that you saw?

I have been watching the TV show the Office lately.

Thanks Guy for the chat.
