Avdija: In the second quarter, we stopped giving our opponents physical contact and lost focus.

On November 9, during the NBA regular season, the Trail Blazers lost to the Heat 131-136. Avdija accepted an interview with the media after the game.

Talking about the defeat in this game, Avdija said: "The problem is mainly on the defensive end. We need to be more focused. There were too many fouls in the fourth quarter, but I think the problem started in the second quarter. We lost focus a little, and then it snowballed into the fourth quarter. Like I said, winning or losing is a matter of course, but we should have been more focused and tougher tonight."

Reporter: "What problems did you observe in the team during that time?"

Afdija: "Just like I just said. Yes, we lost our aggressiveness, stopped physically confronting our opponents, and stopped exerting pressure throughout the game. In the second quarter, we played a little softly and allowed our opponents to score a lot of easy points in the penalty area. They used this to create a climax, which defeated us. "
