Its in Russian. AK47 called him up after the Clips game and just told him not to let that get to him, that this is the NBA. The guys in the locker room were busting his balls a bit, but in a humorous and friendly way. They were pretty much congratulating him on having had his hazing in the NBA

Yeah some good stuff there. Moz talks a lot about the team in general, definitely worth a read if there is a good translator service around.

About the dunk, Moz just says that he did not expect Griffin to come at him so fast. Moz was late getting there to get his arms up so instead he pushed him a bit, thinking that there was no way Griffin would put the ball in. But he did. Moz said he has never seen anything like that before his life. In the locker room the teammates poked fun at Moz but they also said he wasn't the first and he certainly wasn't the last.

Reading the blog, a part of me feels like Moz might be a bit in over his head here. He definitely has a lot of transition to do. Right now it feels like he just doesn't have enough experience in the American game to be confident.

Some free translation for you of his blog about playing against Shak.
Interesting that things which are huge for him are nohting for us as we are used to NBA game. He is still a baby in bbal sense...


"До матча Д’Антони объяснил мне, как действовать против этой горы. Стараться мешать ему, пытаться перехватить мяч, ни в коем случае не толкаться, а использовать мои главные козыри – мобильность и скорость. И вы знаете, у меня это получилось. Я четко выполнил установку тренера, сумел остановить Шакила и даже один раз обокрал его, когда тот зазевался. Сделал вид, что выпал из борьбы, а потом вырвал мяч у него из рук. После этого обрел уверенность. Не совершал невынужденные фолы, защищался. А в первой четверти взял подбор на чужом щите и вколотил мяч сверху"

Before the game D‘Antony explained to me how to work against this mountain. Try to get in his way, intercept the ball, do not push, but use my main strength – mobility and speed. And you know… I had some success. I precisely execute the coach plan for me, was able to stop Shak and even made one steal, when he lost attention. I made an impression that I am fall off the play and snatched the ball from his hands. Then I get confidence. Stayed away from unforced falls, defended. And in first quote get a rebound and dunk.
