Satria Muda Pertamina Jakarta coach Youbel Sondakh said that his team still has time to improve the quality of their game, despite losing 72-77 against Pelita Jaya Jakarta, at the Soemantri Brodjonegoro Student Sports Hall.
He said that the defeat in the 20th week of the Indonesian Basketball League (IBL) 2025 match was used as evaluation material to improve the team's game system, so that it could be more solid in facing the 2025 IBL playoffs , which will start on June 28.
"We still have to work on the little things, on transition defense , offensive rebounds , and a lot more on defense," Youbel said after the game.
He further said that the players had tried to show their best performance in every match.
However, as a team, there are still things that need to be tidied up so that they can be more solid and not easily defeated by opponents.
"Now the problem is that we are still looking for the best line-up of players who can be more unified or cohesive, after that it is related to player rotation," said the Indonesian basketball legend.
