Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
I’d like to say congrats to my team, because simply we were better. We played good basketball. We were dominant. The numbers justified the picture that everybody witnessed. An outcome of 121 to 53 in ranking says a lot about how we competed against a very good and ambitious team, a well-coached team and very good organization with great players. I think this is fourth consecutive game that the team is on track. I like that competitiveness. Defensively today we were very good. We managed to keep one of the best scoring teams beyond the arc and with creation inside and outside to 64 points. Of course, there were also some situations in which we were lucky. They had some open looks and they didn’t punish us, while we shot 92% on twos in first half. We kept that that rhythm and shared the ball, 26 assists, and had 5 to 1 blocks, which shows a lot. The only maybe bad thing was turnovers. We went again to big numbers, and that’s something we have to take care of. When we take care of ball, our team can read a lot of situations and create a lot. For sure, the only thing we don’t like as a team is the turnovers. But nothing is perfect. In basketball it’s difficult to have perfect game. It’s a game of mistakes: the less you make the better you play. Congratulations again to my team.
