Congratulations to the team, we were better tonight. We played well from the beginning, both offensively and defensively even though we allowed 26 points in the first quarter. We kept the distance well, had good spacing, made 27 assists, almost doubled our opponents in PIR, outrebounded and outran them. The only bad moment is our 20 turnovers, but we made mistakes because we wanted to play fast and we weren’t reading transition situations well. We beat one of the best defensive teams in Euroleague by numbers and desire. I want to thank more than 9 thousand fans who came to support us and created great atmosphere.
