Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
Congrats to UNICS. We started well, controlled the first half, we had energy and stamina. The opponents put more hustle in the second half. We paid a heavy price for McCollums isolation shots – he scored 26 points after the break. Plus turnover figures say a lot: 8-17. It means we had 9 possessions less. We lacked stability. Nobody likes to lose, but sometimes we can use it as losses help get right conclusions. It was a good lesson for us, and we’ll meet UNICS in the second round. And now we have to work, watch the video, and work again.
