Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:

We were very serious so congratulations to the team. We played with expected concentration and huge motivation. We respect the game, we respect the league, we respect ourselves, this is why we were pushing and playing not just for the score but for us. I was not happy with 7 turnovers in the first half and another 6 in the last quarter, it costed us in terms of shooting the ball better and making the plays. But overall I am happy, we were concentrated, we changed couple of defenses and we managed to keep good shooting team really low regarding the percentage.
