Andreas Pistiolis, CSKA head coach:

Pretty satisfied overall, we played very good offensively, we shared the ball, played aggressive, we did what we wanted to do. At the same time I expect more from our defense. 92 points for the team of our defensive qualities are way too much. It’s still early in the season, there are some good thing about our team right now but some thing we really need to improve.
