Congratulations to our team with the first home victory of the season and thank you to the fans who came today to support us. We played pretty good most part of the game, defended well, especially in the beginning of first and third quarters. We were able to contain Cooper who is the main piece of the opponents’ machine. He did make 11 assists but we forced him to 6 turnovers. Krasny Oktyabr is very skilled offensively still we allowed them to score just 67 points, which tells about our focus. For sure, they had some runs and we have to work on consistency in our game. We have to play better as a team, to get used to each other and certain situations, to get our injured players back. Now we start to prepare to a couple of difficult games that we have next week.
