On Friday, our team’s forward Andrei Kirilenko added to a brilliant campaign by leading CSKA to the 2012 Final Four with a fantastic performance in a 71-73 road win at Gescrap BB. His 23 points and 8 rebounds equaled a performance index rating of 29, which made him the Playoffs Game 4 bwin MVP.

This is also the fourth time – and second in the playoffs – Kirilenko has earned the distinction, which is also most in the league. Kirilenko scored 23 points and grabbed 8 rebounds – the last board to clinch the win and Final Four berth for the Russian champs. He only missed 4 shots and also dished 2 assists and had 1 steal in another impressive outing.

The star of the losing side in that game, Aaron Jackson, had the second-best index rating of all players in Game 4 of the playoffs with 24.
